This course explores both passive (natural) and active (mechanical) approaches to managing lighting; power; communications; domestic water supply and waste, storm water; fire detection, suppression; and annunciation; acoustics; and conveyances.
-
3.00 Credits
The course will introduce graphic applications such as Photoshop and Pagemaker as well as 3-D modeling software(Form Z and 3D Studio Max). Through a series of short exercises the student will become familiar with the strengths of each program. Further exercises will encourage file importation and manipulation of files between the various applications. Summer Only
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides an overview of issues and practices in the field of professional construction management. This course examines the process of product delivery in the building industry from pre-design concerns through completion from the perspectives of Owner, A/E and GC. Develops skills and techniques in the use of construction logic diagrams (CPM critical path method) to examine and track the allocation of human, financial and material resources in a construction process.
-
9.00 Credits
Each year two students are awarded scholarships by the Foudazione Architetto August Rancilion (F.A.A.R.), under whose auspices students conduct independent research. The scope of this program is to give students in the field of architecture, design and urban planning the opportunity to test their ideas in the academic and professional contexts of other countries through independent study. Departmental Authorization Required.
-
3.00 Credits
In this course, students will develop the ability to describe designed work in two dimensions (plan, section, and elevation), in three dimensions (perspective and axonometric), and in four dimensions (animations). They will do this using in four modes of representation including sketching, drafting, virtual, and physical (modeling). Students will also develop their ability to describe design ideas orally and in writing.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces students to the world of design and architecture, its concepts, theory, language, practice, and ethics, and to associated and related fields (such as interior, landscape, graphic, and industrial design, to planning, construction, and development). It also introduces them to the world of the architectural student and intern and to management of the demands it will make of them. Students will learn to raise their powers of observation and design awareness, and increase their sensitivity toward the quality of the designed environment.
-
3.00 Credits
In this course, students will learn basic theories of graphic, architectural, and urban design composition and form, and will be introduced to basic process of design and design thinking. They will then use these theories and processes to assess the design intent of existing architectural and urban design projects and to describe, diagram, and document design intent graphically (2D and 3D, manually and digitally), orally, and in writing. The intent of the course is to prepare students for later design studios, where they will need to be able to think about and describe the design intent of their own projects.
-
6.00 Credits
This studio continues to explore the Fundamental Language of Architecture. Students will be expected to use and build on the knowledge gained in ARCH 100,104,201, 216 and the history sequence and to build on it in Arch 202. They will be introduced to architectural problems that involve simple programs on real sites, both urban and in the landscape. A design process that includes analysis of the site and the synthesis of concept, parti, site, program, knowledge of building types, et al will be taught. Prerequisite 201
-
3.00 Credits
This course explores the history of world architecture and city planning from its beginnings to the end of the Romanesque period (Carolingian). Examples will be discussed with respect to aesthetic principles, symbolism and cultural meaning, site and urban design, spatial sequence, detailing, and construction and systems technology, and in the context of their behavioral, cultural, political, religious, ecological, and economic environments.
