Question 1

To a scale of 1:50, draw a detailed section A – A of the building from the foundation to the roof.

     

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Observation

Many candidates were able to:

  • lay the strip foundations at the specified depth below ground level;
  • position the doors in elevation;
  • produce well annotated drawings of the timber roof members.

 

However, some of them failed to show graphically:

  • the earth and the hardcore filling underneath the floor slab;
  • plastering/rendering on both sides of walls in section;
  • windows (at the verandahs) in section;
  • the locations of ring beams; columns and lintel.

The detailed section A – A of the building from foundation to roof is as shown on the next page.
