INTRODUCTION TO BUILDING DRAWING

Building drawing refers to the process of creating graphical representations of buildings, structures, and architectural designs. These drawings typically include floor plans, elevations, sections, and details, providing a visual and technical understanding of the building's design and construction.

The building design process typically involves several stages, starting with conceptualization and ending with construction documentation.

  1. Conceptualization: This stage involves understanding the client's needs, site analysis, and generating design concepts.
  2. Schematic Design: Rough sketches and layouts are developed to explore design options and establish the overall concept.
  3. Design Development: Refining the chosen concept, developing detailed plans, and starting to incorporate structural and mechanical systems.
  4. Construction Documentation: Creating detailed drawings and specifications necessary for construction, including:
  5. Building Plans: Floor plans showing layout, room dimensions, and spatial relationships.
  6. Elevations: Drawings depicting the exterior appearance of the building from different viewpoints.
  7. Electrical and Plumbing Symbols: Incorporating symbols to indicate the location of electrical outlets, switches, plumbing fixtures, etc.
  8. Dimensions: Providing precise measurements for all elements of the building to guide construction.
