Lot 50

Habitat for Humanity - Lot 50

Habitat for Humanity came to my college looking for a couple of new designs for their housing projects. I was given dimensions for the project. I was required to look up the zoning code and also the building codes for the lot I was to build on. Because this was an undefined property, I looked for a lot that would be similar to what was needed. Then I used Xref to insert an aerial photograph of the site. This gave me a reference point on which to start work on.

The house was required to be ADA compliant. Starting with the Line and Offset tools I began to make my house. To make sure my building was within the requirements I put dimensions on it. This helped me to make adjustments. I created new layers when needed. This project has a full set of construction documents. The sheets include mechanical, plumbing, electrical--with handmade blocks, mechanical, kitchen cabinets and roof layout.

Note: The image was made using Autodesk Revit. Please excuse the roof, it is different from the construction documents.
