102 UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS. Bequired: Architecture 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10; Theoretical and Applied Mechanics 1, 2, or 4, 5. 13. HEATING AND VENTILATION.—A full knowledge of the scientific theory and of the practice of warming and ventilating buildings is the purpose of this study. Commencing with the fuels and the production of heat, the student passes to the flow of gases through ajutages and pipes, applying these data to the calculation of the dimensions of air ducts and chimneys. The different systems of heating by furnaces, hot water, steam, etc., are next examined, with the details of each. The sources of impurity in the air and the 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. Bicker's Notes on Heating and Ventilation. Fall term, full study. Professor RICKER. Bequired: Mathematics 2, 4, 6; Architecture 2, 3, 4,10; Physics 1, 3; Chemistry 1; Theoretical and Applied Mechanics 1, 2, or 4, 5. 14. ARCHITECTURAL PERSPECTIVE. —The theory of perspective is taught, with all labor saving methods of abbreviating the labor, and designing in perspective itself is made a special aim, this power being very useful to a draughtsman in preparing sketches for clients. Methods of diagonals by triangles, and by coordinates are all used. 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. Six problems are worked out on as many plates. Ware's Modern Perspective. Fall term, full study. ant Professor WHITE and Mr. GUNX. Assist- Bequired: General Engineering Drawing 1, 2, 3; Architecture 2, 3, 4, 8, 9, 10, 20. 15. REQUIREMENTS AND PLANNING OF BUILDINGS.—A study of the varied requirements of buildings erected for the more important purposes, with exercises in making sketch plans for selected programs. Block plans, grouping of parts, light courts, communications, economical and durable construction, approximate cost and rentals, etc. Lectures, with illustrations and references to architectural library and cabinet. Winter term, full study. Professor RICKER. Bequired: Architecture 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 1, 8,-9, 10, 11, 1?.
