BUILDING TECHNOLOGY 2

Module Synopsis

The aim of this subject is to provide the opportunity for students to apply the principles, practices and skills of construction technology into the process of documenting their design projects. Students are exposed to a variety of drawings such as submission drawings as required by authorities, relevant by-laws; as well as technical drawings, to develop their design project technically in the course of the proper execution of a project. Therefore, while students are not expected to have a complete knowledge of all the processes and drawing requirements by the end of this course, they must at least be familiar with the fundamental concepts of the different types and stages of working drawings in the construction industry, as well as the standard conventions and formats which apply for drawings, schedules, specifications, technical diagramming and other relevant forms of documentation.

Module Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of the module, students will be able to:
1. Identify and apply visual communication methods (technical drawing and terminology) clearly and
effectively to convey their design ideas and proposals from final architectural design project.
2. Apply the practices and procedures of working drawings development.
3. Develop an understanding of the general nature, principles and procedure of law and legislation,
particularly Building By-laws; and its relationship to working drawings through producing a complete set
of building submissions of architectural studio 5.
4. Develop and design architectural details for their design project.
5. Produce schedule of finishes, built up area, door and windows.
6. Develop an on-going architectural design project technically and make it buildable.
