Floor plan sectional drawing examples.
As an architect i study drawing closely but these are complicated and quite.
Dimensions are usually drawn between the walls to specify room sizes and wall lengths.
If there are a number of sections the line may have letters at each end indicating the name of the section drawing and an arrow showing the direction that the view takes.
For example if i have a floor plan at 1 4 1 0 scale of a house i might have a callout of the kitchen and bathrooms showing them at 1 2 1 0 scale.
The elevation view is the view from one side of the object.
Plan section elevation drawings.
The direction of the plane through which the section is cut is often represented on plan drawings and elevations by a line of long and short dashes called a section plane.
A floor plan is the most fundamental architectural diagram a view from above showing the arrangement of spaces in building in the same way as a map but showing the arrangement at a particular level of a building technically it is a horizontal section cut through a building conventionally at four feet one metre and twenty centimetres above floor level showing walls windows.
2 21 is an example of this type of drawing showing the plan view four elevation views and the bottom view.
Each one of these views shows two of the principle.
In architecture and building engineering a floor plan is a drawing to scale showing a view from above of the relationships between rooms spaces traffic patterns and other physical features at one level of a structure.
