$29 Home Construction Course
Hello BP,
I was taking some continuing education classes for my insurance license and I noticed Kaplan Education (search Kaplan Insurance Continuing Education) has a class that will take you through constructing a house, from foundation to finish. Very informative, teaches nomenclature etc.
Here is the info:
Residential Construction Basics, 3rd Edition
Total Credit Hours: 7.5
Skill Level: Basic
This fully illustrated course shows how a home is built, beginning with the foundation and following with each step until the structure is complete. Students learn construction nomenclature and the latest residential construction techniques. It includes a brief refresher course in estimating math.
I remember seeing BP members like myself look for ways to understand construction without throwing down huge amounts of money for classes or time for volunteering.
Hope this helps you on your journey!
