3.00 Credits
3 Credits (3 Lecture 0 Lab 0 Shop) 3 hrs/wk (3 Hrs. Lecture) *15 wks Introduces students to the pre-design research and the design phases towards construction document creation. Students will analyze preliminary design considerations impacting the site and buildings design. Students will research, evaluate, and present their findings on the building and site's use, program considerations, code study, building systems research & evaluation, zoning, site vehicular/pedestrian access, building orientation, topography, landscaping, storm water management. Students will explore architectural history through a brief overview with emphases on the precedents in design. Students will expand their use of CAD software tools to translate preliminary hand drawn sketches of building and site into CAD presentation drawings. Students will also be introduced to the office environment, with emphasis on accurate record keeping, teamwork, professional ethics, problem solving skills, written & oral communication skills and presentation of final works of study. Prerequisite or Corequisite ACE 113
