3.00 Credits
This course is designed to expand on the knowledge gained in CIVL 120, with the study of how such materials and others are combined to form the building shell. The course focuses on the separation between exterior and interior environments. Topics covered include roofing, glass, windows and doors, walls, foundations, and interior finishes, vertical transportation and acoustics.
-
3.00 Credits
This course presents the fundamentals of post-editing computer renderings. Emphasis is placed upon adding people and trees, correcting the lighting levels and applying different filter effects.
-
5.00 Credits
This course both introduces the student to the practice of working drawings and integrates knowledge based on all prior architectural courses. Part of the course focuses on individual tasks, such as the generation of details, schedules, and plans, while another part of the course will focus on work generated in a group setting, simulating a team effort common to a modern architectural office.
-
3.00 Credits
Students learn about planning projects, defining project scope and translating physical needs into building area, developing alternative solutions, preparing schedules and estimates, coordinating work efforts, and other practical factors. The student must consider physical constraints, code implications, costs, bidding, construction sequencing and practices, design goals, and working with consultants.
-
3.00 Credits
Revit Architecture focuses on the first fully parametric architectural design software, which allows buildings to be designed and drawn āvirtuallyā, instead of being developed with conventional 2D drawings. Users examine their designs from any direction in order to better visualize them. Once created, the Building Information Model (BIM) can be tested, analyzed, and quantified. Basic concepts of REVIT Architecture will be explored in this course to design, change, and document a building using this revolutionary new parametric building modeler software.
-
2.00 Credits
To introduce the student to SketchUp V.5, a software package developed for the conceptual stages of design. SketchUp V.5 is a deceptively simple, amazingly powerful tool for creating, viewing, and modifying 3D ideas quickly and easily. SketchUp was developed to combine the elegance and spontaneity of pencil sketching and the flexibility of todayās digital media.
-
3.00 Credits
ARCH 282 will introduce the student to the issues and concepts related to sustainable design. The impact of the buildingās site, energy efficiency, the use of renewable forms of energy, including solar energy, will be studied as it relates to building design. Projects will be assigned on a regular basis and will be adaptable to the varied backgrounds of students.
-
3.00 Credits
Students become familiar with the concept of thermal transfer, the energy characteristics of various building energy systems and components, and learn how to compare the projected performance characteristics of one building model against another. The object is to learn an approach that enables well-informed decisions to be made that will affect sustainability.
-
3.00 Credits
Off-campus work experience in architecture, consulting engineering, or construction-related paid employment that augments formal education received in the technology, with actual work conditions and job experience. āNā credit will not be allowed for this course.
-
1.00 - 5.00 Credits
ARCH 299 provides an opportunity for detailed examination of selected topics in Architecture.
