Lectures.

Winter term, full study.

Required: Architecture 2, 3, 4, 8, 9, 17. 16. ARCHITECTURAL DESIGNING—(Residences).—Practice in office methods of preparing drawings and in the design and the study of the requirements for dwellings are the subject of this study. The work is limited to residences, since this class of buildings is likely to afford the graduate his first opportunity for independent original work. Lectures with blackboard sketches to be copied in students' notes. Problems in design worked out in rendered drawings. Fall term, full study. Associate

Professor WHITE.

Required: Architecture 2, 3, 4, 8, 9, 17, 20. 17. ARCHITECTURAL DESIGNING—(Problems).—Each student makes sketches at small scale for assigned problems, which are criticised and modified until approved, then worked out in plans, elevations, and details, these drawings being rendered in shade or color as required. The object is to obtain as much practice in original design as possible; and in the making of rapid and effective sketches, suitable for submission to a client or employer. Fall term, full study. Mr. TEMPLE. Required: Architecture 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 18, 20. 18. ARCHITECTURAL COMPOSITION,—A careful study is made of the laws of architectural design and of the results of experience embodied in the text-book, extended by numerous references to other authors. Commences with general principles, passing to an examination of proportions employed in most important styles, arrangement of plan, external design in general and detail, ceilings and interiors, arrangement of corridors, stairways and entrances, of internal courts, and of halls for large assemblages. Frequent problems in design afford practical applications of the principles. Ricker's Translation of Architektonische Composition (Handbuch der Architektur). Sfring term, full study. Professor

RICKER.

Required: Architecture 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 14, 17, 20. 19. ARCHITECTURAL ENGINEERING.—This continues the study of graphic statics, commenced in "roofs," with applications to metallic roofs of wide span, roof trusses of curved or unusual form, and those supported by abutments and jointed. Spherical and conical trussed domes. Effect of moving loads on girders, the graphical analysis of the arch, vault, and, dome, and of the Gothic system of vault and buttress. Construction and details of steel skeleton buildings. Practical applications are made to a series of problems in design for specified cases.
