My favorite subjects

In this semester I had two subjects that helped me to know how to develop my projects and I liked them a lot for the topics that we talked about in class. The first corresponds to "Urban Sustainability". In this subject we talk about the characteristics that make a sustainable city, the plot or structure they have and the elements that compose it, such as its buildings, its public spaces, the means of transport and the spaces dedicated to them.

The second subject is "Morphology, structure and materialization", in which we analyze what is structure and construction. We study pillar and beam system, braced system and confined masonry and its behavior by supporting static loads such as the weight of the roof, and the dynamic forces that are wind and earthquakes. We also learned to design them depending on the requirements.

These two topics helped me a lot to understand the conformation and functioning of a city with a well planned design, favoring the people who inhabit it to have a comfortable life and to understand the behavior of the materials depending on the place where it is located. , its use and both the elements that make up the structure and the construction system.
