- In this video lecture I go over a new set of imperial drawings with the emphasis being on understanding how the floor plans and elevation drawings relate to each other with regards to things like door & window locations, heights, and rough opening considerations. Floor levels and ceiling heights, flush arches, hatchings and measurements.

Thank you for another great job. My questions are:
1. On Elevation A-A, does the height of the ceiling start from the FIN. MAIN LEVEL to the U/S OF SOFFIT or from the FIN. TECH. CENTER?
2. Sir, can you make this drawing available for us to print for more personal study?
Professor Tom,Thanks again
Thanks Mark, I hope things are well, keep learning!
Dear sir Tom Stephenson,
Thank you for your great lectures.
I bought your book "Understanding Construction Drawings for housing and Small building" on amazon for my Carpenter and renovation course at Fanshawe college. I really like this book! However, I find that the printed drawings for Doncaster, Whittington, Monarch, Mini Mart and Gas Bar, and Nottingham Community are a bit small for my needs.
I wonder if I can purchase or download PDF files of all those drawings to print them in a larger size (18" x 24")?
Thank you so much!
Hi Huy, send me an email to tomstephensontraining@gmail.com and ill send a link to the drawings
Mr@@TomStephensontraining ! I've sent you an email already. I really appreciate your consideration and support!
Thank you for the video Tom, I am venturing into bidding joint work on multi-family construction. If you have and videos that you feel would help me out, please let me know.
Great! I have a series on construction business management on my playlist if it is your business, as there are cost control and pm playlists on the channel. Good luck on the new venture
Do you provide expansion joints in roads and buildings in canada to resist thermal stress??
yes we do, sidewalks approx 15 feet, with control joints at approx 5' as an example
Thanks professor Stephenson. Please can you help refer a textbook.
Yes check my textbooks online, Amazon sells Understanding construction drawings for housing and small buildings, Tom Stephenson
Where can I get building code of Canada?? Like for testing of strength of concrete,bricks, steel, aggregate, different grades of concrete etc....
Hi Haaris, you can download a free copy of the National Building Code of Canada here:
nrc-publications.canada.ca/eng/search/?q=NRCCode&q=&q=&ps=50&s=dtp&m=1
Just remember provinces like Ontario have their own but great commonality between them (though there are differences).
Gd afternoon thanks
