WD Wet Area Elevations

Here are the scribbles regarding the wet area drawings.
Also refer to the WD Checklist.
I'll look for some better examples.

WD Checklist

The WD Checklist is on Canvas.

But also included here.

Roof Plan Stuff

Imagine you are viewing the roof suspended from a crane or hot air balloon, you do not have xray vision. 

Will add to this as necessary.

Roof Plan

Also take a look at the WD checklist.
Refer to:
A.S. 3500.3 for S.W Design
A.S. 1685? for ladders
A.S. ?  Fall Arrestors

Scribbles for sction

I hope these help

Welcome to 2018

Greetings group WD2B.
Yes it was all to fast.
But dont panic (yet).

WD Notes - Timesheet

WD Grading

This is the rubric header/ criteria for how grading works.

Assessment Project	Project Brief [Proforma]	Project Brief [On Time]	Project Brief [Filename]	Project Brief [Format]	Project Brief [Efficiency]	Project Brief [Workflow]	Project Brief [Completion]	Text [Printing]	Text [Media]	Text [Titleblock]	Text [Consistency]	Text [Elements]	Text [Dimensions]	Text [Grid]	Graphics [Line Styles]	Graphics [Backlining]	Graphics [Material Hatch]	Graphics [Sheet Layout]	Graphics [Elevations]	Building Elements [Objects]	Building Elements [Details]	Building Elements [Research]	General Feedback	Score	Grade
	10.00%							30.00%							30.00%					30.00%			Task Weighting	Score	Grade
	10.00%	10.00%	5.00%	5.00%	10.00%	20.00%	40.00%	5.00%	5.00%	10.00%	10.00%	30.00%	30.00%	10.00%	30.00%	30.00%	20.00%	10.00%	10.00%	40.00%	40.00%	20.00%	Category Weighting

Will explain further in class, what each of these elements means, although hopefully, it is somewhat self explanatory.

Catching up.

Trying to post up all the notes from the last 2 weeks WD and DES to clear my desktop, so here goes...Post-analysis under each image...

 Okay, this 1st one, was actually a scribble from 3rd year, but most of my class notes are largely interchangeable. This looks at brick veneer wall, and considers the arrangement of the various skins or lines that constitute that wall. With the following question. What are the architectural and structural implications if we reorganise the sequence of these lines, and expand the spaces in between?
(Think about this one for a while).

 WD: The usual submission requirements.
Timesheets and Markups are obligatory.
[RANT MODE ON] THERE ARE STILL SOME STUDENTS WHO HAVE NOT PRINTED LARGE FORMAT SETS, AND I HAVE YET TO SIGHT THEM. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE, AND I WILL BE INSISTING ON SEEING THEM NEXT CLASS. [RANT MODE OFF]


This one is a design image. Covering the crucial need to not let revit control the graphic outcome of your projects.

• all arrows point up (not down)
• do not use default hand rails.
• simplify furniture, most times outlines are enough.
• use a scale bar not an odd ratio.
• small key legend is preferable to room tags.

Use Virginia Macleod's Books as a base graphic style/ bench mark. Clean and simple lines, tones are better than hatches.

Simple message here. Design is inclusive, that is the influences (dare I say context again!!!) inform the scheme and graphic.
Do not forget the data tower, it is a requirement in the brief.
Also information being collected from the site has to be conveyed to the general public on site. This has to be conveyed in the final scheme. Key physical elements have to be included. Bike paths, river, trees and contours (minimum, not negotiable).

 The plans have to include more than a nod and a wink to the BCA. At the very least, Doors need to open in the path of travel. Stairs need to comply. some of the sections I have seen, have conveniently ignored stair geometry. Make sure they work.

This image is about the incongruities I am seeing about the graphic quality of the floor plans. Each plan graphic needs to relate to the floors above and below them.

Design one again, tones not hatches.
Glass as black.

WD. This is a critical detail, I am seeing the same solution a number of times, which is far from convincing.

another pick just reminding ppl of the details required for this project.

WD#5

so little time, so much fun...

Messy scratchings for the entry canopy.

Even messier musings on the roof plan.

Remember:

Look up the A.S. Codes for Fall Arrestors and include them.

Dimension to grid all penetrations through the roof

Pay close attention to the roof plumbing.

"remember the raindrop"

WD Elevational Scribbles

Here is the screen grab from the not quite working white board... use it as you can.

WD#1 Group 2A

As requested,
here is the titleblock image as requested.
Thanks for turning up today folks.

WD - Amendments and Transmittals

This text relates to the document transmittal form/ amendments to drawings.

All WD printouts that I now request should include the area that has been amended, (revision cloud), the updated titleblock, and an accompanying document transmittal form.

This is a transmittal form you can use. [LINK]

WD Notes.

Might be at home looking after a sick kiddie, but I'm working.
Here's a quick note on window and door tagging.

WD details details details

Notes from today's class.

Process to get a detail.

• Elements
• Dimensions
• Fixing methods

WD Assessment Feedback

OMG!
My turn to panic.
I have started grading the precast project, was it a revit thing? Most of the work is very incomplete.
If it was me, not checking your work more I apologise.
All I can say is, it is now time to GET BUSY!

No more other subjects or (soundboard) distractions. Some of you NEED to show me evidence on this current and LAST project that you know what you're doing...
for next class.
1. PRINT OUT AN A2 SET OF ALL SHEETS. BEFORE CLASS
2. WE WILL BE GOING OVER TO THE PERIODICALS SECTION OF THE LIBRARY TO RESEARCH DETAILS, MAKE SURE YOUR PHOTOCOPY CARD IS PRIMED.
3. WE WILL BE SPENDING MOST OF THE CLASS WITH THE COMPUTERS OFF! I NEED TO SEE PEOPLE RESOLVING DETAILS. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SOME PENS PENCILS AND TRACE.

Everyone be there!

WD02 Wk.4

Basic Screen grab from class notes.

Take out message: RESEARCH

materials: colour code or synthesise base materials, list suppliers and manufacturers.

construction method: determine spans, sizes, construction sequence.

standard details -detail magazine, Swanston Street Library, built examples in Melbourne

WD -the aftermath

Just like the hitch hikers guide.... the first rule is 'dont panic'.

To those students that received a 'NN' grade most were in the 4.5 to 4.8 range.
Students with NN results lower than that were essentially for incomplete submissions.
The highest mark was a 9 the average mark was a 5.6.
Without getting all techie/ mathematical statistical; the range looked only a little skewed toward the NN side, but this was also due to several non-submissions of the project.

(20% is a hill of...beans)

It is only weighted 20%, so it is not game over by a long shot.
Revit levels the playing field, and homogenises the output a little, so it is less likely to cause data errors (missing elements).

So complete the model in 3D as much as you can, then move into 2D line work. This project is not due in until 2nd semester, so there is oodles of time to learn the program.
(the focus of your time at the moment should be DESIGN!)

Minor Delays Expected

Sorry WD 2A.
I have 3A going a little nuts at the moment, wondering about their grades... so I'm try to put them all out of their misery.
Your grief and/ or elation over the WD marks should be up on Bb, today or tomorrow at the latest.
Promise

WD Confusion. Salvator vs Epping

Apologies over the confusion surrounding the tilt panel project.
The assessment task is as stated on Blackboard.
