Architecture E-portfolio
module teaching objective
computer application
This course will be introducing students to the world of Computer Generated 3-Dimensional drawings. The course will be taught with minimal handouts but there will be lectures and tutorial sessions for the students in order to experiment with the software. Students are advised to practice daily, as only through practice will they be able to understand and master the software. They are also encouraged to carry out self-research in regards to the other capabilities and more complicated features of 3DS Max and Revit Architecture. Students will also be taught the potential of “cross breeding” different softwares, in order to garner the necessary desired results for their visualisation work.

Project 1A : Revit Modeling
​
1. Based on the selected architectural design, you are to generate a Revit model. The model must be compliant with LOD200 requirements (refer Appendix 1).
2. Your Revit model must include at least TWO Revit Family components.
Project 1B : Architecture Drawings Documentation
​
1. Using the Revit model from Project 1, you are required to prepare building documentation drawings in A1 size containing the following components:
ï‚· Plans
ï‚· Elevations
ï‚· 2 Sections
ï‚· 2 Callouts on sections
ï‚· 1 Exploded isometric
​ 1 Room Schedule showing area tabulation
