This assures its readability. See Figure 28 for an example. To anchor the angled walls as a unique location, they should be measured along both an x and a y axis as in a grid Figure This way allows construction people to lay out angled walls easily.
Perpendicular dimensions to the angled walls may be added to give better dimension information. Dimensioning an angled wall Figure An example of dimensioning an angled wall along an x and a y axis. To do this, three components should be included: actual curvature, location of center point of the curve, and extent of the curve.
The actual curvature is denoted as radius of the curve, which emanates from the center point for the curve. The center point of the curve should be also dimensioned by locating it along x and y axis to anchor the point. The extent of the curve which may be only part of a full circle or half circle should be measured by giving location information on the each end of the curve related to other objects on the drawing.
For exterior wall dimension, dimension each wall location from the outside of stud face to the outside of stud face. For interior wall dimension, dimension each wall location from the outside of stud face to the center of the wall, and from the center of the wall to the center of another interior wall. For overall dimension, dimension overall wall locations from the outside of stud face to outside of stud face.
Dimension interior walls to structural elements including columns or existing walls. Dimension stairways. For wall dimension, dimension each wall location to the outside of faces. But when pilasters or concrete columns are placed, dimension them to their centerline.
For overall dimension, dimension overall wall locations from the outside of faces. It provides complimentary information of vertical elements that a plan view cannot describe such as heights of interior elements; vertical materials; and other important vertical information that cannot be shown in other drawings. If an entire building elevation is needed for an irregularly shaped building or object, a distortion on an elevation drawing is necessary Figure Typical interior elevations show vertical locations of doors, windows, and other openings; profiles of objects; connection to the floor, ceiling, and adjacent objects; material information; and vertical dimensions.
Drawing an elevation drawing for a building Figure Separate elevation drawings are required for different in an irregular shape will distort the view. Figure37 Distortion is necessary when an entire building elevation is needed for a building in a irregular shape.
Figure38 A typical interior elevation drawing with material representation Figure39 Adding people on interior elevation drawings gives a relative sense of object heights Check list for interior elevation drawings.
Border and title block 2. Title and scale of the drawing in the title block 3. Drawing number in the title block 4. All doors, windows, and frames with proper elevation symbols. All vertical components of the space for all items shown on the plan view including appliances, equipment, and artworks.
Title and scale of the elevation under the plan view. Notation 1. Draw cross-reference symbols such as section or detail symbols Figure Call out appliances and equipment including refrigerator, dishwasher, clothes washer, dryer, microwave oven, and other similar items.
Call out small items such as medicine cabinet, grab bars, towel dispensers, mirrors, base board, molding, and chair rail. Show proper symbolic representation for each material.
Call out finish materials. BASE Figure Section and detail symbols shown on an elevation drawing Dimension A. Interior Elevation 1. Dimension heights of vertical elements including cabinetry, countertop, soffit, molding, wall panel, railing, grab bar, etc.
Dimension heights of doors, windows, and wall openings from the finished floor lines to the tops of these objects. Dimension from finished floor lines to finished ceiling lines. Remember that interior elevations are mainly intended to show vertical heights of walls and other components related to them including doors, windows, millwork, and other important elements.
Horizontal dimensions on interior elevations are to show additional information on spaces and elements that are not shown on the floor plan. But it is better not to repeat dimensions in both places, since it increases likelihood of making errors when one drawing or the other is revised.
Exterior Elevation Label the important levels including the bottom of the footing, grade, finished floor line, finished ceiling line, and roof line with the elevation datum symbol. There are two methods to label these vertical dimensions in exterior elevation drawings. One is using a vertical dimension line with horizontal lines that extend out from features lettered parallel to it. Each extension indicates what the feature is with a note on it such as top plate, finished floor, etc Figure The other is giving the elevation height of each feature from the elevation established for the finished grade of the soil around the building.
In this case, elevation datum symbol is associated with each extension line to indicate each elevation height Figure Vertical distances in exterior elevations typically start above the elevation of the bottom of the footing. Dimensioning exterior elevations 1 Figure Sections of spaces in interior drawings are sometimes confused with interior elevations and details. Section drawings for spaces may illustrate similar items as elevation drawings.
But section drawings are different from elevation drawings in that they are primarily intended to show the construction of the wall, floor, ceiling, or the object being cut through.
Sections aim to show relationships of how different parts are constructed together in a space rather than the items attached to walls.
