    Description
    This is an architecture drawing class that will focus on construction documents for steel construction. The course will cover how these architectural drawings are documents that instruct all the stake holders how to use, build and maintain a high performance building. The course will explain how construction documents made out of concrete and masonry are connected to the life cycle of a building. It covers an integrated building approach as it identifies the deliverables for: programing (identify the need), design drawings (identify the solutions), construction documents (drawings used to build the building), operation/maintain (as built drawings) and assessment (analysis for upgrade and improvement). The student will prepare a complete set of construction documents for a simple steel building structure. Appropriate reference material that focus on concrete and masonry will be covered in class like fastening, flashing, crack control and others.
