As a drafter, you are going to face many challenges, and as you go into a school of drafting and design, you might not know the difference between commercial and residential drafting. Is there really a difference that you need to know about? There absolutely is, and we\u2019re going to spend some time addressing it.<\/p>\n

What is Residential Drafting?<\/h2>\n

Residential drafting is a simple concept; you\u2019re creating the blueprint for a house or an apartment. Something important to keep in mind is that you will need to design the residence to meet certain standards of living. For example, it needs to have proper plumbing, etc. You should also take into account that people will be living here, and the environment is susceptible to damage.<\/p>\n

What is Commercial Drafting?<\/h2>\n

In commercial drafting you are creating drafts for commercial buildings<\/a>, to put it as simply as possible. In this case, we\u2019re talking about skyscrapers, office buildings, stores, and essentially anything else you might find in a commercial district. The thing that you need to remember about these buildings is that they are often much more durable than residential buildings, but they are also a bit more complicated. The codes that you will have to adhere to when designing them will obviously be a bit more extensive and it is a true commitment.<\/p>\n

Getting Ready for a Career in Drafting<\/h2>\n

\"draftingAs a part of your drafting education, you are going to learn how to use the latest software. There was a time when all blueprints were drawn by hand, and while it resulted in some utterly amazing architecture, computer software today is much more preferred for two reasons. The first reason is that it is much more accurate. This accuracy results in faster builds, but it also gives us better safety. The second thing that comes from this is the ability to edit the draft.<\/p>\n

When the draft was done on paper it would have been a bit difficult to change certain aspects, and it would become even more ridiculous if you wanted to create an addition to the original project. With computer-aided drafting<\/a>, you can go into the file, make the change, and print out an entirely new paper. In some cases, you might opt to simply send the file to a project manager so that they can view it on a tablet rather than printing it out.<\/p>\n

When you attend ITI Technical College and earn your Associate of Occupational Studies (AOS) degree in Drafting and Design Technology,<\/a> you will acquire many different skills that are presented in easy-to-follow modules. You will work alongside your peers in teams to create drafts and even diagnose potential problems. Our classrooms do an outstanding job of preparing you for the real world by giving you the hands-on experience that you\u2019re going to need. All in all, you will learn to use cutting-edge software and you will learn how building systems work. Most importantly, you are going to learn the vast differences between commercial and residential drafting.<\/p>\n

Are you ready to jump into a brand-new career and completely change your life? If so, then you are ready to jump into ITI Technical College<\/strong>\u2019s programs and see what we have to offer you. Not only do we offer access to cutting-edge software, but we are also able to provide top-notch instructors who have worked in the field and will be able to share their own experiences.
