Training objectives
- The objectives of the course is the acquisition by pupils of specific skills related to the design disciplines and representation of space geometry. This knowledge is necessary for the development of a comprehensive learning path and comprehensive in the field of product design and staging.
The first approach to the drawing discipline will focus on the teaching of traditional representation techniques to a digital techniques and knowledge of the necessary analogue instruments. In this phase will address the themes of showing events in the architectural space and the representation of the product according to the mechanical drafting legislation.
The works produced charts will provide the design basis for a subsequent modeling phase "physical" or prototyping, mockup and scale models made by students. The creation of a physical model, is the meeting point between the ephemeral component of the project and the tangible reality of the realized model, revealing the structural problems and fostering a greater understanding of the technological aspects and embodiments in addition to those stylistic. Prerequisites
- A good knowledge of the theoretical basis of traditional drawing, familiarity with analog instruments of drawing, basics of computer science and good manual skills.
Course programme
- Employees theoretical tools will be the classic ones of the technical drawing, linked to the descriptive geometry representation methods (orthogonal), the reproduction ratios of the subject and scale of representation of three-dimensional design methods of two-dimensional support (isometric and perspective). They will be held for specific lessons on the design and technical rules in the field of architecture.
The teaching through digital and computer drawing techniques will focus on the presentation of technical papers of medium difficulty, produced by the use of specific software raster and vector, processed by selected software packages among the most popular in the market.
Lessons related to physical modeling will focus on knowledge, understanding and interpretation of a two-dimensional files for the design of models and prototypes. Other lectures will deal with the creation of two-dimensional files suitable for the production of physical models.
In addition to the previous techniques we'll provide the sculptural modeling methods such as direct approach Clay modeling, plasticine, termoattuate resins, polyurethane foams and slicing of subject to the 3D model. Didactic methods
- Part of the lectures will be held in front manner and a part will consist of exercises of design and modeling practices.
More than half of the hours will be used for the design and modeling lessons and exercises held in the classroom. In plastic lab students will begin to use the tools for craft modeling, and to set up elaborate complex, mastering the work phases and the instruments involved.
The laboratory are equipped with all the necessary equipment for the course, but do not provide consumables and small items. Learning assessment procedures
- Students will be involved during the semester in short regular exercises based on the topics from time to time during the lessons. These exercises will be carried out by students and reviewed by teachers during the course, once completed and integrated will make up the final work that will define the final grade.
The exercises provided will focus on the themes of the course and will be composed of manual drafting tests, technical and automatic drawing and physical models.
During the appeal session you will be viewed the material produced, and students will be asked to verbally supplement any gaps in the product material. Reference texts
