Technology has significantly impacted the field of architecture. Early humans used basic tools and materials like mud, stone, and wood to construct shelters. Advances like using mud bricks, building ziggurats and temples, and innovations in materials and construction by Mesopotamians, Greeks, and Romans improved architectural styles. In the industrial era, new building types emerged like factories and train stations. Modern architecture utilizes building information modeling, 3D modeling software, presentation tools, and collaboration platforms to design, visualize, and communicate projects digitally. Current technologies continue enhancing the architectural design process.

1. IMPACTS OF TECHNOLOGY IN
ARCHITECTURE

2. ARCHITECTURE
 "Architecture" can mean:
The art and science of designing
buildings and non-building structures.
The style of design and method of
construction of buildings and other
physical structures.

3. TECHNOLOGY
Technology is the collection of techniques,
skills, methods and processes used in the
production of goods or services.
The human species' use of technology began
with the conversion of natural resources into
simple tools.

4. Utilizing mud-brick to construct
houses and villages.
In rocky places he used stone, in
forest areas he built with wood
and where neither was available,
he used mud.

5. Mud-brick buildings and the construction of Ziggurats and
religious temples.
They made lumps of clay into bricks to build a wall.
2)Mesopotamian architecture
3)Roman & Greek architecture
Inventions like arch, concrete gave a whole new form to this
period’s architecture.
Noted for the domes and amphitheatres.

7. Skeleton framing, which reappeared as a principle of building technique,
which we find today in the practice of modern architecture.
Though not contributing to any new system of construction, it was a
period of variation and improvement upon past performances.
Factory buildings, warehouses and railway stations, requiring large spaces
to be enclosed, had to be constructed, for the industrial revolution.

11. IT inARCHITECTURE
1)Business Functions
•for sending images, messages and files because collaboration between the
design team, engineer and construction manager.
2)Presentation Preparation
•for creation of image boards, brochures, formal reports, slideshows and other
multimedia messages.
3)Construction Documents
•Blueprints, originally drawn by hand, have largely been replaced by computer-
generated construction documents.

12. 4) 3-D Models
•architects can illustrate either segments or entire
projects for the client by creating a virtual 3-D model
on the computer.
5) Increased Information
•Computer generated designs allow the architects to
know more information about the building projects
without having to work out long and complex
problems.
