1.1. Aims of the course
The initial objective is to know the most common and used techniques and ways of expression.
But besides knowing how to express oneself through drawing, it is essential and equally important to learn to observe what we are going to have to represent and then shape on paper. Before we draw or project something
we have to understand those elements that we will have to draw a posteriori
1.2. Context and importance of this course in the degree
It is a subject placed in the first semester of studies (which would be equivalent to the first semester of the first year).
It is mandatory.
It has a teaching load of 6 ECTS credits

2.2. Learning goals
Ability to apply representation systems: dihedral system
Ability to develop the sketch, proportionality, language, and techniques of graphic representation of the elements and construction processes.
Introduction to 2D and 3D CAD
Ability to interpret and elaborate the graphic documentation required for a basic architecture project.
Ability to obtain the blueprints for building and construction projects.
Know the basics of construction applied drawing
2.3. Importance of learning goals
This subject has a vital importance in the development of the Degree in Technical Architecture.
In the world of Building, Construction, Engineering and Architecture, the correct graphic representation of any of the elements involved in a project is necessary.
In this subject, the technical drawing and the graphic expression that will be seen will be focused directly on the world of the planimetric representation necessary to represent and interpret all the documentation that may be included in a Building, Architecture, Construction, Engineering project. .
