Overview

In this course, you’ll use AutoCAD to build title block drawings from the ground up and draft detailed residential documents, including floor plans, enlarged views, roof plans, and building elevations for a moderately complex single-story home. You'll gain practical CAD workflow experience, learning AutoCAD commands, interface navigation, and project-based processes. The course focuses on 2D drafting techniques used in construction documentation, such as dimensioning, layout configuration, layer management, and plotting procedures.

  • Design title blocks and drawing labels used by professional offices to generate complete sheet sets.
  • Draft comprehensive floor plans, roof plans, enlarged views, and elevations for a mid-level residential structure, including annotation and detailing.
  • Integrate external references while demonstrating layer control, model/layout usage, and multi-scale presentation.
  • Structure final sheet sets in compliance with National CAD Standards to ensure industry-ready documentation.
  • Apply intermediate AutoCAD techniques to create accurate layouts and configure plotting for deliverables.
