About the Book

ARCHITECTURAL DRAFTING AND DESIGN, International Edition is an ideal book for all architectural drafters and CAD operators, whether beginning, intermediate, or advanced. An important feature of this best--seller is its step--by--step instructions for the design and layout of each type of drawing associated with a complete set of architectural plans, with projects that can be completed using either CAD or manual drawing methods. The basics of residential design, commercial drafting, basic materials used for construction, common construction methods, and drawings typically associated with commercial construction are all covered in this comprehensive book, which is written to meet the most recent editions of IRC and IBC. Readers will be introduced to the various types of projects that a designer or architect is likely to complete during the actual design process and will gain the knowledge needed to complete the drawings required by most municipalities to obtain a building permit for a single--family residence.
