12/01/2009 Stages of Construction Building Permits are required for any new construction and adding to a pre-existing structure or major renovation. Building Codes are rules that set a minimum standard for construction and help to define things like safety, public health, occupancy, etc… Prior to construction the builder needs to research local, state and national building codes.

12/01/2009 Floor Plan Basics A floor plan is a scale drawing that shows the relationship between rooms and other physical features in a building. Typically a floor plan is drawn as if viewing the room/space from above. When drawing a floor plan, the designer should consider: Flow from room to room Exterior features of the building, views, etc… The needs of who will occupy the space [Authors: Please include teacher notes appropriately.] © 2013 International Technology and Engineering Educators Association STEMCenter for Teaching and Learning™ Foundations of Technology © International Technology Education Assoc
