This course provides lecture, lab and studio components focused on the integrated relationship between architecture and interior space. The course conceives interior space as the study of light, color, texture and volume as it relates to human scale. The course objectives and outcomes are organized into four phases; gathering, finding, transforming and synthesis – and includes studies on building program, daylight and the haptic study of material. The course builds on the concepts of landscape and site from the ID1 course and prepares students to embrace concepts of tectonics to be considered in ID3. The studio component emphasizes integrated architectural composition; the lab emphasizes exploration and experimentation with design media and other specific design inquiries in support of the studio.

This course is the first in a sequence of two that address building construction systems. The course introduces principles of construction materials and assemblies based on their properties, performance, and environmental impact. Course content will engage criteria for defining appropriate building structure and enclosure systems in response to qualities of durability, aesthetics, thermal performance, and energy resources. The course will also introduce building systems and life safety systems guided by standards of practice and building code regulations. Students develop construction drawings, models, and outline specifications to demonstrate ability and understanding of the course content and objectives.

This course provides lecture, lab and studio components focusing on the integrated relationship between architecture and tectonics. The course presents tectonics as the order of constructional parts necessary to create architectural space. The course objectives and outcomes are organized into four phases: elements, assemblies, applications, and synthesis. Areas of focus include construction joints, sequencing, weathering, primary vs. secondary systems, and relationships of constituent parts to whole buildings. The course builds on the concepts of landscape and site from the ID1 course, and interior and daylight from the ID2 course, and prepares students to embrace concepts of urban systems to be considered in ID4. The studio component emphasizes integrated architectural composition; the lab emphasizes exploration and experimentation with design media and other specific design inquiries in support of the studio.

This course is an introduction to the behavior, analysis, and design of structural members and systems. It provides a basis for the understanding of elementary force flow in structural systems and an intuitive understanding of how systems react to and resist loads. This course introduces the theory of statics with analytical and graphical solutions. Topics include the determination of loads, the resolution of force systems, and equilibrium analysis; and structural principles related to shape (centroids and moment of inertia), the properties of materials (stress, stiffness, and modulus of elasticity), shear and bending moments, deflection, column theory, and elementary indeterminate structures. Instructional methods include lectures, advanced digital media, video, in-class problem solving, demonstration models, and the investigation of historical precedents. The course provides the knowledge of structural theory which is the basis for the code based procedures in subsequent courses.

This course presents advanced methods of analyzing buildings loads (dead, live, wind, earthquake, etc.) leading to the understanding of structural design strategies that provide building stability. Course work includes methods of analysis for responding to requirements for lateral stability due to wind or earthquakes; the development of one and two-way long span systems; the structural behavior of shell, frame, and space systems; and the analysis and design of structures with computer technology. The course provides the basis for students to understand behavior and force flow in long span and lateral force structural systems. The course further develops knowledge of code based material applications. Class instruction offers both quantitative and intuitive understandings of how systems react to and resist loads. Instructional methods include lectures, advanced digital media, video, in-class problem solving, demonstration models, and the investigation of historical precedents.

Students complete a comprehensive site and building design project through demonstration of investigative and design skills engaged with site conditions, historical traditions and global culture. Each project integrates environmental, structural and spatial ordering systems and addresses issues of sustainability, accessibility, and life safety in the design. The course focuses on skills in required technical documentation and producing a set of architectural drawings delineating the project. This course meets the NAAB accreditation standards for a comprehensive architectural design studio and is supported by professional consultants who provide expertise, through lectures, demonstrations, reviews and other activities, in the content areas required for the course. The studio component of the course emphasizes the fully-integrated architectural proposition. The consulting/lab component conducts technical research, computation, and documentation in support of the studio.
