Course description
In this course, the students will utilize Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Building Information Modelling (BIM) in developing a multidisciplinary design project and construction drawings. The students will be introduced to building industry’s standard project design phasing, and the requirements for design and construction drawings in each phase. The phases are: Schematic Design, Design Development and Construction Documents. The course assignments and projects will simulate the continuous design process of an industry typical project, each completed assignment and project will represent a step towards completing the final project for this course. The course will allow students to develop CAD and BIM skills including the applied practices of building systems analysis layouts, elevations, grading, details, and sections.
