Architectural Drawing and LAB IModule Architectural Drawing I
Academic Year 2025/2026 - Teacher: GIUSEPPE DI GREGORIOExpected Learning Outcomes
The student must know the principles of orthogonal projections, sections, axonometric projections, perspective projections of the building blocks of architecture, such as roofs, stairs, vaults, etc.
Course Structure
Teaching takes place through frontal theoretical lessons that are composed of explanatory graphic constructions. The student is required to draw in the classroom, in some personal graphic tables, what the teacher shows in the lessons. The process takes place under the supervision of the teacher. At the end of the lesson the work carried out is delivered to the teacher who checks the degree of advancement, then the graphic tvaola is returned during the course of the lesson. The student then must eventually complete the graphic table.
Required Prerequisites
Detailed Course Content
Orthogonal projections (generality, P.O of the point, of the line and of the plane, of objects ...)
Axonometric projections
Orthogonal and axonometric projections of: barrel vaulting, cross vaulting, sailing, mirroring even with intersections of objects.
Roof geometry (plans, elevations and sections)
The representation of a vertical connection: the stairs.
The representation scales.
The perspective
