Pamphlets Used to Earn this Badge
Requirements January 2009 until January 2010
1. Tour your community and list the different building types you see. Try to identify buildings that can be associated with a specific period of history. Make a sketch of the buildings you most admire.
2. Arrange to meet with an architect. Ask to see the architect’s office and to talk about the following:
(a) Careers in architecture
(b) Educational requirements
(c) Tools and architect uses
(d) Processes involved in a building project
3. Arrange to visit a construction project with the project’s architect. Ask to see the construction drawings so that you can compare how the project is drawn on paper to how it is actually built. Notice the different building materials. Find out how they are to be used, why they were selected, and what determines how they are being put together.
Note: This requirement necessitates advance planning and permission from your parents, your counselor, and the manager of the construction site. While on site, you must closely follow the safety procedures of the construction site, including wearing a hard hat.
4. Interview the owner or occupant of a home or other building (your “client”). Find out what your client’s requirements would be for designing a new home or business facility. Write down all of your client’s requirements that you think would affect the layout or design of the new facility.
5. Measure your bedroom. Make an accurately scaled drawing of the floor plan indicating wall, door, windows, and furniture. Neatly label your drawing including your name and the date. (Drawing scale: ¼ inch = 1 foot)
