This book is dedicated to our families, to students of architecture, and to the memory of Richard Linde, Jakob Wakita, and Baido (Giichi) and Nobue Wakita.

The purpose of this book is to teach techniques; attitudes; computeraided drafting (CAD); building information modeling (BIM) and Revit, the computer program that makes it possible, as well as the fundamental concepts of architectural working drawings. With the introduction of BIM and Revit, the profession has changed radically, as has the education of architectural drafters.
