Building drawings

A set of building drawings should contain enough information so that one can understand all the spatial connections within the scheme as well as the details of its internal layout. It is important to show intended furniture layout in a scheme design as this will help the viewer gain a better understanding of the intended use of the space. The drawings need to collectively describe the whole building as a series of rooms as well as their associated functions.

Scale

These building drawings will be further separated into groups to allow different types of information to be described and further developed. For example, a reflected ceiling plan will describe the layout of the lights and other electrical fittings and their location on the building’s ceiling. Other layouts might describe furniture configurations, the building’s electrical wiring, or its heating and ventilation systems. Each piece of information will be described on a different drawing, to allow clarity and accuracy when designing each of the building’s component systems.
