Architectural Drafting

Introduction
  • When early humans began to design structures to
    be built by others, the field of architecture was
    started. The need for reading and interpreting
    construction drawings was developed. Over many
    centuries many graphic languages were developed
    to ensure structures were completed as designed
    by builders.
  • Today we have the ability to use computers to
    provide designs, drawings and walkthrough
    examples of architectural structures that will be
    built.

Architectural Construction Plans
  • Construction plans are understood by
    interpreting both the graphic language and the
    written language. The graphic language is
    composed of pictorial and multiview drawings.
    These drawings are prepared at various scales and
    use graphic architectural symbols to convey
    information relating to size, shape and materials
    specified. The written language is very important
    since construction terms, abbreviations and
    architectural synonyms are used extensively on
    plans to convey the wishes of the designer to the
    builder.
