Activity 2.3.9 Residential Plumbing

In this activity we planed the water supply and wastewater disposal system for our Affordable Housing Project and created a plumbing plan to document our design. we added pipes that bring water to the house and a heater that distributes hot water thorough the house. 

Reflection:

1.) What i learned is how cold water and hot water are distributed through a house.

2.)I liked this because it was a fun project.

3.)I didn't dislike anything it was fun.

4.) I wouldn't do anything differently. The project is okay.

Activity 2.3.5 Residential Electrical Systems

In this activity we will use the research we gain, we will layout the electrical system to our Affordable Housing Project. i added windows more to the south and i also added a electrical meter and a electrical panel  to house, i  also added light fixtures to the house.

Reflection:

1.)What i learned from from this activity was how the electrical structure in a building is laid out and the codes you have to follow for a perfect electrical layout plan.

2.)What i liked was getting to chose where you add, the electrical meter, the electrical panel, and light bulbs and switches.

3.) What i disliked was having to include codes for a perfect layout of electrical plan.

4.)This was a good project and there`s nothing i would do differently.

Activity 2.3.7 - Residential Site Planning

In this activity we planed the site and completed the site plan for a home located in Indiana. we were given specific weather data and a pre-development site plan to help us as we plan. we also made changes to our house and added it to Indiana map.

Reflection:

1.) what i learned from this is all the components that are added to a house when its built such as water and waste pipes that lead to the house.

2.)what i liked was having the choice to put the waste and water pipes leading to your house anywhere you wanted.

3.)i didn't dislike anything about this project

4.)lastly i would do anything differently about this project its good the way it is.

Affordable House Drawing

In the affordable house project we got with a partner and had to listen to the other partner and build a house that fits your partners expectations. we followed all the steps of making a house all the way from rough sketches to drawing on the computer using a program called Revit.

Reflection:

1.) What i learned from this project was the process of making a house. also the regulations that are required before a house is built or even after the house is built.

2.)What i liked was getting to work with Revit and having freedom to build a house that you wanted to build

3.)I dislikes all the equations we had to work with.

4.)What i what do differently is have a plan on when things should be done so its easier to stay on track, but overall i liked the project.
