Focus on your plans:

1. Floor Plans:
   • Walls with Wall Types Keyed
   • Room Keys
   • Door Keys & Door Schedule
   • Dimension Strings Across the plan
   • Identify a list of additional wall types that need to be created
     • (plumbing chase for bathroom, etc.)
2. RCP Reflected Ceiling Plans:
   • Add ceiling materials (2×2 or 2 x 4 grid or GWB on metal studs)
   • Lights (you will need to load the families)
   • Return and Supply Registers (you will need to load the families)
3. Stairs:
   • Add stairs to the plan-
   • Add shaft openings for the plans
4. Research:
   • RCP Plans – review RCP plans online or just walk around and look up at the ceiling
   • Stairs – According to NYC Building code how high can a stair be before a landing is required.  Cite the line of code on your team website.

Work on your floor plan.  Add the following:

• Walls – not generic but 1 and 2 hr or non-rated walls
• Room Numbers and Names – develop an organized system
• Doors with Door numbers
• A sketch of at least one space for the reflected ceiling plan to show the following:
• Lights
• Ceiling Materials (hung ceiling)
• Sprinkler Locations
• Supply and Return registers

Both should be uploaded to Blackboard.

If you check blackboard you will see that all assignments are graded.  This includes those of you who submitted late work for some of the earlier assignments.  You will also see that your mid-semester progress set of drawings is graded. The chart below will let you see where you stand in the class relative to your peers.  Please be aware that there is time for final grades to change (up or down) based on the work from now till the final presentation and submission.  To pass the course you must earn a C or better or you will be required to repeat.  There is still time for everyone to improve there grades and for some of you an A grade is still possible!  You will find an assignment in Blackboard that contains your grade as well as comments for each of you – please be sure to read this and seek me out if you have questions.

I look forward to seeing everyone on Monday.  A reminder that you are working on two assignments:

1 – Home Depot Materials Assignment – based on our field trip put together your materials presentation – covering a minimum of three materials.

2- Work on developing your wall sections based on your materials choices.  Continue your research and begin to make necessary 3D families.
