Hello everyone. I'm Jessy Kang,
professor from the Department of Civil Engineering at National Taiwan University.
Today, I'm very pleased to announce that CAD/BIM specialization is officially available.
My research area includes visualization.
And I have been teaching Engineering Graphics in
National Taiwan University for more than 10 years.
So, I put all this the efforts and analogy
together to work with a group of talented young people,
and I finally produce these two courses,
3D CAD fundamental and 3D CAD application.
The first course, 3D CAD fundamental,
is designed for complete novices for 3D modeling.
I prepare many small but four for examples.
You can learn many skills from practicing the examples.
The second course, 3D CAD application, is more advanced.
It includes step by step instructions to develop a complete five story building model.
You will learn how an engineer develops a building model in details.
After the two courses,
you will obtain all the necessary skills of 3D modeling.
And then, you will be ready to move on to the following BIM courses.
Hello everyone. I'm Shang-Hsien Patrick Hshieh,
Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering at the National Taiwan University.
My assistant and I have put a lot of effort to
plan and design these BIM fundamental and BIM application classes.
In the BIM fundamental class,
you learn the essential theoretical concept of BIM and
the basic technical skill for creating and manipulating a BIM model.
The skills include how to retrieve information
from a BIM model and how to use common modeling tools.
This is a very crucial part in BIM learning because
a well-created BIM model is necessarily for successful BIM applications.
In the class, we will use Autodesk Revit as
our modeling software because of its availability and popularity.
In the BIM application class,
you will learn how to extend the fundamental knowledge in learning
to popular BIM applications,
including clash detection, quantity takeoff, and 4D simulation.
Also, you will be asked to construct a simple BIM model In
order for you to get familiar with
the modeling tools and apply the model in learning BIM applications.
Lastly, I believe the specialization courses such as these,
from fundamental theory to detailed projects,
will let everyone master the skills and more importantly,
apply this in the real world.
Do you want to master 3D modeling?
Do you want to use professional joint to pour your ideas?
Do you want to learn the most advanced BIM skills
and become an in demand professional in engineering?
We can't wait to present these precious classes to you.
Welcome to Coursera, we are waiting for you.
