Departmental Required Course		 ●Planning Objective：
Simulate the scheduling of Shenkeng Old Street Architecture using 4D technology
This course aims to guide students from the Department of Civil Engineering and related disciplines in the fieldwork of surveying and the modeling of BIM (Building Information Modeling) structures, including architectural structures, as well as the application of 3D printing technology. The course is designed to equip students with hands-on skills in managing information and modeling pertaining to architectural structures.
●Curriculum and Instructional Features：
Building a strong base of knowledge, scientific understanding, and technological expertise, while also enhancing productivity in the construction industry.
Students will explore BIM modeling processes and 3D printing applications, using the historic buildings of Shenkeng Old Street as a case study for their modeling work. Through this, students not only acquire professional skills but also gain a deeper appreciation of the features of historical architecture.
●Expected Social Impact:
Integrating BIM design software, Revit, with BIM model management software, Navisworks, in engineering projects to serve as an auxiliary tool for analyzing productivity in future restoration efforts of old streets.
The course centers on the theme of cultural sustainability, involving teachers and students in on-site measurements to digitally preserve and promote culturally significant street houses in Shenkeng. Using Autodesk Revit for modeling and visualization, the architectural forms are documented digitally as a means to preserve and disseminate these cultural assets.

Course learning outcomes:

    The course "BIM Building Structures Virtual Integration Practice," provided by the Department of Civil Engineering and Disaster Prevention, seeks to equip students with essential knowledge of computer-aided design (CAD) and to familiarize them with Building Information Modeling (BIM) across different phases of a building's lifecycle. The course incorporates "Co-create a Sustainable and Resilient Cultural Community in Shenkeng: A Multifaceted Value Enhancement Project" as a central theme for modeling during the first half of the semester. Students acquire knowledge of BIM concepts and modeling techniques through three stages: analyzing historical Taiwanese architectural forms, conducting on-site measurements, and utilizing BIM software for modeling.

    The course, informed by industry professionals, comprises guided tours and on-site measurements of various buildings in Shenkeng Old Street, such as Dingjie Stinky Tofu Shop, Dexingju (Ori Cultural Cafe), Umeshu Story House, Chiayi Pavilion Eatery, Tianlun Teahouse, Guo Jinshan Peanut Candy Store, Good Neighbor Tofu Restaurant, and Shaowei Qilixiang Shop. Students utilized Autodesk Revit to develop 3D models and generate walkthrough animations of historic structures.
