SCO • Students will be expected to: • 2.12 read and interpret floor plans [1.401][1.402][1.403][2.401][2.402]
Why? • The purpose of this outcome is to provide introductory experiences for students, of the range of plans and structural drawings used in the construction trades.
Remember Orthographic Drawings? • There is a relationship between the drawings of a house plan and orthographic projections. • A floor plan is a top view of a building that has been cut horizontally about midway up the wall.
Assignment • Read a foundation plan and determine building size and the location of doors, windows and support columns • Read a floor plan and determine size of each room and location and size of windows and doors and other features
Assignment • Read an elevation drawing and identify the relationship of grade to the foundation and the type of siding and roofing. (You will have to do some research here) • Read a section drawing and determine the actual components that make up the foundation, walls, floors and roof and the heights of structural components
