Spatial geometry : exploration of descriptive drawing

Teacher(s)

Delcommune Thierry; Malevez Jerome;

Language

French

Main themes

This teaching unit is designed to provide the necessary mental flexibility to see in space and understand the representation of three dimensional objects. Moreover, the care required in making working drawings brings necessary rigour for strong graphic expression.
Monge 2 :

• Fold lines
• Rotation
• Pierce point
• Volume
• Perspective
• Amount of sunshine

Content

MONGE II

1. Definition of planes and representations of volumes in space.
2. Manipulation of planes and volumes by the techniques of rabattement and projection.
3. Section and interpenetration of volumes;
4. Development of the concepts of the intersection of planes and of points of intersection.

SOLAR GEOMETRY

1. Drawing of theoretical shade in natural and artificial light to a point, a line segment, surface and volume and its application to the field of representation of the architectural project.
2. Study the sunshine of a building by its own shadow and scope depending on its location and for a given date.
3. Development of solar mask of a building for a given site.

PERSPECTIVE

1. Definition of the constitutive elements of conic projection and of their peculiarities.
2. Choice and positioning of the image and of the spectator.
3. Resolution of an image in perspective with or without accessible vanishing points.
4. Constitution of a method for resolving the problems of representing three dimensions that arise in the course of the architecture project.
5. Construction of the perspective of a complex volume and its shadow.

Teaching methods

Same as in LBARC1120.

Evaluation methods

Students will sit a written examination on the material pertaining to Monge II in the May-June session, at the end of the quadrimester.
