Remarks regarding the seminars: - The seminar works for this subject matter will be executed exclusively with the help of the traditional technical representation instruments: T squares, square set, technical drawing pencil, calipers, moulds, drawing paper. This is necessary so that the students acquire during a semester the necessary knowledge, during the seminars in the seminar workshops. Depending on the decision to be taken within the technical science department by common agreement, the teaching of seminars may be changed with the help of the computer. As the examination takes place after the requirement regarding the detail execution using the technical drawing as representation modality, the requirement regarding the realization of seminars using computer is not possible.( the students are verified during the seminars on drawings executed by them during seminars, marks are given and corrections offered in order to acquire and understand the modality to approach the details of a construction) Bibliography The same materials presented as course support, adding: -projects carried-out during the latest years on the construction sites in the country/ abroad: as drawings – copies presented with the help of the designer, adding video films with construction site activity; - during the seminars people will be invited within some companies recognized as manufacturers of construction materials used within the construction sites in the country, that will submit problems, material samples and technologies to carry-out the finishing of a construction [plasterboard walls, brick, closing systems (exterior finishing), carpentry and other materials of companies recognized from the professional point of view] 9. Corroboration of the subject matter contents with the expectations of the representatives of the epistemic community, professional associations and representative employers within the field corresponding to the program

• In order to teach the course, the teacher participates in specialty discussions, seminars on specialty theme, discussions and conferences organized by the main

architecture companies that use materials for system structures regarding new finishing technologies and their composition. The participation is continuous, at least during the latest 20 years.

• Consultation of the specialty documentation within the international professional environment, through participation in international specialty fairs, together with the realization of some specialty works within the European space contributes to the substantiation of the discussions within the course – compared to the examples of the projects and construction sites in the country. The past participation in the execution of some important projects and with national value, in fairs that gather specialists in the field, help for practical exemplifications regarding the exterior finishing situations for special constructions. This is carried-out continuously.
