Construction tradespersons need to understand and apply the information
given on blueprints with a minimum of error and a maximum of speed.
To do so they must be able to mentally visualize, in three dimensions,
the orthographic information presented on those blueprints. In addition
to tradespersons, Blueprint Reading for the Construction Trades,
2nd Edition.
Blueprint Reading for the Construction
Trades, 2nd Edition is written to help develop these important
visualization skills and takes the reader through basic sketching
exercises, reading scale rules, understanding orthographic drawings,
and visualizing in three-dimensions through isometric, oblique,
and perspective drawings. A fold-out commercial drawing set teaches
the importance of construction sections. Finally, readers are
guided through a fold-out drawing set of a solar residence to
practice their visualization skills by understanding the shape,
size, dimensions, and details of the residence. A twenty question
test evaluates the reader's ability to fully visualize the building's
details.

to developing visualization skills.
