Module code: BSV09105
Module title: Architectural Technology 3
Examples of equivalent learning:Architectural Design to a level equivalent to SCQF level 9.

The module has two parts:

Design Project 80%
Students are required to develop a design project to meet the client's brief, showing all the required architectural drawings.

Technical Report 20%
The project will require students to critically appraise the design brief, reflect on their findings and develop their technical response to the design programme. It will require students to prepare individual technical design solutions including technical details, calculations and comparisons with building regulation standards. A technical report must justify the design and technical decisions made by students to demonstrate compliance with the client brief and building regulatory requirements.

On completion of this module you will be able to:
LO1: analyse the function, activity and identify the key design issues;
LO2: analyse the structure, construction and services installation and present the findings;
LO3: develop a design portfolio solution(s) for a specific urban location;
LO4: provide a rationale for the design approach taken and justify the building solution adopted;
LO5: justify the form of the development within its particular location and within the context of the site;
LO6: synthesise and evaluate technical detail design solutions and justify your response.
