3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Arch 100, Arch 110, Arch 160 This is beginning course in the use of Building Information Modeling in architecture. Through the use of computer graphics systems and industry standard software (AutoCAD and Revit Architecture) students will learn to develop and refi ne a complete set of construction documents. This course will also examine various construction materials and methods and their relationship to specifi c design intentions. The course will begin with the initial functional/conceptual diagram and examine its refi nement through building codes, structural principles, material properties, and systems integration. Learning is project focused with the various software commands and features being taught as needed to complete the assigned projects. Students will work both individually and in groups. (Fall, Winter)

3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Arch 100, Arch 160 Rendering and perspective is a course dealing with basic perspective fundamentals required for freehand perspective drawing. It also includes the technical principles of perspective required to layout precise perspective constructions. The course will help build basic light, color, and rendering vocabulary required for quality drawing presentations. (Fall, Winter)

3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Arch 100, Arch 160, Const 120, Sophomore status This course will provide in-depth information about the preparation and content of documents within a project manual. It will defi ne and explain different types of contracts and specifi cations. How to write specifi cations will be taught and practiced during the course of the class. It will include, but not limited to, subjects like coordinating drawings and specifi cations, bidding requirements, construction contracts, methods of specifying, substitutions, and warranties. This information is required to take and pass the Construction Document Technology (CDT) certifi cation test. (Fall, Winter, Spring)

3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Arch 110, Const 120, Arch 210, and Const 330 (can be taken concurrently). Building Information Modeling (BIM) means to create a virtual model of a building that can be used for quantity take offs, design decisions, interference checking, construction document generation, rendering and presentation, etc. You will use standard building components (families), modify standard components and create your own components. Each building component is represented by smart objects that "know how" to relate toone another and can contain extensive information about their own characteristics. You will create schedules (detailed lists) of components that can be used for quantity take offs and estimating. You will create rendered views of your model. Basic knowledge of 2D and 3D CAD, Excel spreadsheets, and construction methods is assumed. Learning is project focused with the various commands and features being learned as needed to complete the assignments. You will develop useful strategies for life-long learning that will enable you to approach new CAD versions or programs with confi dence. (Fall, Winter)
