Aims
The aim of this module is to methodically inform students in topics of environmental design and Computer Aided Design. The module builds on the broad introduction given at Level 4, by focussing on the technical realisation of buildings through modelling, analysis, and design.
Learning Outcomes
1.
Model and graphically illustrate a building design project using the specified CAD software.
2.
Appraise the environmental performance of a building design project using the specified CAD software.
3.
Contextualise their project with reference to relevant precepts of sustainability
4.
Communicate succinctly through writing, drawings and diagrams an evaluation of their technological inquiries.
Module Content
Outline Syllabus:
Lectures series are presented on the technology of environmental design. The lectures are intended to aid the technical realisation of work being produced in the design studio CAD Workshops give students the key skills necessary to represent their architectural ambitions. The syllabus covers techniques in presentation, architectural drafting, 3d modelling using both CAD and graphics methods, as well as the interface with CAD/CAM and rapid prototyping technology. A range of software is used in the key categories of CAD, BIM, environmental analysis and graphics.

Additional Information:
This module supports the concurrent design modules (5123 ASA and 5124ASA) though lectures and workshops, challenging students in the technical aspects of their design development. The main assessment for the module follows a series of workshops on Building Information Modelling (BIM) and environmental analysis.
