Reflection
From these assignment, I was able to dentify the types of materials used in building designs. I can figure out the properties,advantages and disadvantages of materials and team up well with others. I also learnt how to identify the various types of building materials (finishes and structural) and understand the effects of building materials on aesthetics and structural qualities of a space or building. Lastly, I learnt to create presentation board by using photoshop and produce in digital form.
