3D Design/ Architecture
This subject leads to TQUK Level 3 Diploma in Design engineer Construct!
3D Design Architecture DEC specification is designed to give learners a broad and balanced experience of careers within the built environment such as architecture, surveying, project management, structural and civil engineering.
The qualification is assessed by a combination of an Internally assessed and externally moderated portfolio (50%) Externally set and externally marked examination (50%).
The portfolio component is a project where learners develop, design, deliver and evaluate a fit for purpose, functional building. Their building should be highly sustainable and inclusive to be used by the local community. Building types they might consider are:
⁃ a community health centre
-a nursery/child care centre
-a community sports centre.
Learners can use a site near to the school that they can visit or an area of their existing school grounds as the ‘building site’ location of their building, enabling ease of access to a safe, outdoor space in which they can explore key topics such as spatial requirements, orientation and access.
The four areas of study are:
Defining a sustainable construction project
Developing a sustainable construction project
Delivering a sustainable construction project
Evaluate a sustainable construction project.
These hours are made up of all contact time, guidance or supervision of a learner by a teacher, supervisor, tutor, trainer or other appropriate provider of education or training. GLH for this qualification is 120 hours.
