This set of paperwork becomes part of the legal foundation for the project. Each document is vital to the building process. The various plan sheets listed below make up the working drawings that builders and subcontractors typically use to develop their estimates. Carpenters will use the same drawings to interpret the design and build the structure.  \nMany people refer to a set of working drawings as plans or blueprints. In fact, working drawings are part of the complete set of architectural plans. Architectural plans include working drawings, schedules, and other sheets shown in the list below. Many architectural plan sheets are horizontal (section) views of the building. The most common plan sheets include floor plans, foundation plans, and roof plans. The order of plan sheets generally follows the order of the building process. Elevation views are usually before building plans to give builders, homeowners, and trade workers a sense of how the entire project will look on completion. Not all architectural plan sets will include each sheet listed below.  \n1. Title and Legend Sheet(s)  \n2. Plot Plan (site plan)  \n3. Elevations  \n4. Foundation Plan  \n5. Floor Framing Plans  \n6. Floor Plans  \n7. Ceiling Framing Plans  \n8. Roof Framing Plans  \n9. Window and Door Schedules  \n10. Details and Section Views  \n11. Interior Elevations  \n12. Trade Plans (Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing)  \n13. Specifications  \nThe sophistication and detail in a set of construction plans may vary based on building design, owner’s need, and the architect. In any case, enough detail is required to help minimize mistakes and facilitate coordination within the various trades, subcontractors, and materials suppliers. In drawing construction plans, architects, drafters, or builders will illustrate many details in only one place to eliminate confusion and redundant information. For instance, specifying the same stud spacing on every wall section is not required for most plans.  \ntitle sheets  \nThe title sheet (Figure 8.2) is the cover for a set of architectural plans. On new construction, the title sheet typically has a front elevation view of the home. The title sheet normally includes all pertinent information about the primary parties involved with the project. The title sheet will list the architect (designer), owner, builder, and major subcontractors, and it may include a green home certification program’s seal and the green verifier’s information. Other sheets in the plan set will use a title block. The title block organizes some of the same information from the title p","cbCaiolYb86CS6XU","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiolYb86CS6XU","pdf",15811066,"English","# Objectives\n## Architectural plans and plan sheets\n## Title sheets and plan visualization\n## Orthographic projection\n## Isometric perspective","[{\"question\":\"What are the main objectives of this chapter?\",\"answer\":\"The chapter defines and explains the sheets in a set of architectural plans, identifies information in working drawings, introduces common architectural plan scales, and discusses tools for electronic scaling.
