Study Objective:

This course aims to provide basic knowledge of relational databases and knowledge of storing data of building information models according to the IFC standard, including storing data in the STEP format and the specification of the data structure in the EXPRESS modelling language. For these purposes, the principles of object-oriented problem solving on which the EXPRESS modelling language is based are also introduced.
