Floor
plans: Overall dimensions and room sizes are shown. Walls are sometimes
filled (very dark) for visibility. All rooms must be identified to avoid
ambiguity. Furniture and equipment, patios, parking areas and landscaping close
to the building should be shown.
-
Elevations:
One or more elevations may be drawn but the front elevation is a must. To
indicate scale, conventionalized human figures are placed close to the
building. Also, shrubs, trees (most times transparent) are indicated for
realism i.e. to explain the form. Conventional shadows are drawn in.
-
Vertical
sections: When a cross section through a building is shown, only important
dimensions are indicated.
-
Perspective:
Exterior and interior perspectives are usually drawn of the important features
of the building and sometimes of the entire project (aerial perspective). The
perspective is usually approximate, rather than projected (real/true/accurate).
-
Life:
The drawings have a relatively short life as they are seldom seen by the
building contractor. It is from these drawings that production or working
drawings are prepared with such modifications as may be necessary.
