THE TUITION HAS BEEN REDUCED TO $10.00

Welcome to House Plan Drafting 101. The Architectural Drafting Classroom on the Internet. Interested in learning to draw house plans? You've come to the right place. When you complete this course, you'll have the knowledge to draw  the Floor Plan, Elevations, Foundation, Roof Plan, & Details for the "Ranch Style Home". The Next Step is the "Drawing Two Story Home" including the Electrical and Dimensions. These two styles are the basis for most houses built in the United States today.

H.P.D. 101 is staffed by a fully trained Drafter and Home Designer. My name is Tim Davis and this is what I do for a living.  From this web site, I'll lead you through a simplified & well planned course in drawing house plans. The easiest way to take these lessons is using a CAD (Computer Aided Drafting) program.

This course is a great way to get ahead of the rest of the class if you're presently studying architecture. It's also a wonderful resource if you want to draw your own house plans.

As a bonus in your learning experience, I've included actual CAD drawings of homes and structures in DXF format and Architectural Details to study and alter in any way you want.

There's no problem if you want to use a drafting board for the lessons! The only difference being, you will need to mail copies of your drawing to me so we may check your progress. Click here for a shopping list of those things needed for taking this course on the Drafting Board. Better yet, if you are into woodworking, click here to download a free Drafting Board Construction Plan. (24" x 36" paper at 1" = 4" scale)

How the Class Works

We'll be using the Internet as our chalkboard & textbook. In the Lesson Plans, you'll find a summary of what we'll be learning. These lessons are accessed from the protected directories of our site and you may take as much time as you wish to complete each one. You will be issued a Username & Password once we receive your tuition.

SPRING SPECIAL ~ The Single Story course is inexpensive and only costs $10.00 and the Two Story course is also $10.00. If you want to take both, the cost is $15.00, a $5.00 savings. With your tuition you'll receive all Lessons offered, Tech Support, & all the Symbols used in the lessons. As an extra Bonus you will also receive access to the Cad Drawing Archive which contains many homes we have drawn in the past in CAD format & 5 sheets packed full of Architectural Details in CAD format. Studying other types of construction and designs will aid you greatly in understanding architecture and would most definitely speed up your comprehension of the lessons.
