What This Module is About
Introduction
A floor plan is used in construction to build the structures. This drawing provides
visual guidelines, showing technical details such as dimension etc. The floor plan is also an
avenue for a proposed home of the future homeowner a chance to assess the design in
terms of aptness for the requirements of the family. Designing a floor plan is a meticulous
process that involves many factors and standards to be considered. Symbols are used on
floor plans to label the items with living in the home and other factors more strictly
associated to the construction of the home. One of the most vital concern of the drafter is to
cautiously associate all the symbols, notes and dimensions on the plan to make it
uncluttered and easy to read. Floor plans that are organized are easy to build because there
is a fewer possibility of construction errors than with unorganized plans.
This module is specifically created to introduced and focus on the different hands-on
learning activities that will prepare you to be skilled and poised on your knowledge and skills
and be a step closer to be a draftsman.

What Is It
AREA PLANNING
In creating any architectural design, the designer should progress logically

follow the step by step design process. One of the vital steps is to divide the
functions of the building into specific areas.
Three Major Functional Areas of the House
1. Living Area- the space in the house where the family spends their free time.
a. Living Room d. Terrace

b. Balcony e. Family Room
c. Porch f. Recreational or Game Room
2. Sleeping Area- the area where the family rests.
a. Bedrooms
b. Guest Room
c. Maids Room
3. Mechanical Chore Areas- the place where the family works.

a. Kitchen d. Service Room
b. Dining Room e. Library
c. Bath and Toilet
Living Areas. This is the area of the house where the first impression for the entire
house is being portrayed. This is the area of the house where guests observe, and
dwellers usually spent their free time.
Fig. 1.1. Living Area
In small houses the living area the living room is to perform all the functions,
or any functions as may be designated. Thus facilities, locations, size, decorations,
and shape should plan to provide for the said activities.
Windows- the opening on the walls to provide ventilation to the room.
a. Windows of the living room should be made wider and longer than the rest
of the room to afford more entrance and exit for air.
b. It should be an internal part of the room
c. The view of the window becomes a part of the decoration of the room,
more so if landscape feature is near and readily observable.
Recommended sizes should be at least 2.00 m x 3.00 small, 3.70 m. x 5.50 m.

average or optimum size would be 6.10
Sleeping Areas. The sleeping is usually located in the quite part of the house. The
size and shape of the bedroom depends on the furniture needed and what the family
can afford. One method of conserving of the wall space for bedroom furniture
placement is the utilization of high windows. This will allow the location of the
furniture underneath. Entrance doors, closet doors and windows should be grouped
to conserve all wall space of the room whenever possible.
Fig. 1.2. Sleeping Area
Noise Control in Bedroom
A sleeping room should be free from any noise to provide the optimum comfort and
relaxation to the users. The presence of the unnecessary will only add to the fatigue
of the occupants. The following guides might help you to design bedrooms that is
quite and restful.
1. The bedroom should be away from the major noise of the street, it must be
situated in the quietest part of the house.
2. Using carpeted or porous walls and ceiling panels will be help in absorbing
the noise.
3. Rooms situated above the bedroom should be carpeted.
4. The draperies of floor to ceiling will help in reducing the noise.
5. Double- glazed insulating glasses in windows and sliding doors will reduce
the outside noise.
6. During hot weather the window in an airconditioned rooms should be kept
close.
Service Area. The service area includes the kitchen, laundry, garage workshops,
storage and utility room. Since most of the activities takes place in the service area,
the facilities for maintenance and serving the area of the house should be included.
The efficiency of the service area is greatly dependent on the function of the living
and sleeping areas.
Kitchen- is the place where food is prepared. The storage, mixing center,
preparation, cleaning center and cooking center is connected on the called work
triangle area.
Types of Kitchen:
1. U-Shape- the most efficient arrangement for a small kitchen. The sink is at
the bottom of the “U” and the range and refrigerator are at the opposite side.
The space is ideal at 1.2 or 1.5 m (4 or 5 feet).
Fig. 1.3. U-SHAPE KITCHEN

