CD310 Civil Drafting and Intro to GIS/ Richard Pardys
CD 310 - Civil Drafting and Introduction to GIS
Class #1
Richard Pardys, Instructor, Phone - 215-763-0842, rpardys@itt-tech.edu
About the Civil Drafting Class
There are two learning objectives for this class. The first is to learn about civil engineering. This is a very broad field, but in this course, we will focus on learning how to create maps and record aspects of geography and topography. The project, however, will allow you to explore another aspect of engineering in which you may have an interest. The second objective is to introduce you to Geographic Information Systems (GIS). We will use the textbook, Civil Drafting and an Introduction to GIS, for this course.

General Notes
Specific Notes
Break up into groups. Each group is to examine a different USGS Topographic Map and make observations about it. Write out your observations
Linework – What type of linework do you see? Use figure 1-20 on page 25 to determine what types of lines they are using. Do the lines on the USGS map match the the lines in the book? Is there any additional types of lines shown that is not in the book?
Text – What is the size of the text shown? Are there different sizes of text? Why? What style of text is used? Some examples in your book are in Figures 1-21 to 1-23 on pages 25 and 26.
General Notes and Specific Notes – Are general or specific notes used on the maps? Give at least three examples of each.

Maps and Legends
Use the internet to find three different types of maps. Maps would be considered different from one another according to the list of map types on the handout from today’s notes. Each map you choose should have a legend with at least four items.
For each map, figure out what type of map it is according to the list of maps on the handout, and look at the legend to interpret what the map is explaining.
Print out both the maps and the legend for each map on separate
8 1/2 x 11 sheets.
We’ll discuss all your findings after you complete the activity.

The Class
This class will be an introduction to drafting technologies. There will be readings from the textbook to introduce you to various types of drafting techniques, design and ideas behind the workplaces that use drafting. We will learn in this class how to use drafting tools such as triangles, t-squares, and various types of pencils used in drafting.

Choose one discipline in the portion of your notes below labeled “Fields using Technical Drawing”. Give a short history of the field, tell what is done in the field, and why it is important to our society. (One paragraph for each of these three topics). Then find a major project which has been done in the field, and take at least one page to explain it. Include at least three illustrations. When you are done, you should have a two page typed paper describing your field, and an important or creative project done in it. The 3 pictures (minimum) are not included in the page count, but are required. Be prepared to present your findings to the class in the next class session.

CD 340 Physical and Computer Aided Modeling
December 1 , 2008 – Class #1
Richard Pardys, Instructor, Phone - 215-763-0842, rpardys@itt-tech.edu
About the Physical and Computer Aided Modeling Class
In this class, you will be introduced to two aspects of modeling. You will learn about making models by traditional methods such as using chipboard or foam core Styrofoam, and also computer aided modeling. We will learn the program Autodesk VIZ for the computer aided modeling component. There will be a class project in which you will be required to make a physical model of a house. The textbook for the class is, Physical and Computer Aided 3-D Modeling by Pearson Custom Publishing, which covers AutoDesk VIZ. You will also receive a handout textbook (Physical Modeling Handout) which will cover physical model building, and there will be readings and assignments from this handout.

Project Homework- Group
At 1/8” = 1’-0” redraw the plan on page 1.28. You do not need to include the furniture.
Place the house on a 60’ x 100’ lot showing the street, driveway, and the north arrow.
Redesign the elevation for the house in a manor that is more creative that what is shown on page 1.29. Four elevations requires showing all sides of the house. You may sketch these elevations by hand, but in short order, you’ll need to draw them on CAD.
