ARCH 1241  Design Communication

3 Credits

This course offers lecture and practicum providing fundamentals of design communication through principles of drawing conventions and related techniques including orthographic projections, paraline drawings, and perspective construction systems to represent design ideas and built forms. This involves use of manual media, 2D image manipulation and 3D modeling using digital media. The intention of the course is to develop visual literacy through visual thinking and to develop skills to represent objects and simple buildings in both two and three-dimensions.

ARCH 2111  Arch CultureI:Early Civil&Medi

3 Credits

The Architecture Culture sequence is designed as an historical survey of Architectural history and theory. Its aim is to develop an understanding of how architecture manifests the socio-cultural conditions of an era. It achieves this aim by first examining the relationship between architecture and other cultural discourses such as philosophy, aesthetics, science, religion, politics and technology; and second, by examining how architecture as a cultural artifact transforms through time as a response to alterations in the surrounding cultural context of the discourses listed above. History is here used as a didactic device to aid the design student in problem solving by presenting him or her with examples of how architects have successfully transformed the intellectual and practical concerns of their day into built form. The first course in the sequence, Architecture Culture I covers Prehistory through Gothic and includes introductions to non-Western architectural traditions. Architecture Culture I introduces the student to the prehistoric origins of architecture and moves through the development of architecture in the Ancient world, introduces Non-Western Architectural traditions and examines the development of Western Architecture from Early Christian through Gothic.

ARCH 3211  Arch Structures II Steel& Wood

3 Credits

This course builds on ARCH 2211 with a focus on design and analyses of statically determinate wood and steel structure systems, mainly frames. Upon completion students would be able to apply design techniques in defining a frame system and selecting or sizing wood or steel members, particularly beams and columns, trusses, diaphragms, and connections. Knowledge and skills are applied in a final team project that highlights a structural form employing wood and steel.
