About this Workshop
Join this 4-part series, designed to provide you with the foundational knowledge and ‘hands on’ classroom experience to help get you started in understanding construction design documents.
This blueprint reading series is developed to instruct each student in the basic understanding of construction blueprints and specifications. Every construction professional, whether working in the field or in the office, must know how to read plans. Although not overly complicated, beginning to read blueprints does require a basic understanding, practice, and general knowledge of industry standards used to communicate project design.
Workshop Outcomes:
- An introductory and foundational knowledge of blueprint reading as it relates to building construction projects.
- Hands-on practice and understanding of reading blueprints and specifications manuals.
- Be able to locate both general and specific trade information using blueprints and specifications.
- Be able to answer basic construction questions related to design intent, project layout, and the installation of materials at the jobsite.
- Be able to locate, identify, and understand project-specific aspects within the design documents.
