2. Pre-Requisites
Prerequisites not required, although it is advisable to have successfully completed the subjects of the first semester included in the syllabus, especially those related to physics and mathematics.
3. Justification in the curriculum, relation to other subjects and to the profession
The physical foundations of the Building Engineering are divided into two subjects within the block of basic subjects of the degree. In the construction of a building not only the structural and constructive part must be contemplated, but it must be provided with a certain conditioning: thermal, acoustic, electrical and systems of fluids supply and evacuation, so in this subject framed in the Second semester is intended to show the physical laws for the development of training and understanding of the technical facilities that must be faced in the construction of a building.

8. Evaluation criteria and Grading System
| Evaluation System | Continuous assessment | Non-continuous evaluation * | Description |
| Test | 80.00% | 80.00% | The written tests will be weighted to obtain a numerical score between 0 and 10. This test can be divided into partial tests carried out throughout the course. This qualification will represent 80% of the total grade of the subject. |
| Practicum and practical activities reports assessment | 20.00% | 20.00% | The exercises delivered, together with the laboratory practices and their public exposure, will be rated from 0 to 10. This qualification means 20% of the total qualification of the subject. |
| Total: | 100.00% | 100.00% |
According to art. 4 of the UCLM Student Evaluation Regulations, it must be provided to students who cannot regularly attend face-to-face training activities the passing of the subject, having the right (art. 12.2) to be globally graded, in 2 annual calls per subject , an ordinary and an extraordinary one (evaluating 100% of the competences).
Evaluation criteria for the final exam:
-
Continuous assessment:The final exam will be a global test that allows to overcome separately both the practical and the theoretical / practical contents developed throughout the course for that student who has not passed any of the partial evaluation tests.
-
Non-continuous evaluation:The final exam will be a global test that allows to overcome separately both the practical and the theoretical / practical contents developed throughout the course for that student who has not passed any of the partial evaluation tests.
Specifications for the resit/retake exam:
The final exam will be a global test of the whole subject.
Specifications for the second resit / retake exam:
The final exam will be a global test of the whole subject.

| General comments about the planning: | The topics will be taught consecutively adapting to the actual calendar that is held in the semester in which the subject is located. With a periodicity of two weeks mandatory tasks will be proposed on the subjects taught. A progress test is scheduled for the first week after Easter holidays equivalent to 40% of the final grade. |
