Abstract
When preparing exterior elevations, it is important to keep in mind that these drawings revert to orthographic projection. All plans mentioned in preceding chapters are horizontal sectional views. The elevations are exterior views of the completed project. In a remodeling job the exterior elevations may show existing conditions with the changes or additions that are to be made. However, some knowledge of the wall sections, their construction and the layout of their openings, is essential before the elevations can be completed.
