Glossary: Joist: To support horizontal structural element. Bearer: Supported by ledgers as a load supporting structural member. Girder: It’s a beam made by steel, wood, or rein forced concrete, aim to main horizontal support in a building or bridge. Concrete plank: made by concrete to support elements. Spacing: It’s the distance between similar elements measured line to contreline.(figure 1 )

Learning Loop: Span: ·Span is the distance measured between two structural supports. ·span can be measured between vertical supports (for a horizontal member)or between horizontal supports (for a vertical member ). ·Span is not necessarily the same length of a member Spacing: ·Spacing is the repeating distance between a series of lie or Similar elements. ·Spacing is often associated with supporting elements(such as beams columns etc) and can be measured horizontally or vertically ·Spacing is generally measure center-line to center-ling Floor and Framing systems ·Concrete system: Slab of various types are used to spam between structural supports. These can be one-way or two -way spans ·Steel systems: It takes various forms depend on their structural function. It sometimes combine with concrete slab systems to where particular benefits of steel framing and shallow depth floor slab systems are desired. ·Timber systems: Common in Australia. Traditional timber Systems use a combination of beams and joints. Concrete ·Hydration: when cement powder and water are mixed a chemical reaction takes place and heat is released. ·PRE-CAST concrete: It is any concrete element that has been fabricated in a controlled environment and then transported to site for installation

·IN SITU CONCRETE: Is any concrete element that has been poured onto formwork and cured on the building site. It is placing any required reinforcement , the pouring, vibration and the curing of the concrete. Cantilever: ·It is created when a structural element is supported at only one end( or the overhanging portions of a member are significant). ·The function of it is to carry loads along the length of the meber and transfer these loads to the Support


Studio activity: 1. Title block List the types of information found in the title block on the floor plan page. ·Scale ·General legend ·Partition legend ·Engineer and designs ·Project details ·Internal finishes

2. Drawing content plans Firstly, to find the information of the floor plan and provide an example of the dimension. Secondly, find the systems that is used to identify the gird lines and the purpose of the legend. Thirdly , find the drawing annotated parts and illustrate how the annotations are associated with the relevant part. Next, to find how the drawings show the reference in the plans and the meaning of the symbols. What’s more, we need to know how floor levels are noted on the plan and the areas of the drawing clouded.

3. Drawing content elevations Find the information in the elevation and the difference compared to the information in the plan. Show the types of levels on the elevations and illustrate how levels are shown in relation to the Elevation. 4. Drawing content sections Find the type of information is shown in section and illustrate how the section drawing different from building elements that are cut through. Besides, find the different materials that are shown On the sections and find where section is on the plans


5. Drawing content-Details To find what are the detail things and how details are compressed using break lines. Find the Location of these details on the plans, elevations and sections. Questionnaire:
