Digital Craft in Architecture - render3D: 2009

Monday, March 23, 2009

A blog for recording 3D modelling of daylit buildings. Please ensure blog is only used for relevant entries AND that ALL images and quotes are attributed to their source.

Please be aware: blog entries are the responsibility of the students who produce them. The content is proscribed in the course description. Any content outside this prescription is the sole responsibility of the student involved. By making entries in this blog, you agree to these terms and conditions.

Fair Use

All material copied from other sources posted here MUST be attributed to its source, and should not be an inappropriate use of the source material. Thus pictures copied from elsewhere, and not your own renders should be of a small size and not linked to a larger version of the image, unless that link takes people to the source. Only a small percentage of the total original work should be copied in such a manner. The idea is to be illustrative of the nature and content of the material collected - with a reference perhaps to the Amazon web site to purchase the reference. Those who wish to understand the meaning in this context of 'fair use' could do worse than read the Wikipedia article (last accessed March 31 2009) on this topic. The Copyright Act 1994 is what we should all be cogniscent of when publishing material on our web pages or in this blog. The purpose of placing copies of pictures or other materials is to format shift sufficient of the information to make the case or point in the blog. It should not be possible to use the pictures or text that you quote to avoid buying or otherwise obtaining the copyright material.

Using LABELS Wisely

Noted in the lectures on 17th March and 28th April 2009: Using labels to group items under the modelling organisation headings like:

• Establishing Modelling Standards;
• Sources of Model Dimensions;
• Standards for the Sharing of Data;
• File Naming Conventions;
• Backup Policies;
• Name and blog/web page location of Most Recent, (up-to-date) CAD File;
• Our Group Name;
• File Names and Locations of Material Images;

and so on, makes completion of the web report on the modelling process far easier.
