Fundamentals of Architecture
This project explains the fundamentals of architecture. Architecture is the study of buildings. Since we humans do not have fur, feathers, or shells for protection from the elements, we have needed buildings as shelter for thousands of years. Buildings contain our living and working spaces and the places where we congregate and interact in small or large groups such as markets, churches, arenas, transportation hubs, schools, and hospitals.

Reviews
This is an excellent project. However, the materials for each lesson are not in the correct file folders. I wasted time hunting down the correct project files. (Example: For Lesson 0 the datafiles contained rvt files for walls, not the needed ProjectStds_Exercise02.rvt. When I finally found the file the name did not match.
Hi Karen,
Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. We have resolved the issue by giving each downloadable asset a unique name to prevent overlaps between modules with assets of the same name.
looks great !!
