If you're thinking about getting into construction or if you're already in construction you have to know how to read a set of construction drawings/blueprints.
The hardest part about reading construction drawings is every single set is different. Every architect, every engineer has their own style, their own way of referencing the call-outs throughout the drawings. At times it can get frustrating when you have to learn how to read a completely new set of drawings every time you bid/build a new house.
Learning the basics and understanding the symbols the typical details and more can help with the process a lot. In this episode of construction secrets, I give you a brief introduction to reading plans and how they can help you with your construction projects. Leave some comments below on how you navigate through a set of construction drawings.

I appreciate your knowledge, presentation method and plan images... your high energy is a great attribute, but perhaps you could slow down slightly. It is a bit nervous to follow the bouncing of the mouse moving the plan up and down and sideways... Another 3-4 minutes to the excellent video would make it easier to follow without stopping and rewinding constantly.

Do like Bluebeam as a software. I just started to use it

I love Bluebeam. I think its the most versatile construction software for quick mark ups, takes offs, PDF, etc. There are definitely ones capable of more things but, Bluebeam is my choice for sure.

I have a minor suggestion for future videos: either do not have coffee before you start recording, or you can make a list of items to cover and stick to it. This would help the video flow better and allow people to fully absorb what you said. I have been doing this a LONG time, and you had my head spinning a couple of times when what you were saying did not match what we were looking at. With that said, it's an awesome video! Tons of information for those who are looking for more knowledge.

Hey Kaikai- I'm glad you asked. For a while yes, we just got way too busy in our construction company for me to produce/edit all this content. As of last week I started making some videos and will be starting to upload new ones starting next week. Let me know if you you'd like to see any specific type videos. Thanks, David.

You start the video off with construction lingo and terms and then skip over information by saying blah blah blah. How was a beginner supposed to understand any of that. Thank you for making the video but you threw me off with it seconds
