Drawing the Elevation You will develop your elevation drawing through correspondence with the plan(s) and/or section(s). Choose the main elevation of the building. There are two ways that you can set up your construction layout: 1. Follow Francis Ching’s method of arranging orthographic views (pp. 137– 142). Place your plan above your blank sheet of paper (upon which you will be drawing the elevation), and your section(s) to the side of the elevation drawing area. Draw corresponding lines vertically down from the plan to derive widths of windows, doors, etc. in your elevation; draw corresponding lines horizontally across from your sections to derive heights.

Drawing the Elevation
You will develop your elevation drawing through correspondence with the plan(s)
and/or section(s). Choose the main elevation of the building. There are two ways
that you can set up your construction layout:
1. Follow Francis Ching’s method of arranging orthographic views (pp. 137–
142). Place your plan above your blank sheet of paper (upon which you will
be drawing the elevation), and your section(s) to the side of the elevation
drawing area. Draw corresponding lines vertically down from the plan to
derive widths of windows, doors, etc. in your elevation; draw corresponding
lines horizontally across from your sections to derive heights.
2. When drawing the longitudinal elevation, you can directly underlay the
longitudinal section, similar to how you underlaid the plan to create your
section. Make sure that you are facing the same direction when viewing the
elevation as you are when viewing the section. (If you are drawing the
elevation in the opposite direction, you can still use your section drawing as
an underlay but flip it around to be “backwards.”)
Again, begin the elevation drawing with construction lines. Note any regulating
lines, grids, proportions, or modules that seem to be defining the façade—window
and door heights and widths, window sills, changes in planes. How are structural
elements in the plan and section reflected in the elevation? Once all major edges,
planes, and openings are defined in your drawing, decide on the level of detail you
should bring to the drawing (review the Ching reading, pp.165–166). Details to
consider include: window and doorframe thicknesses and trims, material finishes

and differentiation, joint lines of a material or between materials, etc.
Ground line should also be shown in an elevation drawing. Do not assume that the
ground line in your elevation is the same as that of your section. An elevation is a
section cut as well, but just outside of the building. Check in plan where the
elevation “cut” line occurs and the ground plane in that position.
Scan your completed drawings and submit by posting into the Project Assignment
topic. Make sure your scan is of sufficiently high resolution and contrast as to be
able to capture your construction lines as well as your final lines, and that the
drawing is legible, and not pixelating when zooming in.
Purpose
To understand how to read and convey architectural information about a
building through plan, section and elevation drawings
To utilize the architectural drawing conventions of plan, elevation, and
section to analyze and accurately and conceptually communicate a
building’s form and design
Tools
Lead Pencil
Trace Paper
Vellum Paper
T-Square or Mayline
Architectural Scale
Triangle(s)
Compass (as may be needed)
French Curves (as may be needed)
For this project, your instructor will provide a list of case studies from which you
will derive one project on which to focus.
