Im in the progress of planning a complete home improvement, where all the interiors is pulled down, floors torn up, and only the shell is intact, before rebuilding everything.
But in the designing process i miss the ease of a drawing tool as autocad that we used in school as an mason apprentice.
So home improvement people, what is a good alternative to autocad, for detailed blueprints and measurements?
Indeed, Freecad is 3D, which is more suited for “let’s design a crank and gear system” than “let’s re-design a kitchen”, but not sure how you would use autocad to do so.
Normally autocad is used to make top down floorplans, with measurements for almost everything, so that you can build what is drawn, with horizontal detail drawings of those things that require detail drawings of how its constructed, from the bottom of the foundations, to the top of the roofs.
In other words, a drawn detailed description of the job as a whole.
Wow… my final exam assignment is still online: https://bygud.praxis.dk/course/view.php?id=16 Its in danish, but you can see the blueprints im talking about.
