Elevation Layout and
Drawing Techniques

TEST

Directions: Answer the questions with short, complete statements or drawings as needed on an
8 1/2" ⫻ 11" sheet of notebook paper, as follows:
1. Letter your name, Chapter 25 Test, and the date at the top of the sheet.
2. Letter the question number and provide the answer. You do not need to write out the
question. Answers may be prepared on a word processor if course guidelines allow it.

Question 25–1 Who typically draws the main elevations of a structure? Explain.
Question 25–2 List methods of projecting heights from one elevation to another.
Question 25–3 What scales are normally used to draw elevations?
Question 25–4 What is the best method of determining the height of a roof when it is being viewed in a manner that does
not show the pitch?
Question 25–5 What lines should be drawn first when finished-line quality is being used?
Question 25–6 What drawings are required to project grades onto an elevation? Briefly explain the process.
Question 25–7 What drawings are required to draw a structure with an irregular shape?
Question 25–8 Sketch the method of showing the chimney height, and provide the minimum dimensions that must be shown.
Question 25–9 What dimensions are typically shown on elevations?
Question 25–10 What angle is used to represent a 4/12 pitch?

PROBLEMS

Directions
1. Use the sketch from Chapter 18, and draw the required elevations. The sketches do not
contain all of the features represented on the floor plans and elevations. Draw the
elevations so they coordinate with other drawings to be included in the drawing set.
2. Draw the required elevations using the same type and size of drawing material that you
used to draw your floor plan.
3. Design the structure using materials suitable for your area.
4. Refer to your floor plan to determine all sizes and locations. If you find material that
cannot be located using your floor plan, make additions to your floor plan as required.
5. Refer to the text of this chapter and notes from class lectures to complete the drawings.
6. When your drawing is complete, turn in a copy to your instructor for evaluation.
