Prerequisites: ARC* K137/137L. Co-requisite: ARC* K211L. This course introduces the student to the fundamental methodologies of a designer's decision making process. Students will work individually and in groups as they apply their studies to the solutions of small "vignette" architectural projects that explore the principles of form, space, and order in design.
-
2.00 Credits
Prerequisites: ARC* K137/137L. Co-requisite: ARC* K211. This course implements the principles of architectural design covered in the lecture portion of this course. Emphasis in the Design I Lab is placed more upon the path of design and the decision making process than a "polished" design solution, through sketches, diagrams, and models.
-
1.00 Credits
Prerequisites: ARC* K211/211L. Co-requisites: ARC* K213L. This course, along with Architectural Design I, forms the capstone of the Architectural program, as students continue implementing the principles of Design I. Students expand their design experience as they implement form, space, and order concepts in the design of building layouts, planning schemes, fa ade designs, and construction techniques.
-
2.00 Credits
Prerequisites: ARC* K211/211L. Co-requisites: ARC* K213. This course implements the principles of architectural design covered in the lecture portion of this course. Students transition from designing small "vignette" projects in Design I to larger - holistic design problems, including urban in-fill, single buildings, and planning projects.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces students to construction industry documents, including working drawings and the project manual which contains bidding documents, contract documents, contract conditions, and the specifications. Additional documents include cut sheets, shop drawings, and various AIA (American Institute of Architects) documents used in contract administration. Working knowledge is attained through actual execution of the documents.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces students to the origins, scope, and administration of local, state, and federal codes and ordinances. Students will be exposed to the elements of these codes and ordinances and to the impacts they have on the design, construction and occupancy of a project. Students will develop a working knowledge of the subject material as they track a hypothetical project from preliminary zoning research, through design and construction and ultimately the issuance of a "certificate of occupancy."
-
2.00 Credits
Prerequisites: ARC* K135/135L. Co-requisite: ARC* K241L. This course introduces students to an overview inventory of the systems and elements that are encountered in the analysis of site conditions. Students will explore how each element operates and what procedures are required to maintain or improve the quality of the site environment. Students will develop a value system, which fosters the concept of fitness to human purpose and specific site context through an ecological approach to design.
-
1.50 Credits
Prerequisites: ARC* K135/135L. Co-requisite: ARC* K241. This course implements the principles of site analysis covered in the lecture portion of this course, as students explore the relationship between land use and architectural design. Hands-on experience is gained through a final project that explores site selection, orientation, climatology, natural and cultural features, topography, and regulatory issues.
-
3.00 Credits
This course introduces the student to the methodologies and philosophies of architectural office practice. Subjects covered include firm organization and management, client relations, marketing and attaining projects, and project production and management. Emphasis is placed on the everyday tasks of managing a firm and its projects. Working knowledge is attained through actual job files setup and execution of common AIA and other project management documents.
-
3.00 Credits
A topics-based course that explores current and evolving subjects that affect the architectural and construction industries. Areas of focus will include changes in technologies; building materials; regulations, codes and ordinances; delivery methods; graphic mediums; and other evolving subjects.
