CADD 2100 - Advanced Building Information Modeling



Credit hours: 3

Course Description:
This course will continue exploring the modeling concepts discussed in the Fundamentals of Building Information Modeling course (CADD 1650). Topics will include a more in depth exploration into the construction and manipulation of massing studies, Modeling techniques, Visibility Graphics settings, the use of topography in Architectural drawing, and Advanced Detailing techniques of REVIT Architecture. Both individual and team assignments will include designing models for energy and water efficiency, passive solar, day lighting, and other sustainable building mechanical and structural systems integration. Design teams will develop a sustainable building project. 

Student Learning Outcomes:
Students will be able to:

  • Use BIM design options tools to create shape volumes that respond to design assignments and create multiple design option variations using design options tool.
  • Effectively render a BIM model.
  • Create design options to consider and evaluate alternative design strategies.
  • Introduce techniques for creating and adapting components to model fixtures, fittings, and furniture.
