BREAKING NEWS: This house design project came a couple days before Christmas from our B2B client for whom all the home plan online pic sheets to follow were done:
The county has the permit submittal right now. My expediter said that the permit inspector said that in his 12 years on the job he had never seen so complete a set of plans as you prepared. Kudos to the Autocad Granddad and Mrs. AG.

This is a B2B house design project arrangement with a home builder about as careful and conservative as AG. He does home sketching of the home addition ideas in home plans pics to form floor plans; then .jpgs the existing home; we talk it over about what's to be done; and he cuts us loose knowing that if we need to know more, then he'll be there to help. He reviews and approves all the work.
In this house design project, the job of bringing home plan set life to home addition ideas started as a porch and garage plan set. Once it got really clear that the modular builders could not get it right for several reasons, the AG was asked to pick up the pieces and do the whole addition - garage addition, porch addition, deck addition, and 2nd floor addition.
These 17 sheets represent the full house design project plan set prepared for this particular builder, based on his home addition ideas developed with his owner-client. Toward latter stages, we worked with an exceptional, in-state P.E. on matters of a tricky ledger or two and truss roof design (in the last analysis done by others).
Note well certain characteristics throughout this home plans online presentation of home addition ideas:
---Reference to home additions are inclusive of porch addition, deck addition, garage addition, and second floor addition
---Lots of text. A trademark of ours. Some text explains, some describes, some directs.
---Keys and Legends on a per-sheet basis. Few things get the old goat's old goat faster than a sheet smeared all over with abbreviations and symbols and no key to know what they are there for. Now most often, you can reckon it sooner or later. But home design and home building were never intended as parlor games.
---Dimensions and annotations on separate sheets (when things would have gotten cluttered up otherwise). The last the AG needs is confusion on the job site.
---Electrical plans separate from the floor plans, with the floor plans as grayed background. The AG likes the electrical plans standalone, and not smooshed onto the floor plans which already are packed with info.
