Get Started
Hello again, dear learner! How was your experience in studying and answering the first module
by yourself? I guess it was quite a tough week for you since it’s the first time in educational his-
tory that we have this modular type of learning but I hope you, too have the enthusiasm to ac-
quire the knowledge and skills you need to get from every set of competencies as you get
along with the ‘new normal’ and get each module done week by week. Expect that in every
module you will receive there are different tasks, activities and performances that you will have
to accomplish.
• Project offsets from right, left, and rear sides of floor plan according to architectural
drafting standards.
You will have to prepare sheets of paper for your answers which you have to submit on Mon-
day next week for checking. Please take note also that you will only get the next module in ex-
change for all the outputs you submit for the previous module.
I know that you are excited to learn the new topic. Turn to the next page and move your way
until the end of this lesson. Good luck and happy learning!

Sections
The designer shows the internal construction of a building by means of a section.
Section drawings are prepared for interior details needed to guide construction. Interior eleva- tion
drawing shows builders how to construct and install special features of a home. These features in- clude
closets, cabinets, bathtubs and other special details.
Techniques for preparing interior elevation drawings are the same as for exterior elevations.
Use a floor plan to locate key vertical lines after horizontal dimensions have been indicated.
• Section is a type of drawing which shows the interior or inside of a building or structure.
• Cross section is a type of section where the cutting-plane line is drawn horizontally
• Cutting plane line, a heavy line which shows the exact location where the plan is cut.

Full Sections
Architects prepare drawings that show the building cut in to half to show
the internal structure. This is known as longitudinal section, meaning lengthwise.
When it is cut across, it is called transverse section. It is imagined that a plane is
passed through the building cutting it in half by a cutting plane line.
There are different ways of drawing the cutting plane line, most especially if
it interferes with dimensions as shown in these figures.

1. Refer from the above plan, indicate the path of the imaginary cutting plane
along the floor plan. Indicate the position of the line of sight or viewing by
means of arrow heads.
2. Transfer horizontal dimension from the floor plan to the section using a
metric scale with appropriate scale ratio.

5. Darken the outline and draw section lines on portions of the building
that come in contact with the cutting plane.
6. Finalize the drawing by labeling it.
7. Repeat the same procedure for the cross section drawing.
