Bestselling Work-Text

Dennis, It was me. I want to revise my current AutoCAD curriculum to
include samples of civil work. More than 50% of my class was placed in
internships with civil engineering type firms.
Terry Wohlers provided several references to Architectural texts.
Thanks for your help,
Bob
Robert,
Then you did see the project I suggested?
Dennis
Dennis,
No, when was it created?
To whom was it sent?
Bob.
Robert,
I forget. I'm sure it was last week or weekend. In a nutshell; have your
students create a generic fast food franchise. Select a site for it and let
the Civils have at it in terms of site layout, utilities and drainage, etc.
Take the Architecturally inclined students and have them do the building.
The electrical aspects of the layout aren't something I'd want a student
doing, but if there's interest, let somebody have at it. The artistically
inclined can have at the signage and logo creation as well as helping rough
out the building configuration. This project can be as involved as you want
to make it. Get some local professionals involved as mentors to help with
the rules, regs, and ordinances peculiar to your area. It can make for an
interesting semester<g>.
