  3. Exterior Elevations • Four exterior elevations are shown • Elevations are drawn at the same scale as the floor plan • Labeled as Front, Rear, Right, and Left Side Elevations • Compass directions are often used to label elevations (North, South, East, West Elevations)

  4. Exterior Elevations

  5. Exterior Elevations - Features • Doors and Windows • Roof slope and material • Surface and trim materials • Vertical distances and material notes

  6. Exterior Elevations - Features

  7. Exterior ElevationsConstruction Elements • Project horizontal measurements from floor plan downward onto the developing elevation drawing • Vertical distances are projected from a scaled section • Elevations for working drawings do not include landscaping features

  8. Exterior ElevationsConstruction Elements

  9. Exterior Elevations - Symbols • Windows • Doors • Grade line • Wall finish materials are shown in simple symbols in scattered locations to prevent crowding • Roof features • Materials notes

  12. Exterior ElevationsDimensioning • Vertical distance from floor to ceiling (varies according to client needs) • Vertical distances from floor to tops of windows and doors is usually 6’-8” • Vertical distances to footings (from grade or floors) • Elevations that relate to the site topography • Horizontal distances for roof overhangs • Notes that specify wall and roof finish materials • Roof slope symbols showing rise and run
