Architectural Detailing: A Teaching Methodology

Cheng, X. / Schierle, G. G.

Architectural detailing is primarily left to experience in professional practice rather than formal education. This paper presents a methodology to teach students and young architects architectural detailing, demonstrated on case studies of point-supported glass (PSG) walls. Glass walls present some of the most complex detailing challenges with potential flaws, ranging from assembly problems to leaks. Yet the complexity presents an opportunity to address flaws. The methodology is based on rules and steps, considering: assembly, installation, tolerance, functionality, and aesthetics.
