Course Description

FrameCAD Workshop 2 is a project-based continuation of Workshop 1 that develops intermediate level production skills needed to produce steel panel framing systems using FrameCAD software and a FrameCAD F325iT machine. Students will review FrameCAD machine operation and safety and be involved in running production jobs and learning about panel assembly and fabrication workflow on the machine. NOT DEGREE APPLICABLE. Not Transferable. ADVISORY: ARCH A004N and ARCH A041N.

Course Level Student Learning Outcome(s)

1. Completers will be able to perform intermediate level maintenance duties on the machine.
2. Completers will demonstrate intermediate level skills in producing steel frame panel projects on a FrameCADmachine in a safe manner.

Course Objectives

• 1. Apply intermediate level of understanding of steel frame and panelization design and production.
• 2. Operate a FrameCAD machine and produce a structure using FrameCAD Factory software.
• 3. Modify a file in FrameCAD Structure and FrameCAD Detailer.
• 4. Design and produce a stick design on the FrameCAD machine.
• 5. Redesign and recode a project in FrameCAD Detailer and export to FrameCAD Factory.
• 6. Perform intermediate level of machine operation and maintenance on a FrameCAD machine and decoiler.
• 7. Safely product a FrameCAD project, assemble the frames, and connect the panels.
• 8. Safely use the hoist to assist in loading steel coil.
