difficult to tell which parts of these sheets are made by the architect oNLY and which parts are made by the engineer ONLY im an owner builder trying to make the entire framing roofing foundation siding and MEP all by myself (small home under 1k sqft) i want to hire the engineer for structural integrity and to help me figure out where my nails and screws or lumber types should be so i can not only pass inspections but not have to overbuild and waste money/time BUT i want to do the parts of the plans myself that normally an architect would be doing so i can save money and feel more proud of the home I NEED TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE IN PLANS BETWEEN ARCHITECT AND ENGINEER
Thanks for your feedback. The purpose of this video was to provide a “level 1” crash course for reading and understanding these types of drawings. That’s why I cut literal snippets of different conditions. Roughly 80% of these details are architectural, 20% are structural. The architect wants to show the assembly of materials, flashing & waterproofing, insulation, critical dimensions such as overhangs, etc. The structural engineer will call out specific sizes of the framing elements, rebar sizing and spacing, specs for hangers, hardware & connections. As you may know, the architectural details will exist in the “A” sheet series, where structural will be in the “S” sheet series. It’s easier to separate them when viewing a full set of drawings. Hope this helps clarify for now
VERY INTERESTING WORK!!!! THANKS FOR SHARED
Thanks for watching !
Could you please provide pdf of this drawing?
For legal purposes I cannot.

@@architect_talk wow I had no idea the ratio of plans was so architectural or that everything is labeled with the letters "A" and "S"
THANK YOU
