1. What information is typically included on an archi- Site map, project directory, and
tectural cover sheet? building information
2. (T/F) Drawing Sheets are numbered in a logical True
manner which identifies the professional discipline
which created the sheet.
3. (T/F) Symbols for Elevations, Building Sections, and True
Wall Sections include a reference to the location to
those drawings. Typically, the top number or letter
is the image number and the lower number is the
sheet on which the elevation or sections are locat-
ed.
4. (T/F) Plans, Elevations, and Building sections are True
typically drawn at the same scale.
5. If you have two drawings, where Drawing "A" is The geometry in Drawing "A"
drawn at 1/4"=1'-0" (a scale factor of 48) and Draw- will be a smaller size than the
ing "B" is drawn at 1/2"=1'-0" (a scale factor of 24), geometry in Drawing "B"
what are the relative sizes of those drawings?
6. (T/F) In commercial buildings where there is a True
structural grid, the distances between grids is di-
mensioned. These dimensions are anchored to the
structural grid.
7. Why do we have enlarged plan drawings? More information can be con-
veyed in the enlarged plan
drawings.
8. (T/F) Enlarged Floor Plan Drawings are referenced True
in an overall floor plan by drawing a rounded-edged

shape around the enlarged area, and then a refer-
ence call-out is included which identifies the image
letter/number and the sheet on which the enlarged
plan is located.
9. A reflected ceiling plan is a drawing which is "as if Vertical dimensions
you had put a mirror on the floor, and are looking
up at the ceiling." Which of the following (verti-
cal dimensions, ceiling fixtures, ceiling height ref-
erences, suspended ceiling grinds) are typically not
included on a reflected ceiling plan?
10. What kind of dimensions are shown on Building Vertical dimensions
Elevations
11. What powerful software program is used for pro- REVIT
jects which are modeled in 3D?
12. Building Sections are slices through a building. To minimize potential conflict
Typically, in building sections, the wall cavities are with the building's actual struc-
pochéd. Why is that? tural systems
13. (T/F) In wall sections, more information is shown True
than in building sections. That is because the wall
section drawings are typically drawn at a larger
scale. More can be seen, and so more information
is shown.
14. In this project, the enlarged unit plans include a Interior Elevations
symbol which has a rotated square, surrounding a
symbol, and then outside of that square, there are
letters. Those letters are referenced to what?
