Looking for tips on building a model out of these floor drawings...

Hi all, first time caller here looking for tips on building a model out of these floor drawings:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/5r1aviolggemymt/0%20floor.png?dl=0
https://www.dropbox.com/s/luhfouh9aw36ti4/1%20floor.png?dl=0
https://www.dropbox.com/s/qdnb5k1lnv7wtnr/2%20floor.png?dl=0

Don't have dimensions for the inner hallways, etc and the outer walls, just the rooms themselves. Thx!!!

The maid's room is smaller than your toilets...
Maybe you should think again!

Ha, well that's Nepal for ya. But I did not design this plan, I just want to build the model. However, I did figure out how to do the base floor, but not sure how to replicate floors 1 and 2, as I don't see an option to import a background per layer. There must be a trick to this :)

If you have the ground floor plan imported, you have the most important one. Simply copy all walls to the second level, and they will fit perfectly on the walls underneath. Adapt the walls according to necessity, load-bearing walls will always be continuous.

Moreover, the quality of the images of your floor plans is so bad, that all lines become fuzzy when enlarged to scale, so you won't be capable of accurately scaling them.

Thx hansmex, I did as you suggested and all is well. Upon import, there was some sort of scale calibrator that I used on a 4' wall, and now all the measurements seem pretty close. Cheers, jigs
