            Description

            Start at the very beginning in this blueprint reading and construction estimating course with drawing scale lessons that are thorough and detailed. During this online blueprint reading course, you will discover how blueprint drawings are organized and how information is referenced throughout a set of construction blueprint drawings. Your estimating training will also help you understand how to review architectural and engineering blueprint drawings and project specifications.

            By course completion, you will understand the interrelationship between the construction drawings and a quantity-takeoff cost estimate, analyze the components of a cost estimate, and learn how a quantity-takeoff cost estimate is created. Furthermore, you will master an understanding of quantity surveying, estimating takeoffs, and pricing estimated quantities and recognize the need for thoroughness and attention to detail when preparing cost estimates.

            Learning Outcomes

            What you will learn:
            • Demonstrate an understanding of the inter-relationship between the drawings included in a set of construction documents
            • Evaluate the similarities between all sets of blueprint construction documents submitted for building permits
            • Gain experience understanding how 3D model presentations within a set of construction documents makes the construction documents easier to understand the project
            • Analyze the components of a construction cost estimate and learn how a quantity-takeoff cost estimate is created
            • Master an understanding of quantity surveying, estimating takeoffs, and pricing estimated quantities
            How you will benefit:
            • Develop skills needed to read and understand construction documents on both residential and commercial projects
            • Gain an understanding of the relationship between construction documents, the quantity takeoff, and the construction process
            • Obtain an understanding of important terminology and jargon used in the construction industry
