Foundation to DPC, intermediate timber floor with joist hangers, pitched roof at rafter level (warm vs cold roof explained), and warm flat roof with parapet. Each detail is drawn layer-by-layer in 2D, then modelled in 3D—the ultimate understanding of what you’re actually drawing. By the end, you’ll sheet them up properly and issue professional documentation.
This course covers four junctions you’ll encounter constantly in residential work: foundation to DPC level, intermediate timber floor, pitched roof at rafter level, and warm flat roof with parapet. Each detail is drawn in 2D (the principles work in any package—AutoCAD, MicroStation, Vectorworks) then modelled in 3D so you truly understand the construction. Along the way you’ll learn about line weights, brick coursing, joist spacing for acoustics, warm vs cold roofs, U-value calculations, and how to use element keys to streamline your labelling. The final lessons cover sheeting up details properly for issue.
