AutoCAD vs. ArchiCAD in Architecture Architectural design today has moved from designing by hand to designing with several different software programs that have made the job much easier. Two of the main programs in many architectural firms today are AutoCAD2000 and ArchiCAD 6.5. Both are very productive design tools but each has its own defects in certain areas of the design process. Design processes today have been reversed from designing from the inside to the outside, to designing from

According to Lucy Friend, “Computer Aided Drafters make $79,000 a year on average.”(n.d.). Computer Aided Drafting unlocks the door to numerous opportunities for employment; I selected Computer Aided Drafting because it’s so extraordinary with AutoCAD, because of the uses of Computer Aided Drafting, History of CAD, education requirements, and immeasurable career opportunities that are obtainable. First off, CAD is computer technology that has contributed in design and drafting of a portion or an
Thomas Alba Edison made a thousand unsuccessful attempts at inventing the wonder of modern society, the light bulb. I felt incredibly similar when I was building my water bottle rocket. Whether it was modifying the parachute’s diameter, fortifying the union between the bottles, or changing the angle of the fins, most attempts were failures. However, like any other engineer, I thrived and persisted for a moment of success. During freshmen year, my teacher guided us to the world of engineering by assigning
I’m often posed with the question, “If you want to study engineering then why do you want it to be Aerospace? Why not Mechanical or Electrical Engineering,” when expanding on my plans for college to family and friends who inquire about the subject. “Mechanical Engineering will open up the door to more job opportunities once you graduate. The field is much larger,” is also a comment that I frequently receive. Having been given many chances to reflect on this, my answer has become as efficient as I

I have always had a considerable interest in architecture, ever since studying Fine Arts in Tunisia. Thereafter, I have looked at it in detail through my study in the University of Tripoli (UT); where I spent five years, and gathered a huge amount of architectural knowledge. This interest would suggest that I would be well suited to the job of an architect. I have always believed that it would be a very interesting career for me which needs a lot of imagination, visualization and artistic sense.
This week I was given the opportunity to visit Korda Engineering located at 1650 Watermark Drive, Columbus, Ohio. Their place of business was located in an office park near downtown Columbus. There were few office buildings that surrounded, and there were no restaurants to be seen. From the road, Korda looks like a simple two story brick building. The windows of the structure are plain running horizontal and parallel with the top and bottom floors. The most interesting part of the exterior
Using the Internet in Vocational Education "It is an exciting time in education. The Internet offers new opportunities for students and teachers a link to learn in interesting ways" (Ellsworth 1994, p. xxiii). "Telecommunications truly is one of the most exciting educational tools I have encountered in my teaching career" (Watson 1994, p. 41). "The Internet's usefulness is limited only by our level of commitment. We first have to get plugged in before we can get turned on. Then we can help
Before computers there were hands and tools. Before hands and tools there were just hands. Humans have always been designing and throughout human history drafting is what became of it. With new technology in building during the earlier years drafting needed to be changed to accommodate it. Humans have always been able to find better ways to accomplish things. Drafting is no different. Before people used tools to draw something they went to what we call now a “General Contractor” with an idea and
Born in Goa, with its many famous beaches, I grew up along the seaside. As a child I have spent my evenings watching huge marine vessels entering and leaving the port and developed curiosity about the working of huge ships. Because 70 % of the planet is covered with water, sea transport has been the largest carrier of freight throughout recorded human history. A lot remains to be explored about the water bodies in the world; moreover, the rising crunch on land resources will force further exploration
Interview Assignment Bassam Albakri balbakri@uwo.ca ES1050 – Design Studio 011 Dr. Kreyman December 1st, 2014 In this assignment, a practicing engineer that has experience in working in project management was interviewed. The purpose of the interview is to increase my understanding of what engineers do at the workplace and to educate future engineers on how to become successful in their fields. Bakri Albakri is a Projects Manager at Gater Tahseen Al-Fahid located in Saudia Arabia. It was
How modern design techniques are changing the exhibition design industry Aims and objectives: Exhibition design has evolved highly within the past century. What was once a fairly straight forward design discipline, has advanced into a multi-disciplinary area that goes far beyond common practices. With the introduction of new digital techniques i.e. 3D modelling programs, CAD software, etc., a new perspective has been put onto the overall design process of exhibition design. This paper seeks to explore
Cutting Force- It is the force which has to act on stock material in order to cut out the blank or slug. It determines the capacity of the press to be used for the particular tool. Cutting force = L X S X f(max) Where, L= Length of periphery to be cut in mm. (perimeter) S= Sheet thickness in mm. f (max) = shear strength of stock material in N/mm2 Method of reducing press force- In some cases it is necessary to reduce cutting force to prevent press overloading.Following are the methods

a technical software. Mark, an avid science fiction fan, also devotes some of his time researching new technologies that are relevant to the Petroleum Industry. This summer alone, he took on the challenge, of teaching himself Deutsch (German) and AutoCAD. Undoubtedly, both challenges are fantastically difficult, but are doable, he believes. His unwavering determination, strong personality, and nonetheless, his desire for success are the fuel that power Mark’s ambitious pursuits.
a class called Engineering Design. It quickly proved to be the hardest course I had ever taken up to that point, both for its high standards and for the breadth of its material; the curriculum encompassed woodworking, metalworking, modeling with AutoCAD and SolidWorks, writing design briefs and (perhaps most importantly) learning to summon the patience to perfect a project, bit by painstaking bit, over dozens of hours. Engineering Design made me realize that my brain is suited for engineering on
