Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

Course subject(s) 0. Getting started with Façade design and engineering: complexity made simple

This course is a companion to the book Façades. Principles of Construction by Ulrich Knaack, Tillmann Klein, Marcel Bilow and Thomas Auer. We got permission from the publishers to include in this MOOC some of the chapters, which remain copyright of Birkhäuser.

You can follow the course perfectly well without the book, but if you want to buy it , click on the link below (we promised the publishers we would share it!).
