Learning outcome- 4.1 To be able to Define Elevation 4.2 To be able to State the necessity of elevation. 4.3 To be able to Explain different Side (North, South, East, West) Elevation. 4.4 To be able to Explain Angular elevation. 4.5 To be able to Explain Special Type of elevation.
4.1 Define Elevation. At its core, an elevation is a scaled, flat representation of one side of a building or structure. It provides a comprehensive view of the exterior fa ade, highlighting key architectural features, such as doors, windows, materials, and proportions.
4.2 State the necessity of elevation 4.3 To be able to Explain different Side (North, South, East, West) Elevation. Design Visualization: Elevations allow architects and designers to visualize their ideas in a tangible form. They provide a clear picture of how a building will look from different angles, aiding in the refinement of design concepts.
4.4 To be able to Explain Angular elevation. The angle of elevation is the angle between the horizontal line and the line of sight which is above the horizontal line. It is formed when an observer looks upwards. Suppose you are standing at the terrace of a building and looking upwards at the sky or at the sun or moon.
There are several types of elevations, including front, rear, side, and interior elevations. These elevation drawings offer different perspectives and details depending on the building's architectural design.
Next lesson: Ch-5:SECTION 5.1 Define Section. 5.2 State the necessity of section. 5.3 Explain different section (longitudinal/long, cross section. 5.4 Explain transverse section (section)
