This course is designed to provide students and industrial draftsmen with the concepts of intersection and development problems found in modern application. It deals with the analysis and solutions of three-dimensional problems through application of the principles of orthographic or multiview projection. Also deals with the analysis of space relationships that precedes design. Students learn to simplify solution of structural problems and to apply graphical methods in structural geology. This course includes the basic theory of electricity, electrical circuits, diagrams, and controls and their standard drawing symbols.
Drawings are water colored as envisioned by designer.
Selection of washes, and superimposed washes, and color mixture by superimpositions or admixtures are studied. Students are required to do actual indoor and outdoor water coloring to achieve right balance of color tones, with emphasis on raw foliage greens. A study of the mechanical, thermal, electrical, and chemical properties of metals, alloys, plastics, and other nonmetallic materials used in construction. Friction is also treated as an application of the equilibrium concept. In addition, methods of determining centers of gravity, centroids, and moments of inertia are discussed.
