  • AET 358: Architectural Computer Modeling and Rendering

    4.00 Credits
    University of Hartford

    This course will take the student from initial architectural computer 3-D modeling theory and techniques through "walkthroughs,""fly-bys," and animation. The focuswill be on creating presentations that represent project goals. The goals include space representation, materials selection and representation, lighting, visualization and presentation image hierarchy. These goals will be accomplished with a series of short exercises and culminate in a final project. The final project will bring all the course material together in a single presentation. Students will have the option of recording their final project on videotape for portfolio enrichment. The overriding focus will be on using computers in presenting architectural projects in the real world. Two lecture hours, f our lab hours. Prerequisites: AET 233 and AET 242, or permission of instructor or chair. Laboratory fee.

  • AET 359: Advanced Construction Documents

    4.00 Credits
    University of Hartford

    This course explores the relationship between an architect's design intention and the types of drawings and other documents an architect must produce to realize that intention through the construction of the building. Students develop a full set of construction documents for a small project. While the documents include site plan, floor plans, elevations, and building sections, other drawing types, including extensive details, are explored and developed. Prerequisite: AET 242 or equivalent.

  • AET 362: Advanced Computer Applications in Architecture

    4.00 Credits
    University of Hartford

    Using software currently used in professional offices, students will understand the application of the software and how the software can be interlaced; students will develop their own applications. Laboratory exercises will parallel lecture material. A culminating project will be expected, showing a major application interlacing the various software. Software includes CAD, spreadsheets, database, scheduling, graphics, and Web. Two lecture hours, six lab hours. Prerequisites: AET 242 and MTH 241.

  • AET 364: Strength of Materials and the Design of Wood Structures for Engineering Technology

    4.00 Credits
    University of Hartford

    This course is a continuation of AET 355 with the additional application of the design of wood structures. Discussed are stressand- strain distributions over the critical crosssection of structural members subjected to axial forces, bending moments, and/or torsion. The stress-strain relationship for an axially loaded member is investigated experimentally and analytically. Interrelation between normal stress and shear stress is also analytically and graphically studied. Analysis of statically indeterminate structures using deformation compatibility is introduced. Shear and moment diagrams are reviewed in depth as a continuation from AET 355. Beam-deflection calculation methods are discussed, with emphasis on using the momentarea method. Use of computers through spreadsheet programming is required. Three lecture hours, three lab hours. Prerequisites: AET 355, MTH 112, MTH 122, MTH 232, and PHY 120; or permission of instructor or chair. Laboratory fee.

  • AET 367: Architectural Design V

    4.00 Credits
    University of Hartford

    A capstone architectural design studio course with a focus on schematic design, design development, and construction documents, including selected wall sections of a nonresidential building. Emphasis is on developing the student's ability to select, apply, and evaluate materials and construction techniques for a design project, based on the integration of the elements of architectural design, structure, and environmental systems, design factors, cost, specifications, and code applicability. Principles and practices of "green" design are addressed through LEED.Two lecture hours, six lab hours. Prerequisites: AET 232, AET 241, AET 242, AET 352, and AET 355; corequisite: AET 364; or permission of instructor or chair. Laboratory fee.
