EDAD410 Architectural Design IV 3 cr.

Architectural design projects of increasing complexity, to include multi-storied construction proposed in the public realm on an urban site. The course provides a framework for making clear design decisions related to the development of solving complex programming skills in a community setting. Projects use a range of building systems requiring long spans and taller structures in steel and concrete. The studio begins with a short project exercise in manipulating an existing exposed column and beam grid system in order to investigate the structural frame, closure and edge conditions.
