DETAIL DRAWINGS Enlarged drawings which focus only on selected portions of a structure to show in greater detail those parts of the constructions are known as DETAIL DRAWINGS. Detail drawings are usually prepared al scale 1:20 meters. However, other scales may be used, the main consideration being that the details can be clearly shown and easily understood even by the layman. To reveal how certain building parts are assembled, dimensions to be followed and kinds of ‘materials to be used, etc., any or a combination of these methods of presentation may be employed: a. PLAN or TOP VIEW b. ELEVATIONS. c. SECTIONS d. ISOMETRIC or PERSPECTIVE DRAWING DETAILS AND SCHEDULES OF DOORS AND WINDOWS, In the sample floor plans of a two-storey residence shown in Fig A-3, there is a mark placed near every door and window symbol. These marks are used for identifying each door and window which is more fully described in the Specifications, or in the SCHEDULE OF DOORS AND WINDOWS, or drawn in the DETAILS OF DOORS AND WINDOWS. SAMPLE WORKING DRAWINGS AND SPECIFICATIONS Presented on the, following pages are the working drawings of a Two-Storey Residence, To show the building features in greater detail, the drawings have been prepared bigger in relation to the size of the drawing sheets used. For example, in Plan Sheet No. A-2/12, only the two floor, plans are accommodated. However, in actual practice using 508mm x 762mm (20" x 30") drawing sheets, even the 4 elevation drawings of the project could possibly be included at the scale indicated These plans are considered complete as to the basic architectural, structural and plumbing Fequirements in applying for the building, electrical and sanitary permits or real estate loan. The other requirements such as the bill of materials, specifications and structural design computations should also be prepared The electrical plans containing the lighting and power layouts, load computations, riser diagram, specifications, etc., should be prepared, signed and dry-sealed by @ licensed Professional Electrical Engineer or Master Electrician The plumbing plans should be signed, sealed by a licensed Sanitary Engineer or Master Plumber. The drawings pertaining to architectural and structural requirements of the building can be signed and dry-sealed by a licensed Architect and Civil Engineer. respectively Other drawings like the details of windows and doors, cabinetsiclosets, etc. should also be included in the working drawings to provide complete information for the proper execution of the construction and the accurate computation of the bill of materials, After the working drawings, a set of sample Specifications follows, A.9 ESTIMATING BILL OF MATERIALS - Tagayun
