Learning to draw to scale, and create accurate floorplans is crucial if you are persuing a career in architecture, construction, or engineering. Floorplanner has graciously allowed us to create an EDU account (and sub-accounts) for students here. Once created, you will be able to follow the directions found on the website to create architectural drawings and floorplans. This is an introduction to this type of drawing, and should not take the place of learning AutoCad or other brand-name architectural software if you continue to work in professional trades or careers. Please review the tutorials listed below, and spend time in class learning to use the basic functions of this program. You should be familiar with how to create walls, doors, windows, and place furniture. You should also be able to render in both 2D and 3D to create images for inclusion in presentations.
