Online Home Addition Floor Plans Sheet 2, in PDF
Home improvement designing has not been a major part of BTA's business. BTA's approach to any home design including a home improvement house design is rigorous, disciplined, extensive, and usually beyond a the budget of otherwise potential clients. Additionally, homeowner-drawn as-is sheets can be majorly misleading.
This home addition house design project example of a home addition plans online was recently designed and drawn for a home addition to existing. Home designing and home drawing started out with a very sketchy sketch and a few early-evening photographs. This house addition design project draw of example home floor plans is the sixth in a developmental series.
The addition in this home additions plans drawing indicates two stories: L1 – 2-car garage, storage room, tack room, and exercise room; L2 – master bedroom, master bath, 2nd bedroom, and deck. The L2 hall opens to the main floor of the existing.
In this house addition design project, there are several features of interest herewith to this online home addition plans sheet and others of Before The Architect home floor plan examples —
---The somewhat narrow return on L1's garage corner requires framing reinforcement.
---The existing foundation and abutting wall structure may prove unreliable for joining to the addition, and must be reviewed by a qualified engineer before home building begins.
---The master bath commode is ingeniously tucked away, drained and vented.
---There is significant weight concentrated under the zero-clearance fireplace (which can weigh upwards of 600#s .... this one was to have been less), and mud steam shower. These major loads require carefully-considered ceiling framing on L1 and, possibly, grade beams.
---Most of the L2 walls are significantly offset to the L1 walls, arguing further in favor of close attention to L1 ceiling framing plus a truss roof without load-bearing on L2 partitions.
---The extraordinary clearspans over the garage (and under the master bedroom) will move the AG to design the L1 garage ceiling and walls with high-stress wood framing techniques more usually applicable to commercial and industrial applications.
---Note the house plan details of elevation changes, home stair design, schedules, and so forth.
---Note, too, the extensive use of abbreviations to keep the home drawing open and uncluttered.
