Goal: Students will understand the difference between conceptual/schematic design drawings and construction drawings. House construction projects - ground floor, walls with rough openings and material list due this Friday. Roof construction begins Monday.
Today we finalized 1/32 models, watched a time lapse video of a home construction and discussed our next group project: designing a 1500 square foot ranch.

We looked at an existing residential project drawing set today in order to practice reading and interpreting architectural scaled drawings. We are finishing up site plans of your homes and lasercutting 1/32" = 1'-0" scale models. Remember to photograph front, back, right and left elevations of your buildings. Sketch your floor plans of your house and include dimensions. We begin preparing your residential floor plans in AutoCAD this week.
