052-0653-24LFuture Cities Laboratory Indicia 03: Actions and Evidence for Future Settlements2 credits2KS. Menz, J. Da Cruz Paulos, E. Suel
AbstractThe course is organised based on research conducted at the Future Cities Laboratory (FCL) and its recent publication, Indicia 03. It introduces the background and motivations behind FCL’s focus on cities, highlighting the challenges urban areas face and approaches FCL employs to address them. The course aims to facilitate interdisciplinary knowledge exchange and critical thinking across domains.
Learning objectiveWe expect students to achieve the following objectives at the end of the course:
* Be familiar with key concepts in urbanisation, city systems, and their academic study.
* Learn about the main research results of FCL regarding sustainable urban development in an interdisciplinary format.
* Critically analyse diverse urban issues and debates, formulate and evaluate research questions related to urban phenomena.
ContentFCL Global helps shape sustainable cities and settlement systems through science, by design, in place, and over time. Cities are highly complex systems with interconnections between their social, economic, natural, and built environments. Many different academic fields address urban questions, spanning a wide range of disciplines and urban sectors, including urban planning, architecture, civil engineering, economics, public policy, sociology, geography, public health, and environmental sciences. Tackling the grand challenges that cities face today requires multidisciplinary teams that can work together, considering the complexity of urban systems and both local and global contexts. FCL’s research covers multiple disciplines and scales, from the individual citizens to larger communities and from small villages to megacities and offers important insights into the development of future settlements worldwide. The course will draw from Indicia 03, published in 2022, as well as ongoing research projects and recent findings.

The course will be delivered through a blend of lectures and moderated discussions.

Lecture weeks will provide background and context on diverse urban topics including:

* Urban systems theory, modelling, and simulation
* Cities, urbanisation, and current challenges
* Society and space
* Cities and complexity
* Socio-spatial differentiation and urban disparities

Dialogue weeks will consist of 4-6 weeks of moderated discussions with invited guest speakers from FCL, presenting their work and engaging in dialogues on topics such as:

* Design Liveable Density
* Powering the City
* Resource Efficient Urban Intensification
* Sustainable and Innovative Materials in Urban Construction
* Reducing the Impact of Cities on Non-Urban Land
* Adaptive Mobility, Land-Use, and Infrastructure
* User-Centred Design in Cities
* Blue-Green Infrastructures
Prerequisites / NoticeThis elective course is organised with a focus on FCL Global research contents. We provide digital copies of the Indicia 03 for the students attending the course. The format of the course is physical (at ETH Hönggerberg) and virtual. It will be open to all researchers and students in FCL Global, D-Arch and D-Baug.

AbstractKey terms: Digital transformation is more than digitisation of existing processes and information
Learning objectiveIndependently of the building industry, Module 1 initially provides information about the characteristics of digitalisation through its principles and rules, enabling the participants to independently recognise the short-term and long-term changes that are resulting from it.
ContentThe first module addresses the topic of digitalisation and digital transformation in a holistic sense. It is much more than converting documents into PDFs or using software. It is about transforming processes, resources and information into a consistent and efficient digital system to make life easier for employees and customers. This journey always involves change. From the perspective of other industries, we first build up a basic understanding and discuss the opportunities and risks.

How do the experiences of other industries help us? What can be derived from them? Why is BIM only a small part and why is the future of BIM not BIM?

Learning objectiveIn Module 2, we break from the theoretical idea of a purely technology-based, better collaboration and look at the situation realistically in order to be able to understand and develop new solutions and requirements.
ContentThe usual approach towards digital transformation is to train people to use new technologies. In contrary, we ask for the specific challenges and problems people have with change. We learn to understand viewpoints of different partners within building projects and new solutions to specific problems.

Learning objectiveModule 3 we leave behind the negative images from the early days of automation. A gloomy and misanthropic image of automation - both a bliss and a curse. We get to know the positive sides and learn to apply them. How do we become a sustainable "Formula 1"?
ContentWhat does it take to be able to work together in a digitally networked environment? How many "techie genes" are needed to work efficiently and effectively with structured data? The third module gives an insight into the principles of data architectures, data formats, attributes and platform technology. Machine readability as an important requirement but also as a clear challenge e.g. to security requirements.

The module offers the opportunity to prepare for the voluntary buildingSMART Professional Certification.

AbstractKey terms: Added value of digital transformation, distributed data management, digital twin, logistics and robotics.
Learning objectiveUsing specific examples, Module 4 illustrates the foundations and versatility of building information modeling (BIM), enabling participants to deal with the concepts, applications and mechanisms involved.
Content"Highway to hell or highway to haven" - the question of a clear and simple roadmap is always at the heart of a digital transformation. "Value creation" is a central goal. Digitalisation is often seen as a strategy from the productivity gap. The fourth module shows how strategic goals can be developed in a roadmap and implemented in practice and how the individual shareholders and stakeholders participate.

We learn to consciously look at the topic of added value and digital transformation from different perspectives. Collision checking and quantity take-offs (QTO) are very useful. But they are only basics when it comes to real value creation.

Learning objectiveModule 5 focuses on cultural change, innovation, disruption or evolution? In this last model, we learn to question and discover what the 17 Sustainable Goals mean for our industry.
ContentAs a final module, new business models are discussed and explored. Examples will be used to explore patterns and interfaces and to analyse what is needed today and in the future for a successful and sustainable development of the sector. How can innovative ideas move us forward? What can we learn from design thinking? Why is it important for people to have useful and understandable measurable values? How do the 17 Sustainable Goals influence our industry?

We will analyse the topic on the basis of two concrete examples, familiarise ourselves with them and observe their further development as a result.
