Course Brief

The success of any project relies on the development of a good design and the
technical information to allow the project to be built. The aim of this unit is to help
students to appreciate and be aware of the design process and the information
required to communicate the design itself, specify and quantify materials, provide
instructions for the assembly and erection, and facilitate precise costing and project
management.


Topics included in this unit are: project phases; construction drawing; detailing;
Computer Aided Design (CAD); Building Information Modelling (BIM); schedules;
specifications; bills of quantities; information collaboration.
On successful completion of the unit, students will be able to analyse scenarios, make
decisions and produce drawings and specifications to achieve appropriate, creative
and innovative home design proposals.
