The Drawing Construction Details course will teach students the process of developing descriptive drawings that illustrate how individual building parts and materials are connected. This aspect of construction documentation is a critical component to providing accuracy and precision when communicating a particular construction method. Detail Drawings highlight the sequence and fastening process that result in building assemblies. Through these drawings, students will demonstrate knowledge on how buildings are constructed with coordination and specificity.
