Print: A copy of a construction drawing
Architectural symbol: A symbolic representation of a building element used on drawings showing its placement in relationship to other elements in the structure.
Section view: A portion of the set of construction plans that shows a section or cut through of the structure. (Imagine how a five-layer cake looks when you slice it. You see the outer frosting, but also each layer and the frosting between the layers.)
Detail view: This view shows a detail of the plan that has been magnified for closer inspection of its construction elements. This aids the contractor in knowing the specific details the architect wished to include in the construction of the structure.
Floor plan: his type of plan view shows the location of walls, windows, doors, fixtures and placement of various systems in a structure. It is drawn from an overhead or bird’s eye view as though the roof had been removed so you could look down into the structure.
Elevations: A 2-D drawing of a wall from floor to ceiling in a structure. It will include structural elements such as doors and windows. It may also show fixtures in a bathroom and built-in components such as cabinetry.
T-square: T-shaped ruler used in mechanical drawings to create horizontal lines.
Architectural triangle These tools are pre-calibrated at specific angles to aid the designer in creating accurate drawings.
