Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Architectural drawing is a special kind of drawing in which an architect lay out the future projects on paper. When you draw a building on paper it’s a 3D-represenattion. Since the architectural drawing requires showing the inner view, outer view, top views, etc. The project is accomplished as per the architectural drawing only. Therefore the architectural drawing requires a special kind of scale. Lots of graphics, symbols and projections are used in architectural drawing.
Advantages of architectural drawing:
The architectural drawing showcases the actual concept of any building/bridge/road or any project on paper. The drawing helps effectively communicate the idea. Once you have a design on paper only then it can be represented anywhere for business proposal or to sign a contract or for the record.
Significant element of architectural drawing:
Since the architectural drawing showcases the actual concept of any building/bridge/road or any project on paper. Therefore, to accomplish this task, the designer needs some special elements in drawing for effective representation on the paper. The special elements of architectural drawings includes site plan, section or part wise plan of the project, elevation, details of each elements, Isometric and axonometric projections, top view, inner view, outer view, etc.
Kinds of Architectural Drawing-
Survey Drawings- These are used to showcase the existing land dimensions, its area, the level of the projectsites, soundings, and any other exiting construction that can create problem in smooth execution of work on the site.- Presentation Drawing- These are an illustration of design ideas to visualize the actual design.This drawing may include real life scenarios.
- Working Drawing- The working diagram is the actual diagramwhich are used for the actual execution of work.
Other names for a set of architectural drawings are technical drawings and structural drawing.
