METHODS OF DOCUMENTATION AND MEASURED DRAWINGS
TO BE UPLOAD
PROJECT 1 | Sketchbook and Journal
The objective of this project is to train students to be observant to their surrounding and instil the culture of documenting as part of the learning process in architectural education.
Besides that, it also enhance the students’ graphic communication skills in capturing important details and the spirit of the place.
The sketches are to comprise at least 2 each of these categories :
1. The Genius Loci
2. Poetic Quality
3. Cultural Attributes
4. Technical /Construction details
5. Plans /Elevations
Submission Requirement :
A minimum of 10 pages of sketches on A4 art block or good quality papers spiral bound with a transparent cover at the front and black mounting board at the back.
Reflection
The understanding of the building including details and its spirit are important before anything start. The requirement of producing 10 sketches have provided a chance to enhance our observation and capturing skills. Honestly, I was not managed to finish all the sketches on site, I took picture and sketched them after I get home. It did interesting that I could actually decide the ways I wanted to show my understanding of the building through those sketches.
PROJECT 2 | MEASURED DRAWING
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
1. Recomend the appropriate method of architectural historic documentation.
2. Recognize and recall techniques of measured drawing and documentation.
3. Explain the as-built building constructions, architectural details and elements.
4. Interpret historic architectural elements, structure and building.
5. Execute fieldwork and hands-on measurement exercise.
6. Translate measured data into scaled drawings.
7. Produce a report on the building, highlighting its importance and historical significance.
Reflection
The requirement of this project created a chance for me to learn and use Autocad for the first time. Teamwork do important for this project, thanks that we have two intelligent leaders that managed to seperate all the tasks for each group member to complete. Due to that, our project can be done effectively. Besides Autocad, I was ordered to join the modeling team. I learned alot of crafting skills from other member while making the model. Patient and determination are key of model making.
PROJECT 3 | REPORT & VIDEO
This report accompanies the set of drawings for the building that is measured during the semester and elaborate on the significance of the building being measured from various aspects such as architectural, historical and cultural. Students are required to relate the architecture of the building to its significance, highlighting how the two support the inhabitation of the building. A video documenting the building is required to provide 3D experience of the building.
LEARNING OUTCOMES:
1. Explain the application of architectural historic documents
2.Describe architectural cultural heritage
3.Elaborate the relationship between
architecture and the significance of the building as well as its inhabitation
Reflection
Firstly, I am not in the report team but I used to work as a photographer to take pictures for the report. Teamwork is the primary key that lead us to success, every member works together to ensure the efficient and quality of works. Besides that, the video team really done a excellent job, the video is amazing and interesting. Lastly, I feel thankful to all the group mates that pay responsibility on this project.
