After this course

What you'll be able to do yourself.

A mistake at the desk costs nothing. A mistake on site means demolition. This course teaches a checking order for one sheet, for the whole set and across disciplines, up to making sure the revision numbers agree before anything goes out. You leave with a checklist you can use in the studio right away.

  1. 1Check a sheet in passes: title block, dimensions, wording and codes.
  2. 2Find numbers that disagree between plans, sections, elevations and schedules.
  3. 3Find clashes between architecture, structure and MEP before they reach site.
  4. 4Make sure clouds, deltas, the revision table, the title block and the sheet list agree.
  5. 5Build a firm checklist that keeps growing from real mistakes.

Good for

  • Drafters who already draw and want fewer sheets coming back.
  • Young architects starting to check juniors' drawings.
  • Drawing coordinators preparing tender or construction issues.

Slide the value. The drawing follows, just like in the lessons.

The membrane ends above ponding level. A common rule of thumb: at least 150 to 200 mm above the roof finish.

    I used the revision check section at the office that same week.

    Drafter, 2 years in a studio

    In my first week at work I was too embarrassed to ask about symbols. This course closed that gap in two weekends.

    Architecture graduate

    Reading a full drawing set changed how I check sheets. Now I start from the drawing list, not the plan.
