    Terms Encountered in Sketching Elevations:

    Cross section - also simply called a Section,


    represents a vertical plane cut through the
    object.
    Eave - the lower portion of a roof which
    extends beyond the wall.
    Pitch - is the term applied to the amount of
    roof slope. It is found by dividing the heights
    of the span.

    Things to be Considered in Drafting Elevations:
    For Preliminary Sketches:
    1. Proportion – which deals with the size and shape of
    areas and their relation to one another.
    2. Fenestration – deals with the arrangements of windows
    and doors in a wall.
    3. Harmony – refers to all features that should harmonize
    to present a uniform elevation.
    4. Shadows refer to a simple elevation, which can become
    interesting when designed to take advantage
    of shadows.

    Things to be Considered in Drafting
    Elevations:
    For Finished Sketches:
    1. Window and Door Size – must be chosen from a
    manufacturers catalog which offers great variety of sizes.
    However, it must conform with the size and style of the
    house.
    2. Window and Door are drawn to scale using the simplest
    feature.
    3. Material Representation – may be shown by drawing only
    a few lines, like bricks.
    3rd Quarter
    Things to be Considered in Drafting Elevations:
    For Finished Sketches:
    4. Footings and Walls hidden lines are used to indicate the
    location of footings.
    5. Labeling of the views can be done in two methods: views
    as in front, rear, left and right-side elevations
    6. Dimensions on elevations are limited to vertical dimensions
    are shown on the plan.
    7. Changes if any, are necessary after all the other drawings
    have been completed.
