Students will learn about multiple building systems as they tackle thermal design, plumbing design, water run-off design, passive solar design, green roof design, as well as structural system design for steel, wood, and concrete. Students create architectural structures using Revit, the industry standard for architectural drawing and documentation. Honors Credit. Fulfills applied art graduation requirement.
