What you're talking about is technical drawing. It's a vanishing art . . . or rather, it's a dwindling technique, because it isn't really art at all. It's all migrated to the digital environment, now.
It isn't actually easy to do in Photoshop, or not correctly. It is easy to do in AutoCad, Sketchup, and a host of other CAD platforms. Manually, it's mathematical. You use scale, meaning that, for instance, you draw a .25" line on your paper for every 1' of real measurement. You can find some common scales here.
You can't do precise work freehand. To implement scale correctly, you'll need the tools of the trade; a drafting table, straight-edges, scales (a special sort of ruler) compasses, etc, Wikipedia has a nice article on these tools. And here's a more pragmatic Amazon link to get you started, as well as a collection of YouTube tutorials.
I work full time in Sketchup, by the way, and apply my drafting training (from shop class way back in 80's era junior high) all the time. Unlike other CAD programs, the tools are designed to be intuitive to folks who understand this kind of technical drawing. It's also free, so if you feel like moving off paper and into the digital realm once you've got the hang of it, knock yourself out.
