TITLE BLOCK
List the types of information found in the title block on the floor plan page.
- Is there a grid? What system is used for identifying the grid lines?
- project
Yes, there is a grid. It has letters for horizontal line and numbers for vertical lines.
-drawing no. Building name -scale -company name and address - date print -tracer
- Why is some information found in General Notes? All these information should be noticed,so that real building can be identified by this map.
-
- What is the purpose of the legend?
Why might this information be important?
Tell us about what mean of different drawings on the map. What do they represent.
Basic information is proved. These information shows all relative things about this map. 2
- Why are some parts of the drawing annotated? Illustrate how the annotations are associated with the relevant part of the drawing.
DRAWING CONTENT - PLANS
- What type of information is shown in this floor plan? - grid - dimension -locations of rooms -locations of windows and doors -what type of door or window is used -materials
It assists us to know what is going on of this part. - Illustrate how the locations of sections are identified on the plan. What do these symbols mean
- Provide an example of the dimensions as they appear on this floor plan? What units are used for the dimensions? unit:mm
?
This kind of symbol shows which grid does this part belong to . So the location can be identified.
- Illustrate how references to other drawings are shown on the plan. What do these symbols mean?
- What type of information is shown in this elevation? How does it differ from the information shown on the plan? -dimension -location of outside doors and windows
the relative drawings should have same kind of this symbol.
-whole structure of building -
- How are windows and doors identified? Provide and example of each. Is there a rationale to their numbering? What do these numbers mean? Can you find the answer somewhere in the drawings?
- Are dimensions shown? If so, how do they differ from the dimensions on the plan? Provide an example of the dimensions as they relate to the elevation. Yes, it proves scale - 1:100, dimension on the map can be determined, then real dimension can be obtained.
DG means door, number indicates the type of the door, it can be found at drawing references.
- What types of levels are shown on the elevations? Illustrate how levels are shown in relation to the elevation.
WG means window, number indicates type of the window, it can be found at drawing references as well.
- Illustrate how floor levels are noted on the plan? it shows at the corner of the map. they draw at the end edge of each floor. - Are some areas of the drawing clouded? Why? Yes, many areas of the drawing clouded. This means plan for this area has changed.

DRAWING CONTENT – ELEVATIONS
- Is there a grid? If so, how / where is it shown? Yes, it only has horizontal grid, it shows by numbers.
- Is there a legend? What does it identify and how is it used? No. It does have legend for elevation.
Explain what is going on here.
- What types of information on the elevations are expressed using words? Illustrate how this is done. Yes, some materials’ information are proved.
- Illustrate where this elevation is located in relation to the plan? Identify the locations for same windows, so the location relation to the plan can be obtained.
- Illustrate how the doors and windows are identified on the elevations. 4
DRAWING CONTENT – SECTIONS
- What type of information is shown in this section? How does it differ from the information shown on the plan and elevation? - Beams and poles are shown DG means door, number indicates the type of the door, it can be found at drawing references.
-more details about building materials -location of basement and how it supports upper levels
- Are any parts of the elevation clouded? Why?
Yes。
- Are dimensions shown? If so, how do they differ from the dimensions on the elevation? No. ( not sure. Scale is proved, so determine by using ruler, times scale. Real dimension can be worked out)
- What types of information on the sections are expressed using words? Illustrate how this is done. - Provide examples of how different materials are shown on the sections. Material
-Concrete - Steel frame
- Find where this section is located on the plans. Section between 1 and 2
- Illustrate how the section drawing differentiates between building elements that are cut through and those that are shown in elevation (beyond).

DRAWING CONTENT – DETAILS
- What sorts of things are detailed? -Foundation system -Floor system -windows and doors -Materials
- Are the details compressed using break lines? Why?
No.
- Provide examples of how different materials are shown on drawings at this scale.
This indicates concrete floor.
- Find the locations of these details on the plans, elevations and sections. Have same symbols on all three kind of drawing.
