In the past, home design and drafting were largely based on traditional knowledge, experience, and personal preferences rather than formalized safety guidelines. Early home construction relied heavily on regional building practices, which often lacked standardization. Many houses were built without thorough planning, leading to safety hazards such as unstable foundations, improper load distribution, poor ventilation, and inadequate fire prevention measures. Without professional drafting tools and regulatory oversight, builders often overlooked critical elements like structural integrity, fire resistance, and electrical safety. As a result, homeowners faced frequent issues such as collapsing roofs, water leakage, electrical fires, and even structural failures. These problems highlighted the need for formalized building standards that prioritize safety and durability.
