E01 Conventional Signs
AIM: To know the conventional signs used for various building materials
Theory: Building material is any material which is used for construction purposes. Many
naturally occurring substances, such as clay, rocks, sand, tiles, bricks, glass, wood etc., have
been used to construct buildings. Apart from naturally occurring materials, many man-made
products are in use, some more and some less synthetic. The use of these materials is
typically segmented into specific specialty trades, such as carpentry, insulation, plumbing,
and roofing work. They provide the make-up of habitats and structures including homes. To
avoid greater confusion in drawing each material is given a specific sign which is followed
by all the engineers.

E02 Plan, Section and Elevation of Doors and Windows
Aim: To generate plan, section and elevation of door and window
Theory: A door is a framework of wood, steel, aluminium, glass, low cost materials or a
combination of these materials, the purpose of door is to provide access to the inside of a
building or rooms of a building. A door basically consists of two parts, a door frame and door
shutter. Door frame is used to hold a door in position. The door shutter is and of two vertical
members called styles and two or three horizontal members between styles called rails. The
enclosed space between rails is called panel
Windows are provided for light and ventilation in the building. The frame of the window is
made of two vertical members called posts provided in between two horizontal members, the
upper horizontal member called as head and while lower one is called as sill. The window
shutter consists of vertical members called styles and horizontal members called rails in
between them.

E03 English and Flemish Bonds, King Post and Queen Post Trusses
Aim:
To learn about various brick bonds those are widely used.
To know the detailing of King post and queen post trusses.
Theory:
Brick Bonds:
There are various types of bonds in brick works such as Header Bond, Stretcher Bond,
English Bond, Flemish Bond.
Header bond consists of headers only. Alternate courses commence with a pair of ¾ brick
bats to break the vertical joint. It is adopted for curved walls as the header face can easily
take the curvature. The wall is one brick thick.
Stretcher bond consists of only stretchers. Alternate courses commence with a half brick bat
to break the vertical joint and create 100mm of overlap. It is adopted for partition walls of
half a brick thick.
English bond is the most common bond. A horizontal layer of bricks or stones is a course.
One course of headers and one course of stretchers are laid alternatively. In brick masonry
with modular bricks, thickness of a course will generally be equal to 100mm. A queen closer
is placed after the first header in the header course to eliminate continuous vertical joints in
successive courses. The width and length of queen closer are 50mm and 200 mm
respectively.
In stretcher bond, each course comprised of alternate headers and stretchers. Every alternate
course starts with a header at the corner (Quoin header). Queen closers are placed next to the
quoin header in order to break the continuity of the vertical joint. Each header is centrally
supported over the stretcher below it.

E04 Plan, Section and Elevation of a Single Storied Residential Building
Aim: To generate plan, section and elevation of a single storied residential building with the
knowledge of building bye laws from the given line plan and specifications.
2. The position of beams, sunshades, portico, ventilators which are above the sill level of
windows are shown with dotted or broken lines.
Line diagram: Line diagram is a sketch generally not drawn to a particular scale also known
as line sketch. The relative positions of all the elements like living / drawing, bed room, guest
room, kitchen, dining, toilets, verandas, position of doors, windows, openings etc. are clearly
shown with their sizes or dimensions.
The dimensions shown in a line diagram are inside to inside dimensions. From the given
specifications, the thickness of wall in super structure shall be taken to draw the fully
dimensioned plan to a convenient scale.
Section: Section means vertical section. It is imagined that a finished building is cut
vertically along a line so that the building is separated into two portions along the imagined
vertical plane right from top of the building to the lowest part of the foundation. The view
that can be seen while travelling along this imaginary vertical plane when looking towards
left is drawn
17
to the same scale as that adopted for the plan and this view is called as sectional elevation, cross
section or simply section.
Thus it is necessary to draw a line on the plan to indicate the sectional line. Then the building is
imagined as cut into two portions along this line vertically. These section lines are named as A –
B or x – x. If it is indicated by A B, it means the view shall be drawn while travelling from A to B
and looking towards left of the line. When the sectional line is named as x – x; then arrow heads
shall be marked to indicate the way in which the sectional view is to be drawn. In some cases an
off – set is given to indicate the necessary details, but the offset in only to shift the vertical plane
from one position to another position (as shown below).
The necessity of the section is to indicate all vertical dimensions like, details of foundation viz;
width and depth of C.C bed; masonry footings, basement, details of flooring, thickness of flooring,
sub floor, sand or gravel depth in the basement, height of super structure, sizes of doors, windows,
almairahs, cupboards, other openings, thickness of roofing, width and depth of parapet wall,
lintels, sunshades, portico and such other details. All these details are very much required to work
out the quantities of all items of works and to execute the process of construction.
Elevation: Elevation is the outward view of a completed building along any side of the building.
When a building is seen by standing in front of it, the view that can be viewed is known as front
elevation. Similarly, building can be viewed from back side is known as rear elevation, or from
any side of it which is known as side elevation.
18
Development of Plan: The plan should be drawn at the bottom portion on left side of the drawing
sheet. To start with, extreme left hand corner of the building should be taken and the thickness of
walls, length of walls along length wise (vertically upward lines) and breath wise (horizontally
from the corner) shall be drawn with light pencil in order to complete in all respects by drawing
cross – wall to show the position of the elements, and to locate the position of doors, windows,
etc.
Finally, the dimensions are shown in each room, width of wall etc. and plan can be obtained by
accurate and sharp pencil lines.
Development of Sections: The section view is drawn on the top right side of the drawing sheet. It
is to be seen that the foundation details will be above the boundaries of the plan. The view shall be
started from starting point of the section line and the horizontal dimensions along the section are
represented in sequence in developing the sectional elevation.
Accordingly, the section of wall from bottom to top, position of doors or windows that are viewed
shall be drawn. From the given specifications, the foundation details, flooring details roofing
details are neatly drawn and such information is to be mentioned in the section. But the different
materials used in the construction shall be indicated by drawing the respective conventional signs.
Development of elevation: The elevation is obtained by projecting the details from the plan
vertically upwards and similarly projecting the details from section horizontally towards left side.
The inter section of these projections from plan and section helps to draw the elevation. Hence the
front elevation shall be exactly above the top of plan and is accommodated in the top left side of
the drawing sheet.
The first projection line shall be from plinth offset. The projections from sunshades, super
structure wall, and to end points for doors, windows shall be made both from plan and section to
show the detailed drawing.
Problem: The line diagram of a residential building is shown in the fig. From the given
specification draw the following views to a scale of 1: 50.
