House Plan Drafting 101

THE ONLINE ARCHITECTURAL DRAFTING CLASS

Welcome to House Plan Drafting 101. The Architectural Drafting Classroom on the Internet. If you're 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 drawing the "Drawing Two Story Home" which includes more complex Sectional Details, 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.

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 Sign Up confirmation. Click here to enroll.

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.

For those who 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)

*NEW* Click on the TECH SUPPORT button above and ask whatever question you may have on the board without having to register. The new section is called "Public Questions".
