Choose the view that answers the question

Start with the question, then choose the view. To locate the building on its lot, use a site plan. To understand the room arrangement, use a floor plan. To see a vertical relationship, follow a section. When you can view the drawings, compare Banksia sheets A one zero one, S two zero one and A three zero one. Keep the C one project prefix and revision R zero four together. The site plan shows the southern public frontage. The floor plan shows the living room. The longitudinal section shows floor, eaves and ridge levels. These views complement one another; they do not answer the same question. Now pause. Find the sheet you would use for each of those three questions, and explain your choice. Next, ask what the drawing leaves out. A material may be identified on a plan but specified in a written document. Reading the job means following that chain, not guessing from the picture.
