5N0784 Computer Aided Draughting 2D, Architectural Drawing & Renewable Energy Systems, Assignment, PC, Ireland

ASSESSMENT BRIEF – GUIDELINES

Task: This project combines 4 Modules, as indicated above.

You are required to:

1. Copy the attached set of scaled technical drawings converting the dimensions from the imperial to the metric.
2. Produce CAD drawings to a suitable scale (for example, 1:20).
3. Produce Research and Drawings related to Renewable Energy Systems as per Teacher Instruction.
4. Produce an A3 Presentation Booklet (digital version only) (scan in hand technical drawings).

Requirements:

Part 1 – Technical Drawings

Copy the attached drawing by hand to include, 1no. Plan, 4no. Elevations (front, back and two side elevations), two interior sections and 1no. 3D view hand rendered (with colour).
You are required to pay attention to the following:

• Appropriate line weights and line types
• Handwriting and dimensions
• Use of Hatch
• Borders and Title block details

Part 2 – Based on your completed technical drawings you are required to prepare a full set of AutoCAD drawings.

• You are required to pay attention to the following:
• Layers, Line weights and line types
• Use of Hatch
• Text and dimensions
• Borders and Title block details
• Scale, page set up and plotting.

Part 4 – SketchUp Model
Based on the CAD drawings, build a SketchUp Model of your Seomra. Produce a minimum of 2 visuals and 2 Sections using Section Tools in SketchUp.

Part 5 – Reflect on the project and evaluate your work.
Write an evaluation of your own work based on how you felt you did with the project: time management, approach to project, what you learned, any issues, how you solved any problems that were encountered etc. 500 words min.

Submission Details: Collate the above and prepare an A3 digital booklet in Canva or similar software.

All files to be submitted digitally. You will need to photograph or scan any practical work and sketches. Ensure all files follow the Firstname lastname format.

The Booklet will contain the following pages:
Title Page
Contents Page

Research Pages on renewable requirements as per Teacher Instruction.
Scans of hand technical drawing pages and Hand rendered 3D visual.
Inserted CAD drawing pages (no screenshots) you can convert .pdfs via https://www.ilovepdf.com/SketchUp Model Visuals Self Evaluation

You will submit your work to all teachers via email or one drive – TBC.

LEARNING OUTCOMES- Renewable Energy Systems

CAD

1. Interpret key terminology, commands and icons associated with computer aided draughting.
2. Utilise appropriate drawing commands to create a range of two-dimensional geometrical constructions to include lines, polylines, splines, arcs and circles.
3. Utilise a range of editing commands to modify existing constructions.
4. Create, insert and edit a variety of blocks, layers and templates
5. Employ appropriate techniques to customise a drawing in order to plot a page set-up and layouts.
6. Apply a range of labelling techniques to include hatching, text and dimensioning.
7. Modify the properties of a drawing to include application of line-type, line-weights, colours and scales.
8. Customise and restore default drawing tool settings.

Architectural Drawing

1. Apply draughting techniques to include architectural conventions and symbols
2. Investigate the architectural world to include freehand sketches and other research evidence
3. Illustrate architectural detailing on both freehand and scaled drawings
4. Analyse space and form in designs
5. Construct orthographic views in standard scales to include both first angle and third angle
6. Experiment with various three dimensional (3D) architectural details to include cutaway details
7. Employ perspective views to communicate designs
8. Apply Computer Aided Draughting (CAD) technology to designs
9. Interpret a specific design brief considering planning, objectives, preparation and time management
