Summary: | Motivation. Modern design practice, where an architect works with engineers in a large team, lacks optimization. If collaboration between the professions of architecture (A.) and engineering (E.) were improved, it would result in more efficient structures. Collaboration can be improved by professionals who have training and/or experience in both professions. The concept of architectural engineering (AE) appeared in the late 19th c., and the profession has increasingly been developing from that time on. There were a number of designers in the building environment who had been educated in both professions and who successfully practiced on the border between A. and E. The Aim of the research is to develop a competence model (CM) for the AE professional, and scientifically substantiate the subject matter of the undergraduate AE program. The Scope of the study is the analysis of collaboration issues relating to the civil engineering (CE) and A. professions, and also of the training issues of the AE professional. Results. The authors developed an AE professional competence model. |
