TECHNICAL DRAWING

Technical drawing under building technology refers to the precise and detailed graphical representation of buildings and construction elements. It is a fundamental tool used in architecture, engineering, and construction to communicate design, dimensions, materials, and construction methods clearly and accurately.

Key Features of Technical Drawing in Building Technology:

  1. Accuracy and Scale: Drawings are made to scale, meaning every element is drawn in proportion to its actual size.

  2. Standard Symbols and Conventions: It uses standardized symbols (e.g., for doors, windows, electrical outlets) to ensure clarity and universal understanding.

  3. Types of Technical Drawings:

    • Architectural Drawings: Floor plans, elevations, sections, etc.

    • Structural Drawings: Show beams, columns, foundations, etc.

    • Electrical Drawings: Layout of wiring, switches, lights.

    • Plumbing Drawings: Water supply and drainage systems.

    • Mechanical Drawings: HVAC and other mechanical systems.

  4. Purpose:

    • Guides construction professionals during building.

    • Communicates design intent from architect/engineer to contractor.

    • Ensures legal compliance and safety standards.

    • Assists in cost estimation and project planning.

  5. Tools Used:

    • Traditionally: T-squares, compasses, drawing boards.

    • Today: Computer-Aided Design (CAD) software like AutoCAD, Revit, ArchiCAD.
