Introductory Message
For the facilitator:

Welcome to the TLE 9 – Technical Drafting Module on Important Features that are
Shown in the Ceiling Plan in the Building!

This module was collaboratively designed, developed and reviewed by educators from
Schools Division Office of Pasig City headed by its Officer-In-Charge Schools Division
Superintendent, Ma. Evalou Concepcion A. Agustin in partnership with the Local
Government of Pasig through its mayor, Honorable Vico Sotto.
The writers utilized the standards set by the K to 12 Curriculum using the Most
Essential Learning Competencies (MELC) while overcoming their personal, social,
and economic constraints in schooling.

This learning material hopes to engage the learners into guided and independent
learning activities at their own pace and time. Further, this also aims to help learners
acquire the needed 21st century skills especially the 5 Cs namely: Communication,
Collaboration, Creativity, Critical Thinking and Character while taking into
consideration their needs and circumstances.

In addition to the material in the main text, you will also see this box in the body of
the module:

Notes to the Teacher

This contains helpful tips or strategies that
will help you in guiding the learners.

As a facilitator you are expected to orient the learners on how to use this module.
You also need to keep track of the learners' progress while allowing them to manage
their own learning. Moreover, you are expected to encourage and assist the learners
as they do the tasks included in the module.
For the learner:

Welcome to the TLE 9 – Technical Drafting Module Important Features that are
Shown in the Ceiling Plan in the Building!

The hand is one of the most symbolized part of the human body. It is often used to
depict skill, action and purpose. Through our hands we may learn, create and
accomplish. Hence, the hand in this learning resource signifies that you as a learner
is capable and empowered to successfully achieve the relevant competencies and
skills at your own pace and time. Your academic success lies in your own hands!

This module was designed to provide you with fun and meaningful opportunities for
guided and independent learning at your own pace and time. You will be enabled to
process the contents of the learning material while being an active learner.

This module has the following parts and corresponding icons:

Expectation - These are what you will be able to know after

completing the lessons in the module

Pre-test - This will measure your prior knowledge and the

concepts to be mastered throughout the lesson.

Recap - This section will measure what learnings and skills

that you understand from the previous lesson.

Lesson- This section will discuss the topic for this module.

Activities - This is a set of activities you will perform.

Wrap Up- This section summarizes the concepts and

applications of the lessons.

Valuing-this part will check the integration of values in the

learning competency.

Post-test - This will measure how much you have learned from
the entire module.
 EXPECTATION
At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
1. Identify the important features in the ceiling plan;
2. Appreciate the importance of a ceiling plan.

PRE-TEST

Directions: Match Column A to Column B. Write your answer on the space

provided before the number

A B
1. The structural member a) Fixtures

RECAP
Directions: Listed below are some of the most important skills that you
must gain to draft a quality floor plan. On the right side of the
matrix lists the skills expected of you to master. Rate yourself
by checking “Not much”, if you are not so familiar yet, “A little”
and/or “A lot”, if you are already familiar with the skills. 131 Do
not feel bad if you checked “Not Much” in all of the skills. Keep
in mind that this is being administered to determine your pre-
entry knowledge of and skills on the lesson to be presented.
 Not A

LESSON

Important Features that are Shown in the Ceiling Plan:

Ceiling plan can be shown into two presentations:

1. Ordinary presentation of ceiling plan

▪ Ceiling board
▪ Partitions
▪ Ventilation
▪ Label which indicates the type of ceiling materials
▪ Dimensions

2. Reflected Ceiling Plan

It is a drawing, which shows the items that are located on the
ceiling of a room or space. It is referred to as a reflected ceiling
plan since it is drawn to display a view of the ceiling as if it was
reflected onto a mirror on the floor. This way the reflected
ceiling plan has the same orientation as the floor plan
associated with it.

The following features that are shown in the reflected ceiling plan:
1. Lighting fixtures
2. Ventilation
3. Smoke detector
4. Wood moulding
5. Ceiling board
There are many design elements to consider in designing the ceiling plan:
1. Consider the distance from floor line to ceiling line level.
2. Study the 3-D aspects of volumes and space.
3. Consider using unexpected materials or finishes.
4. Consider the light reflection and sound absorption.

ACTIVITIES

Directions: Enumerate what is being asked below.

I. Two (2) presentations of Ceiling Plan
