While architecture is grounded in science, its heart is in the arts. Well-designed buildings not only serve the people who use them. They are also works of art that help define the town or city in which they stand.
As an architecture major, you'll learn how to work with others to imagine buildings, from straw-bale houses to the tallest skyscrapers. And with the technical know-how you pick up in such classes as architectural engineering and construction materials, you'll know just what needs to be done to bring them to life.
Students in this major learn how to create working drawings and computer simulations used in the design and construction of buildings and other structures. In addition to studying design and construction basics, they practice using computer-aided drafting tools.
Architectural engineering programs combine architecture and engineering. Majors learn about the links between design and construction. Course work covers such topics as building materials and construction methods.
For example: The Taipei Tower in Taiwan is 101 stories and 1,667 feet tall. It’s built in an area that gets hit by typhoons and earthquakes. How do you build something so tall? How do you make it safe? On the 88th floor, in the center of the tower, there’s a steel mass that weighs well over a million pounds. When strong winds blow or the earth moves dangerously, the heavy sphere absorbs the energy from the building and helps to stabilize it.
As an architectural engineering major, you’ll confront challenges like those posed by the Taipei Tower project.
AutoCAD Design, Auto CAD Drafting, Auto Cad Conversion & Auto Cad Digitization,
>> (Elevation): We can convert any original CAD document to a perfectly accurate and multi-layer CAD design.
>> (Electrical): Companies and clients are becoming more reliant on precise digital formatting of their blueprints or CAD drawings.
The new trends in home architecture are designed for the sophisticated customers, those who understand that being unique will make a difference. Accordingly, home architecture specialists expect owners to cut down on patterns and improvise in order to make their homes appealing and comfortable. Whether we’re talking of the wire cables sustained floating bed or the sleek stainless steel kitchen appliances, home architecture is bound to come with that polished touch we’ve all been dreaming about. Home architecture has to be ecologically sensitive, this way up-to-date with the community problem-solving issues, so try using natural materials for furniture and appliances.