So, a section drawing also presents the construction elements that create the boundaries of spaces, while as an elevation drawing focuses on the characteristics of the surfaces of the boundaries represented as single lines on the drawing. When a cut-through line is very close to the objects, not inside the objects, it usually gets to illustrate vertical shapes as shown on elevation drawings, causing confusion between a section and elevation.
Figure 43 Concept of section drawings When sections are cut through small portions of a space or object, they are often referred to as section details or details. However, a section drawing is different from these drawings in that a section drawing typically refers to a drawing that cuts through a single space, many spaces on a single floor, or an entire building. Detail drawings are not always drawn in section and may include an enlarged drawing of the floor plan or elevation See Figure 47 Interior Detail Drawings.
A section of an entire building. It illustrates the relationship between the entrance, stairs, and upper loft of the building. A section of a built-in cabinet. Check list for section drawings. For a section of an interior space, it may be similar to a combination of a building section and an interior elevation. Emphasize on rather the interior aspects of the construction details such as cabinetwork, wall panels, dropped soffits, or suspended ceilings rather than structural details.
Show items drawn on the floor plan including furniture, cabinetry, appliances, equipment, etc. Dimensions, usually only vertical dimensions. Draw cross-reference symbols such detail symbols. Call out appliances and equipment including refrigerator, dishwasher, clothes washer, dryer, microwave oven, plumbing fixtures, and other similar items.
Call out small items such as medicine cabinet, grab bars, towel dispensers, mirrors, base boards, moldings, chair rails, etc. Specify substitute construction materials. Dimension 1. Dimension important levels such as footing, grade, finished floor lines, finished ceiling lines, top plate, or ridge of the roof in the outside of the section.
Dimension heights of vertical elements of doors, windows, and wall openings either in the outside or inside of the section. Dimension any built-in features or any elements that need to show construction details. Dimension clearances, and alignment. As on interior elevations, sections are primarily concerned with vertical heights, too. Indicate horizontal dimensions only for things that are not informed on the floor plan.
They are intended to accurately show materials and finish application. Detail drawings are not always drawn in section and may include an enlarged drawing of the floor plan or elevation Figure Section details provide information on the location and construction of different parts, the relationships of these parts to the surroundings, and the juncture of materials. Details are referenced from plan, elevation, and section drawings.
Detail drawings with an enlarged plan drawing of part of the ceiling SCHEDULES Interior design drawings contain huge amounts of information that is needed for other people involved in the project such as consultants, contractors, and builders. But all the information needed is hard to be illustrated effectively on the actual drawings.
Some information is best communicated in the form of specifications, and other information in schedules. A schedule refers to a tabular form with rows and columns of data to effectively organize information.

I have used arrows to indicate that the doors slide open - but what direction really should I be pointing the arrows assuming the doors are shown as closed in elevation?
Thanks, -STU Solved! Message 2 of Message 3 of Option B, because the arrows show the direction the doors will slide to open. Paul wrote in message news discussion. Thanks, -STU. Message 4 of Option B? What happens? Do the doors slide past each other? Option A shows the direction the doors will slide to open.
IMO, this is correct. Drawing convention for depicting doors in elevation assumes doors are closed. Therefore, arrows should indicate which direction the door s will move as it they open s. Steve: Your own experience should not preclude others from showing sliding doors in elevation.
Not redundant IMO. This shows everything on top of the building including the roof layout, stair bulkheads, parapets, and potentially roof equipment. A Reflected Ceiling Plan is a plan of the ceiling within a space. This is drawn looking down as if there is a mirror on the floor reflecting the ceiling. The reflected ceiling plan is often referred to as an RCP. This architectural drawing will show things light lighting, structure, ceiling heights, soffits, etc…. When I was in my first semester of architecture school the RCP was the hardest drawing for me to understand but it makes perfect sense once you get it.
A plan perspective is a drawing of a plan but shown in perspective. This is more of a design drawing meant to show what the space is going to look like and less how the space will be built. Elevation drawings are a specific type of drawing architects use to illustrate a building or portion of a building. An Elevation is drawn from a vertical plane looking straight on to a building facade or interior surface.
This is as if you directly in front of a building and looked straight at it. Elevations are a common design drawing and technical architectural or engineering convention for graphic representation of architecture. Elevation drawings are orthographic projections. Section drawings are a specific type of drawing architects use to illustrate a building or portion of a building. A section is drawn from a vertical plane slicing through a building. This is as if you cut through a space vertically and stood directly in front looking straight at it.
Sections are a common design drawing and technical architectural or engineering convention for graphic representation of architecture.
