This self-paced advanced course focuses on creating accurate, professional construction documentation using AutoCAD. Building on core drafting skills, you’ll develop detailed drawings that support clear communication across architecture, engineering, and construction workflows, with an emphasis on consistent layouts, annotation, and project organization.
Through guided, project-based lessons, you’ll draft elevations, wall sections, and site-specific drawings for a complex residential project, integrate external references, and manage layers, viewports, and scales. The course also covers advanced drafting techniques, plotting setup, and formatting deliverables to align with widely accepted architectural and engineering drawing standards.
