sense of beauty
technical drawings ✔️✔️communicate technical information, capturing details necessary for
production or modification
what should be the first step of any design? ✔️✔️sketching
sketching techniques ✔️✔️- use light construction lines
- box in rough outline of the object
-darken only the lines you wish to keep
- clean up edges and rough spots.
sketching lines ✔️✔️- keep your eye on the endpoint
- if necessary, break long lines into shorter segments by marking the midpoint
- make quick light strokes initially
- darken only the lines you want
sketching circles/ellipses ✔️✔️- break large arcs/circle into smaller segments
- sketch a light square or rectangle around circle
, - lightly sketch in diagonals
- mark contact points with square and circle
- rotate the paper for each segment
what is BIM? ✔️✔️Building Information Modeling is a digital representation of physical and functional
characteristics of a facility.
A BIM is a shared knowledge resource for information about a facility forming a reliable basis for
decisions during its life-cycle; defined as existing from earliest conception to demolition.
