Looking at good sets of construction drawings is most instructive.   I haven't seen a good detail book in the USA in a long time.

Look at lots of pretty pictures, then sketch how you think those effects were constructed. Start here: https://archinect.com/forum/th...

I still find myself looking at a building and drawing imaginary wall sections in my mind. Kinda pathetic.

No, it’s not pathetic, it’s a wonderful way of experiencing the world! Think about doctors, they look around and see bags of disease and decrepitude in human form everywhere the
y go. We get to look at the world and see structure, ingenuity, gravity, weather, shelter, tradition, so many beautiful things !
