This article presents the potentialities of architectural modeling in the learning process of Fundamentals of Structural Systems Modeling subject—EAU (Escola de Arquitetura e Urbanismo), incorporating new learning methods, making use of circular reference processes. The low quality of the projects in terms of design, representation and compatibility are still the major problems in architecture. Despite of CAD, BIM and other modeling softwares, mistakes have been detected in many types of projects (architecture, structure, building facilities, etc.). The origin of these occurs in a systematic way, due to the lack of knowledge of the structural and digital possibilities, associated with the non-valuation of the modeling systems and the collaborative actions integrated in this process, which can be already experienced at the beginning of the future architect’s education. The experiences and the tasks performed demonstrate that this combination reinforces the theoretical concepts, enhancing significantly the creative potential in integration with the learning of structural systems. |
