Architectural Drafting for Interior Designers - Tapa blanda

Preface 1. What Is Drafting? Definition History of drafting; how it has been used through the centuries. How is it useful for interior designers Why draft on boards Presentation, Construction and Shop drawings 2D vs. 3D 2. Tools and How to Use Them Tools: What they are and how to use them. Drafting machine, parallel bar, triangles, light, architect/engineer/metric scales, Ames lettering guide, pencils, disposable/non-disposable ink pens, leads, erasers, brush, dividers, compass, tape, layout tape, templates (circle, furniture), French curve, vellum, Mylar, blueprinting/copying, AutoCAD, layout tape, calculator (architectural, metric conversions), rub-on letters, lettering wheel. 3. Drafting Conventions Line conventions, weights, quality, symbols, types AIA coding Sheet layout ID labels Centering/sheet grids Title blocks Sheet index Placing notes and leader lines Lettering styles, tips, rub-on's, templates, wheel 4. Field Work and Sketching Measuring: take and utilize accurate field measurements Field drafting tools Sketching techniques Sketch furniture and floor plans 2-D and 3-D. 5. Drawing a Floor Plan Floor Plan Second Floor Presentation vs. Construction Overview of the design process in relation to construction drawings Bubble Diagrams/Schematics Programming Site and environmental factors, orientation Space Planning Clearances Ergonomics Proxemics/human behavior Anthropometrics Furniture sizes: residential and non-residential Building Codes relevant to IDs (fire, life safety, hallway lengths, room sizes, number of exits, fire ratings of materials/construction, ADA compliance for doors/universal design) Furniture Plan, using templates Partition Plan Furniture Schedule CSI 16 Division Format and Sweet's Catalogs 6. Construction Drawings Reflected Ceiling Plan Electrical Plan Demolition Plan Mechanical/HVAC Plan/Climate Control VOIA/power/data Plan Plot Plan Lighting Schedule Other Schedules: Kitchen equipment, appliance Elevations Full Sections Wall Sections: masonry, steel wood Details 7. Drawing Orthographically What orthographic drawing is (theory) Why it is done Solving orthographic projection problems: furniture, elevation, section 8. Windows and Doors Vocabulary Hinge types Materials, styles Elevation views Details Sizes Symbols Door and window schedules 9. Dimensioning Plans, elevations, sections, furniture AWI (Architectural Woodworking Institute) standards NKBA standards metric Case goods, cabinet sections 10. Drawing Pictorials Axonometric (paraline): oblique, diametric, trimetric, isometric Perspective: 1 and 2 point interior. Square, irregular, round rooms, sloped ceiling, caddy-corner furniture. 11. Drawing Stairs and Fireplaces Stairs: vocabulary, types, sizes, layouts, design tips Guards, handrails Calculate # of steps Exterior stairs, ramps Fireplaces: vocabulary, types, layouts, design tips Glossary Terms used in the book Vocabulary that facilitates communication with contractors and trade sources. Design terms Appendices Legends of symbols Clearances Sample plans for study/evaluation/assignments Millwork Case goods/cabinet sizes Window and door sizes Chase walls/plumbing Electrical/lighting symbols Furniture sizes (residential and commercial) Metric conversions Graphic symbols (north arrow, section line, drawing titles, keynotes, etc.) Floor plans for study Associations (FIDER, ADAAG, NKBA) Design, drafting organizations (US and international)

For the first time, beginning interior designers can learn how to graphically communicate their ideas with a resource that is designed specifically for them! While traditional drafting books focus on architectural and engineering readers, Architectural Drafting for Interior Designers eliminates the "widgets" and irrelevant coverage that is often seen, and incorporates material and examples that are relevant and meaningful to today's interior designers. This book also addresses the specific needs of beginning interior designers by focusing on topics needed before AutoCAD is even introduced, such as how to draw a floor plan, how to use it to create an interior elevation, and how to understand the relationship between 2D and 3D drawings. The only book that is written to the standards of the NCIDQ and interior design trade associations like NKBA, this will provide readers with a strong, standards-based foundation in interior design.
