Jace Ehmke, is completing a quiz in his Architectural Design I course. During this semester, Jace will review various concepts used in the design and architecture field. He will learn about basic drafting equipment and how to use and maintain it. He will also analyze challenges and solutions within the development of design.
In addition, Jace will learn how to prepare drawings manually and using AutoCAD software. A substantial portion of his course will be spent on sequential processes so he develops an understanding of creating and annotating drawings as well as how to apply standard rules regarding line types, offset object, creating layers, and setting up a page for plotting. Jace will also explore three-dimensional drawing and use coordinating and navigation systems to create them.
