Meet the Author

Dan graduated from the University of Cincinnati DAAP program with a Bachelor in Architecture. In his early career he worked for both architects and structural engineers producing large commercial construction documents including field inspection on several projects. Dan also worked for general contractors as a senior estimator and project manager on many multi-million dollar commercial and high rise projects. Later Dan worked for the number one concrete construction company in the United States, Baker Concrete.

While at Baker, Dan performed many roles:  estimator, local and national sales manager for industrial concrete construction as well as one of the founding members of Baker University (Baker’s internal training). During that time, Dan Baker shared that the company loses money every year because co-workers struggle reading constrcution prints. Thus, Dan searched for a textbook to teach construction print reading and chose Print Reading for Construction by Walter Brown. With Walter’s retirement from education, Dan became the new author.  To date, he has completed 4 revisions of the textbook turning it into the #1 textbook for Print Reading in the United States and Canada.

Dan looks forward to helping those who choose this program to become more proficient in the art of reading prints.

"Print Reading for Construction textbook and Video training Series was excellent to learn from. The material and thorough explanation of each item made it easier to understand as Dan explained it. This has helped me read blueprints much easier in the workplace. Soon I will be taking my ICC exam and I am now more confident on picking up a set of drawings. The value that you get for the cost is priceless. If you care about your future you should consider investing in getting this training series. If you put the time in, you will NOT regret it. It is important to pick up the book as well for more exercise and activities. I even took another class online which helped somewhat but not as in-depth as Dan’s. Now after working 15 years in the construction industry I can point someone in the right direction."

"The Print Reading textbook's key strengths are the organization of the material and the many accompanying print reading activities. The logical progression of the topics from the basics to more advanced topics makes it ideal for classroom instruction or self-study. The prints are not merely supplementary illustrations but integral to the learning experience."

“We have been using the Corporate Subscription for the Print Reading for Construction book and Videos as a training tool for Team Members at McClone Construction who have not had any past experience reading prints.  It has provided to all of them a solid foundation to reading construction plans and helped many of them take the next steps in their careers.  We are grateful to have this resource and would highly recommend it to others.”

“I have been using this Print Reading textbook along with the Video Training Series to train my new hires in the art of reading construction drawings. We sell construction supplies, and this helps them when visiting jobsite and working with project managers.  It allows my team to add value by reading the drawings to do take offs for material quotes.  The textbook with the videos makes it easy to study at your own pace. The videos are high quality and easy to follow. Highly recommend!”

"Really enjoying your book. I am currently in the process of obtaining my contractors B License & this book has been very resourceful to me, the teachings on this book and the practice questions have really helped me get a better understanding on missing dimensions or how to calculate stair risers given height of ceilings. Unit 2 construction math and application was helpful to me."
