The document outlines the format and rules for an architectural design exam. It provides details on the required materials for the exam, including using 20"x30" tracing paper, black ink for final drawings, and pencils for construction lines. It also lists the exam components, such as an introduction, architectural design theory, and approaches and strategies. Additionally, it discusses the goals of the architectural design solutions, which must be safe, simple, appropriate, functional, and economical while following the examiner's parameters.

Instructor: Architect Abelardo Firmeza 1. 20”x30” tracing paper – provided by PRC
2. Black ink – final drawings is in black ink COURSE OUTLINE 3. Pencil – for enhancing and construction line (staedler 1. Introduction pencils) 2. Architectural Design Theory 4. College major plate type drawings 3. Esquisse - schematic 4. Building Economics - no dimensions 5. Building Utilities - no “call-outs” such as specifications 6. Approaches and Strategies - “fully rendered” in the used pencil shadows but not 7. Simulated Board Exam colored - material must be drawn in full ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN - “no columns” unless it is part of design - it is the translation of an abstract solution to a - “furniture layouts” defending on layout and real, tangible and concrete solution instructions - it is the optimum and better solution which must - entourage and landscape are allowed but not approximate the pre-set solution of the examiner colored - it must involve the judicious use of design tools in developing the solution within: RULES a. parameters / constraints 1. Individual drawing implements and drawing boards b. circumstances - triangles c. environmental conditions - compass : must be conserve - pencils : must be protected - magic, masking, scotch tapes : must be included in the design solution - rubber band - drawing board with straight edge - set by the examiner. The solution must be: SAFE - erasing shield - scissors Simple – provide what is needed or simply follow - protractors instruction - french curve Appropriate – must fit on concept - 2 sets of sign pens varying in points Functional – look-out for specific use of the - circular template building - optional coloring materials Economical - cutters - ballpens - erasers (different types) - liquid paper - scale - watch
