COURSE DESCRIPTION

This is a lecture-discussion and lab class, designed to be a continuation of the INDES 160 course in basic Graphic Communication. Its purpose is to introduce professional application for drafting and drawing skills, while assisting in the continuing development of those skills. The course will begin with a description of the design process and the use of drawing as a design tool. The bulk of the quarter will be spent learning about Construction Documents which will consist of developing a set of working drawings for construction of a selected project.

COURSE GOALS

Upon completion of this course, the student should understand the basic sequence of events known as “design process,” and the role that good graphic communication plays in the process. The student should be able to understand, organize and complete a set of construction documents for a small structure, and to write a single, simple specification for that project. Lettering and freehand drawing skills should continue to improve.

GRADING

Projects will be evaluated numerically, rather than with individual letter grades. The evaluations will be based on quality and completeness of work, comprehension of concepts, line quality, improvement, and other criteria as they apply to specific projects. Numerical scores for the quarter will be tallied and converted to a letter grade, according to the following approximate breakdown:

GRADING

Lettering – 8 (at 5 points each)	40 points
Demo Plan, Dimension Plans	40
Electrical, Telephone Location Plans	20
Reflected Ceiling Plans	20
Finish Plans	20
Elevations	30
Details	30
Title Page	10
Revised Set – Final Project	30
Total Possible Points	240 Points

A	=	94	-	100	%
A-	=	90	-	93	%
B+	=	87	-	89	%
B	=	83	-	86	%
B-	=	80	-	80	%

ETC.

All assignments are to be completed, turned in “on-time,” and pinned up for group critique. Due dates will be announced in class and/or published in the class schedule. NO LATE WORK WILL BE ACCEPTED. Questions about grades and progress in the course will be welcomed at any time during the quarter.
