EDAD219 AutoCAD Space Planning 3 cr.


Current professional and architectural design and drafting software is introduced in the context of space planning for domestic, educational, commercial and industrial uses. The process of planning space is covered from interviewing the client, measuring and documenting existing space and equipment, understanding the needs of the users, applying building codes, ergonomic requirements, and accessibility laws, producing several logical preliminary schemes, to finally developing a partial set of working drawings for the scheme selected, using the 2D features of AutoCAD. Typical projects include interior space use, reflected ceiling, dimensions and details, material and color plans.
