Course Descriptions 421 DET 1350 - Residential Architectural Design (3) F, Sp The study of residential and light commercial (Type IV and V buildings) architectural design and construction documents. Covers procedures used in developing residential plans using 2D CAD. Includes architectural design and drafting standards, conventions, procedures and current building code requirements of the International Residential Code (IRC) and International Energy Conservation Code (IECC). Prerequisite: DET 1250. DET 2000 - Introduction to Building Information Modeling (BIM) (3) F, Sp The study of commercial architectural (Type I, II and III buildings) construction documents and an introduction to Building Information Modeling (BIM). Covers procedures used in developing commercial plans using 3D CAD to create a building information model that uses integrated design between architecture, structure and mechanical electrical and plumbing (MEP). Includes commercial architectural drafting standards, design procedures, and building code requirements including the latest release of the International Building Code (IBC) and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) guidelines. Software applications used to develop commercial architectural designs using BIM will be explored. DET 2460 - Product Design Fundamentals Using3DCAD(3)F,Sp Product Design is the creative process of applying scientific and mathematical principles, experience, and judgment to the development of the solution of a technical product or system to meet a specific need. Turning ideas into design will incorporate problem identification, market research and brainstorming possible solutions, develop detailed part and assembly drawings, implementation, and evaluation. Sketching, gears/cams/shafts, advanced GD&T, tolerance build-up, tolerances for assemblies, introduction to rapid prototyping, and CNC design for manufacturing concepts will be presented. Advanced 3-D modeling software applications will include: library of parts, assembly constraints, motion constraints, drive constraints, and adaptive design. Three lectures per week. Three lectures per week. Prerequisite: DET 1160. DET 2650 - Product Design & Development (3) Sp Uses CAD to lay out advanced production drawings and design. Uses the Machinery's Handbook, ANSI standards, geometric dimensioning and tolerances and manufacturer's reference materials. Supports the design and drafting required for senior project. Prerequisite: DET 2460. DET 2660 - Architectural Structural Design & Detailing (BIM II) (3) Sp An analysis of the structural behavior of architecturally engineered buildings and structures. A study of the properties of materials and their connections used in the construction of the built environment including: wood, steel, concrete, masonry and various other commonly used construction materials. Students will learn how loads are applied to simulate the stresses placed on structural components to determine what solution meets the design criterion established by code and design professionals in residential and commercial applications. 2D and 3D CAD are used to create residential and commercial construction documents including structural details, wall, floor and roof framing plans. Prerequisite: MATH 1080 (or MATH 1040 and MATH 1050) and DET 2000. DET 2830 - Directed Readings (1-3) F, Sp Directed readings in Design Engineering Technology including product design and development and architectural areas. Must have department approval. DET 2890 - Cooperative Work Experience (1-3) Su, F, Sp Open to all advanced students in Design Engineering Technology. Department approval required before registration. Provides academic credit for on-the-job experience. Grade and amount of credit will be determined by the department. DET 2920 - Short Courses, Workshops, Institutes and Special Programs (1-4) F, Sp Faculty approval required. Consult the semester class schedule for the current offering under this number. The specific title and credit authorized will appear on the student transcript. DET 3000 - BIM & The Green Built Environment (BIM III) (3) F An analysis of sustainability in the green built environment. Course discussions will include how green building can be integrated into new and existing construction, the comparison of conventional and green construction practices, short and long term costs and benefits of green building as well as the history, current technologies, and emerging trends of green building. Software will be used to run analysis of power use and generation as well as other design decisions found within sustainability in the built environment. Prerequisite: DET 2000. DET 3100 - Tool Design (3) F Tool design principals used for work piece control in manufacturing and production. Topics include responsibilities of a tool designer, the design process, economics of design, tooling materials, and tool drawings and specifications. Other topics will include jigs, fixtures, gages, dies and tooling required by specialized manufacturing processes. Prerequisite: MFET 1210, DET 2460, and MATH 1080 (or MATH 1050 and MATH 1060). DET 3300 - Applied Kinematic Analysis (3) Sp Graphical representation of the motion of bodies without reference to the forces that cause the motion. Devices will be modeled and the limits of movement of components defined so that overall machine design can be animated and analyzed. Prerequisite: MFET 2300. DET 3400 - Technical Illustration and Documentation I (3) F Projects in design presentation using CAD and other computer graphics software as the primary medium. Image capture, image processing and manipulation, types of views, use of color, composition, page layout, integration of text, and forms of output. Prerequisite: DET 2000. DET 3460 - Parametric Design Graphics (3) Sp An advanced design graphics course using state-of-the-art parametric modeling software. Topics include: parametric modeling fundamentals, constructive solid geometry concepts, model history, parent/child relationships, parametric constraints & relations, datum features, symmetrical features, 3D construction tools, advanced modeling tools, and assembly modeling. Prerequisite: DET 1060 and NTM 1700.
