CIVL 220 Architectural Design

In this course, students will produce a set of architectural construction drawings typical of those incorporated in a full set of working drawings. The emphasis is placed on non-residential construction methods with comparison to residential techniques as appropriate. Students will prepare these drawings using a 3D parametric CAD drawing program prevalent in the production of these documents in the workplace today. In addition, students will learn about industry standards for the preparation of these documents and the building code requirements that apply to the project and impact design considerations.
