^4 GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF COURSES 13. HEATING AND VENTILATION.—Scientific theory and practice of warming and ventilating buildings is the object of this study. Commencing with fuels and production of heat, then passing to flow of gases through ajutages and pipes, applying these data to calculation of dimensions of air ducts and chimneys. Different systems of heating by furnaces, hot water, steam, etc., are next examined with details of each. Sources of impurity in the air and requirements of good ventilation are then considered, with the different methods of ventilation by aspiration, by fans, etc., ending with the study of fans of different types. Numerous problems are given and heating plants designed. Carpenter's Heating and Ventilating Buildings; Rickets Notes on Heating and Ventilation. Fall term, at 10, full credit. Associate Professor WHITE. Required: Mathematics 2, 4, 6; Architecture 2, 3, 4, 9, IS; Physics 1, 3; Chemistry 1; Theoretical and Applied Mechanics 1, 2, or 4, 5. 14. ARCHITECTURAL PERSPECTIVE.—Theory of perspective is taught with labor saving methods of abbreviating work, and designing in perspective itself is made a special aim, being very useful to a draftsman in preparing sketches for clients. Problems in angular, parallel, vertical, and curvilinear perspective, as well as in perspective shades and shadows, are solved, requiring original work as far as possible, so as thoroughly to prepare the student for any kind of work in perspective, instead of restricting him to the study and use of a single system. Ware's Modern Perspective. Winter term, at 8.20, full credit. Assistant Professor TEMPLE. Required: General Engineering Drawing 1, 2, 3, 4; Architecture 16, 17. 15. REQUIREMENTS AND PLANNING OF BUILDINGS.—Lectures are fully illustrated by plans sketched on the blackboard, which must be embodied in students' notes. Numerous problems in planning are given. References are made to the University library and the architectural cabinet. Lectures. Winter term, at 10.10, full credit. Associate Professor WHITE. Required: Architecture 4, 8, 9, 17. 16. ARCHITECTURAL DESIGNING—(Residences).—Practice in office methods of preparing drawings and in design and study of the requirements for dwellings. The work is limited to residences, since this class of buildings is likely to afford the graduate his first opportunity for independent original work. Osborne's Notes on Home Planning. Lectures with blackboard sketches to be copied
