Plan HG-2326 (1,296 Sq Ft (36x36) 2 Bed 2 Bath Duplex / Multi-Gen Floor Plan (STC-60 Mirrored Acoustic Party-Wall Duplex)) is an IRC R304/R310-vetted duplex / multi-gen blueprint engineered around a 36'-0" × 36'-0" structural grid (1,296 sq ft base footprint, 1:1 Square-Bay Proportion). Configured on the STC-60 Mirrored Acoustic Party-Wall Duplex topology, this layout delivers 1,296 sq ft of conditioned residential living area and 216 sq ft of covered outdoor porch deck.

Inside the conditioned envelope, the floor plan is organized into 8 distinct architectural zones: UNIT A SUITE (10'-0" × 16'-0", 160 sq ft), UNIT A BATH (8'-0" × 16'-0", 128 sq ft), UNIT A LIVING (10'-0" × 20'-0", 200 sq ft), UNIT A KITCHEN (8'-0" × 20'-0", 160 sq ft), UNIT B BATH (8'-0" × 16'-0", 128 sq ft), UNIT B SUITE (10'-0" × 16'-0", 160 sq ft). Plumbing rough-ins are consolidated across UNIT A BATH, UNIT A KITCHEN, UNIT B BATH, UNIT B KITCHEN to minimize sub-slab trenching and manifold pipe runs. Sleeping quarters (UNIT A SUITE at 160 sq ft; UNIT B SUITE at 160 sq ft) are acoustically buffered from the primary living core and positioned on exterior elevations for code-compliant egress glazing.

From a builder takeoff standpoint, the 36' clear-span width utilizes 2x6 exterior + double-stud insulated acoustic party wall bearing on 144 linear feet of 6" exterior wall framing (~162 framing studs/posts) and 156 linear feet of interior partitions. The 5:12 architectural shingle or standing seam metal hip/gable requires approximately 1,572 sq ft of roofing material (18 roofing squares), while the monolithic concrete slab w/ dual sewer/water stub-outs pours at an estimated 24 cubic yards of 4,000-PSI concrete.

What are the exact room dimensions inside this 1,296 sq ft 2-bedroom layout?

Plan HG-2326 features 8 architecturally solved spaces inside its 36' × 36' footprint: UNIT A SUITE (10'-0" × 16'-0", 160 sq ft), UNIT A BATH (8'-0" × 16'-0", 128 sq ft), UNIT A LIVING (10'-0" × 20'-0", 200 sq ft), UNIT A KITCHEN (8'-0" × 20'-0", 160 sq ft), UNIT B BATH (8'-0" × 16'-0", 128 sq ft), UNIT B SUITE (10'-0" × 16'-0", 160 sq ft), UNIT B KITCHEN (8'-0" × 20'-0", 160 sq ft), UNIT B LIVING (10'-0" × 20'-0", 200 sq ft). Every habitable room meets or exceeds IRC R304 minimum area (70+ sq ft) and minimum horizontal dimension (7'-0"+) requirements.

Can this 36' × 36' floor plan be built with post-frame, red-iron steel, or 2x6 stick framing?

Yes. Because the outer envelope is engineered on an even 36'-0" × 36'-0" structural grid (144 LF perimeter) with clear-span 5:12 trusses, a local structural engineer or building kit supplier can adapt the blueprint for 2x6 Exterior + Double-Stud Insulated Acoustic Party Wall, conventional 2x6 stick framing at 16" o.c., laminated post-frame columns at 8' o.c., or structural insulated panels (SIPs).
