Project 3
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
For this project, your professor will describe the various options for the different
design fields. You will create a complete set of drawings to represent that option. The
detail of both the interior and exterior is essential to the understanding of the design
intent. Your choices of materials, views and methods of "making" become an
important part of communicating the essence of the design. The objective is to have a
well-rounded presentation that illuminates the design intent of the work.
Requirements:
AutoCAD files (.dwg) and laser prints exhibiting lineweights
of the following:
Plan (2D drawing)
Elevation (2D drawing
Section (2D drawing)
AutoCAD file of the following:
3D model (.dwg)
AccuRender files (.jpg) complete with an environment of the following:
1 exterior perspective (.jpg)
3 interior perspectives (.jpg)
Sunlight studies of key space (.jpg)
1 Panorama (.pan)
Be prepared to present your work on the computer to the class.
Submit your .dwg files and .jpg files on a super disk to your professor
(Note: The 2D drawings are separate files from the 3D model.)
(As per the syllabus, work submitted late may or may not be accepted at the discretion of
the professor. Late submittal of a project will adversely affect the grade of the
project.)
Evaluation Criteria:
Project 3 is evaluated based upon the following criteria.
Effectiveness of 3D AutoCAD model.
Effectiveness of AccuRender images.
Understanding of 2D drawings.
Completeness of documentation.
