Paper ID #27512Integrating Shelter Design and Disaster Education in Architectural Curricu-lumDr. Sudarshan Krishnan, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign Sudarshan Krishnan specializes in the area of lightweight structures. His current research focuses on the structural design and behavior of cable-strut systems and transformable structures. His accompanying interests include the study of elastic and geometric structural stability. He teaches courses on the planning, analysis and design of structural systems. He has also developed a new course on deployable structures and transformable architecture. As an architect

research. The ACT club participated in designcompetitions in the past, and a number of members expressed their interest to volunteer in theresearch process, as the club seeks to engage in diverse architectural activities to gain experienceand knowledge in the industry.Figure 1.1 Volunteers building raised beds Figure 1.2 Volunteers building micro-hydroponic systemFigure 1.3 Volunteers building micro-farm system prototype Figure 1.4 Resident volunteers plantingThe planning of the project started by procuring startup funds through local grants. Theapplication included a detailed material list and cost analysis as exhibited in Table 1.1. Thisprocurement can serve as a point of reference for the multiple research funding opportunities

loads. However, the methodology was applied in 6 different modules thatcovered trusses and frames, continuous beams, buckling in columns, in-plan, and out-of-plane wallbehaviors, long-span systems, and shells. The exercises were introduced over 2 weeks. Data collectedwere used to reflect on the introduction of educational tools into an otherwise conventionalmathematical class. The tools introduced can be divided into two categories: 1) simulation software forreal-time simulation and 2) small-scale models for physical demonstrators. The first category was usedto help students to comprehend dissimilarities between didactical problems and real-world applicationsby visualizing and experiencing structural behaviors in a virtual environment.

. The purpose of this activity is to get the students thinking aboutthe relationship between a design on paper and the restriction of what is possible to build in thefield. Furthermore, this planning activity was meant to enhance the students’ reflective learningexperience after they run into trouble when they built their piece in the next activity. [Figure 3] Design Critique Session (Left); Idea Sketch Exercise (Right)3.2 Build Activity DetailsThe build activity was scheduled in two sessions: the first taking up the remainder of the firstday, and the second during the morning of the second day. Students were instructed to finishtheir molds by the first day so that plaster could be poured immediately the following day.Students
