About this course
Architectural and civil practices still run on AutoCAD for day-to-day drawings. This programme covers the full drawing set a building project needs: centre-line and wall plans, elevations and sections, site plans with setbacks and area statements, and structural and services working drawings.
You will draw at full scale with annotative text and dimensions, build a library of dynamic door, window and furniture blocks, and use external references so architects, structural engineers and services consultants can work on the same project without overwriting each other.
What you'll be able to do
Draw complete plansLay out walls, openings, stairs, toilets and furniture with correct clearances.
Project elevations & sectionsDerive accurate elevations and sections with levels and material hatches.
Prepare submission drawingsProduce site plans, area statements and authority-style sheets.
Detail structure & servicesDraw RCC reinforcement details and electrical / plumbing layouts.

Frequently asked questions
Yes. The software is the same but the standards, drawing types and projects are specific to buildings — plans, sections, site and structural details.
Absolutely. Understanding plans, sections and drawing sets makes BIM in Revit far easier to learn.
Yes — live classes with a real trainer, not recordings. You'll need a computer that can run the software, decent internet, and a headset or speakers with a mic so you can ask questions.
Yes. Our placement team helps every eligible student — 100% placement assistance. That means resume and portfolio reviews, mock tests and interviews, and introductions to companies that are hiring.
