Welcome to ben's page (mr. awesome) XD :) lol Olive Juice.

HI BEN!!!!!! I learned a lot of skills in this cad class like how to build a house and put a roof on it. I could now build a house on this program if i had to for a job. I am that good. I was so beast that I didn't run in to any problems. I was successful with building an awesome kitchin. I have gold appliances and that should get me a four. This wright up is awsome so that should get me a four. ^Lies.





Well my last drawing was really easy, I didn't do anything challenging. In this one I actually had to figure out how to build a porch and piers. Well I learned how to make a porch and that will help me when I build my dream house. These skills could apply if I do this as a job and work on a house with a porch. I could not figure out the __soffit__ and so I had to ask you Mr. Bailey... I had to ask you. I was successful in everything, I made it look awesome by customizing it a lot like the flag and the easy up on the porch and I did not put in both sets of stairs so don't take points off from that.



Well in this drawing I had a house already built. I had to figure out the north pointer tool and the time tool. This skill will help me because in the project when I make an eco friendly building I need to know south so i can face the front of the house to south. this can help me so if I ever have to find out what the shadows would look like if my house was in Europe. I could not for the life of me figure out the north line thing so to fix the problem i read the book. I had the shadow be at the same angle as the porch design one.



Well in this I did not design a house I worked on the terrain around the building. Well i learned how to make a hill or valley in the land scape. This will help me in make the split level because it needs to be built in the side of a hill. If i ever had to make a terrain layout to save my life I could. When I started I could not figure out the elevation line tool but I fixed that by reading the book. I made awesome squiggly lines at the top.



Creating my logo was the best thing I have done so far. I think I spent the most time thinking it out. It was really easy but I did have a problem trying to make it in to a cad block. I fixed my problem by reading the book. I could now make a logo for a company and get some money from it. This was the most creative thing i have done in this class.

Sustainable Sites: the green building has been built on a pre developed site this is shown on figure 1. A big parking garage witch helps with the upkeep of the land because you can park in it instead of on the grass. It has a place were bikes can be stored witch is in the garage and i planted trees around the house shown in figure 1.

water efficiency: Toilets and urinals that use less water shown in figure 3. A down spout helps collect the water in a big container shown in figure 1. I use rain water in the kitchen in the sink to wash stuff.

energy&atmosphere: Solar panels on the roof to power the house from the solar panels shown in figure 1. Thermal heating shown in figure 4. When built it was a local contractor and local materials.

materiel and resources: Build it on pre setup land with all the hook ups shown in figure 1. Used the wood you cut down to build house thats were the siding comes from use local sources

indoor environment: low V.O.C. paint on every thing shown in all figures. Air purifier in figure 4 the one on the far right is a purifier. House is lit from lots of windows

I built a two story house because it is a lot better. It gives you double floor space but also you dont have to build a bigger roof. It also is more energy efficient because you dont have to build more eletric jacks just run splitters up through the floor. it is not verry handycap exssesable because of the stairs but all you have to build is.
