1. ARCHITECTURAL DRAFTING -Types of Views- -Basic House Construction- Prepared by: Ms. Payne Adjunct Instructor

2. Floor plan – sliced about 4’ above floor

3. Elevations. Front, side and rear views (North-South-East-West) Variety of lineweights can be used for more beautiful drawings. This type might use grayscale.ctb plot setting for shading variations.

4. Plan + Section

5. An Elevation is in front of the object; a Section slices THROUGH it

6. Section Cut Symbol – has a direction, and gives cross reference to the sheet it’s on

7. An Elevation is in front of the object; a Section slices THROUGH it

8. Varying line weights for clarity Section Drawings

9. VIDEO http://www.manufacturinget.org/tag/orthographic-projection/ PLANS (‘TOP VIEW’) SECTION (‘vertical’ CUT) ELEVATION (SIDE VIEW)

10. If you don’t use a book, at least TAKE NOTES. Hardly anyone can remember it all Also remember you can use the Ribbon to hover over a tool for brief description Orthographic views

11. Elevation Drawings (side, front, rear views) are a type of Parallel Projection Drawing. Unlike a Perspective, measurements are “true”

12. Typical Drawing Order 1.Cover Sheet – Code Notes 2.Site Plan 3.Floor Plan(s) 4.Reflected Ceiling Plan(s) 5.Building Sections 6.Elevations 7.Wall Sections 8.Details 9.Interior Elevations & Details, Tile pattern enlarged plans, etc. 10.Structural (Foundation & Framing Plans, Details) 11.Mechanical (HVAC, Plumbing) 12.Electrical/Lighting

13. Elevation drawings AutoCAD drawing using “Color + Lwt by Object.ctb” plot

14. Combined color CAD + jpgs or use Adobe Illustrator to color a B&W CAD dwf.

15. Wood Framed House Construction Truss Roof Stud walls Sheathing = plywood or OSB sheets

17. Foundations Foundation walls similar to the system in Draft 224 Project, show in-ground concrete piers below the floors and the perimeter concrete stem wall. The footing is buried. The next step is to lay wood joists across the concrete stem walls, with some posts sitting on the concrete piers also supporting wood beams. They leave this space below the joists as a crawl space in case someday someone needs to repair plumbing below the floor. In this one you can also see some other concrete slabs for the garage and porch, which we don’t have in the Draft 224 house.

18. Roof Trusses. Notice the crane to life them in place! Wood Stud Framing with OSB sheathing (Oriented Strand Board, used in place of plywood for most walls) ‘Flashing’ around window openings Typical U.S. Light Construction:

19. Roof Trusses Almost all mass produced residential and light commercial buildings in the US use prefabricated wood trusses to span the roof. These are trucked in and lifted in place. They are made up of mostly 2x4’s fastened together. The walls are 2x6 wood studswith OSBsheathing.

20. Section cut perpendicular through trusses and joists (DRAFT 224 Class assignment cuts facing them)
