No two homes are alike and while there are common elements there are no absolutes and as such all homes may not have the same components or construction details. To understand if a home is properly constructed you must learn to read and understand blueprints.  Blueprint reading is not difficult, but it does require practice and some basic knowledge of blueprints.
