Exterior
Elevations show the front, rear and sides of the house, including exterior
materials, details and measurements.
Foundation Plans include drawings for a full, daylight or partial basement.
Some of our plans are drawn with a crawlspace, but we do not offer plans
with pole foundation. All necessary notations and dimensions are included.
Foundation options will vary for each plan. If the home you want does
not have the type of foundation you desire, one may be developed for
you by contacting our office.
Detailed
Floor Plans show the placement of the interior walls and the dimensions
for rooms, doors, windows, stairways, etc., of each level of the house.
Cross Sections show details of the house as though it were cut in slices
from the roof to the foundation. The cross sections specify the home's
construction, insulation, flooring and roofing details. Most of our
Cross
Sections are common sections of that particular style of house. If the
house is complex a Cross Section or other form of detail will be included
to help explain how parts of that house will fit together.
Interior
Elevations We do not offer interior elevations of the kitchen or baths
because you can get these drawings for free through a local kitchen
and bath store in 3D and perspective views. On a custom bases we can
offer interior views of any room in the house at an additional cost.
Roof
Details show slope, pitch and location of dormers, gables and other
roof elements, including skylights. These details may be shown on the
elevation sheet or on a separate diagram. Note: If trusses are used,
we suggest using a local truss manufacturer to design your trusses
to comply with your local codes and regulations. If Rafters are
used we
suggest using your local lumber company. Most lumber companies employ
structural engineers who can figure out the proper spans and loads
for
this type of roof system.
Material
List We do not include material lists with our drawings. Your local
lumber company can provide you a complete material list for free when
you purchase your lumber through them.
