Follow details and schedules
Follow details and schedules
Find the footing tag on the current plan and trace it to the matching detail and schedule. The plan establishes location. The detail explains the depicted arrangement and gives further references. The schedule supplies information for the identified footing type.
The Onshift image below is a section through a wall and footing. Its notes refer you to wall elevations, a basement plan for reinforcement information, architectural drawings for waterproofing and a footing schedule for footing reinforcement.
Those references are part of the information, not optional extras. This image alone does not specify a complete reinforcement requirement. Obtain the matching current documents, check the footing identifier and read the applicable notes before describing the requirements.
Worked example: The note 'REFER FOOTING SCHEDULE ON PLANS FOR FOOTING REINFORCEMENT' tells you where to look next. It does not tell you a bar size or spacing. Record that reference and locate the matching current schedule. If you do not have it, report the gap.

Read the lesson transcript
A section is a cut through a building, taken at the line shown on another view. Open Banksia S two zero one when you are ready to study the drawings. Find the A to A cutting line, then open the A to A section, C one A three zero one. Check both identities and revisions. The written overall dimension is sixteen thousand millimetres. The section labels finished floor at ninety-nine point four zero and ridge at one hundred and four point two zero, on a fictional local datum. The difference is four point eight metres. Pause and make that comparison yourself. Then read the limitations. The section does not provide a connection design. The footing teaching image uses the same discipline: references lead you to schedules and other drawings. If those sources are absent, explain what remains unknown. A convincing picture is not a complete specification.
Worked example: Read strip-footing details
Follow the footing image's references to the other drawings and schedule. Explain which information you still need before describing the reinforcement requirements.
Optional example hosted on TikTok. You can also use the lesson explanation and drawings.
Find it in the source
Trace A-A and B-B on S201 to the titled sections A301 and A302. Compare the written 16000 mm and 11000 mm dimensions.
Try it yourself
Which section runs along the 16000 mm dimension? What is the ridge height above finished floor in A301, and can the section specify a connection design?