2. L- Shape- this shape has a continuous counter and appliances and
equipment on two adjoining walls. The remaining space is left for other
facilities like dining and laundry.
Fig. 1.4. L-SHAPE KITCHEN
3. Corridor Type Kitchen- this is the efficient arrangement for a long and
narrow kitchen. Its work triangle is ideal shape.
Fig. 1.5. CORRIDOR-SHAPE KITCHEN
Dining Area- the space provided in the house where food during and or between
mealtime is shared by the members of the family and the visitors.
Fig. 1.6. DINING AREA
Comfort Room- (Bath and Toilet)- the bathroom and toilet need careful planning like
any other rooms in the house.
Fig. 1.7. COMFORT ROOM

Basic Fixtures of a Comfort Room
1. Lavatory
2. Water Closet
3. Mirror
4. Sink
5. Shower
6. Floor Drain
7. Tub
Garage and Carport
Garage- it is a structure or a part of the house for the automobile. It could be

connected to the main structure or as an integral part of it or a separate building. It is
more secure for the car if attached to the main building.
Types of Garage Doors:
1. Two-leaf wing door 4. Sectional Roll-up

2. Overhead 5. Electronic Controlled
3. Four-leaf wing door
Carport- A style of garage with one or more exterior walls removed. It is less
expensive than a real garage.
ROOM SIZES
Entrance- the main opening in the house that provides access to both owners and
visitors into the structure. It should be strategically located where it could serve the
most, usually in front of the building.
The entrance is classified into three kinds, namely:
1. Main Entrance- this should be made visible to the stranger and should
appear, if possible, at the lower portion of the floor.
2. Service Entrance- This opening provides access for the entrance of

supplies into the house and an access to the other service areas, like
garage, laundry and workshop.
3. Special Purpose Entrance- an opening in the house that does not

provide traffic into the house but outward like that of the living room to the
terrace.
Wall Opening
Windows- the kind of wall opening that provides natural daytime lighting and
ventilation to the house to the house or room. It is provided with a shutter to
control the light and air needed and to provide safety for the users at night
time.
Doors and Windows in Plan
1. Show normally swinging doors at 90 degrees opening

2. Doors swing are shown with light lines and quarter symbols
3. Door type is illustrated in plan, only in elevation.
4. Windows type cannot be explained in plan except for width and location
5. Show sill lines with a lighter line weight than walls, jambs and glass.
Steps in Drawing Floor Plans

What’s New
Technical Terms Encountered in Draw Grid and Dimension Lines According to

Architectural Design Standard
Line Weights – is the light or darkness and width of a line.
Guidelines or Construction Lines- are setting-out or guidelines, and they should be

drawn as light as possible. They are generally covered over by stronger final lines.
Hidden Lines- are broken lines and can be either thick or thin depending on their
important. They show work which is not visible.
Centre Lines- are thin chain dotted lines and are used as the name implies, to show
the center of things.
Leader Line- lines are used to connect notes or references to objects or lines in a
drawing
Dimension- is a numerical value expressed in appropriate units of measurement and

used to define the size, location, orientation, form or other geometric characteristics
of a part.
What Is It
Grids
The use of Grid to which sizes and locations of building components may be
related is helpful in preparation of all types and drawings and particularly so when
modular coordination is applied to design and construction. Grid rotations should be
used as appropriate for each form of grid. Most common grid rotation is using letters
to define the line axis and numerals to define the lines on the other axis.
Fig. 2.1. Sample drawing with Grid

The architectural grid is a collection of Grid Lines that lie in a horizontal plane.
Vertical lines can be projected from each grid intersection of the architectural grid-
these extend to the topmost level at which the architectural grid has been applied.
Dimensions
Dimensions are found on all types of architectural drawings and are presented
using lines, numerical values, and symbols or notes and specifications. Drawings
must include all the dimensions needed for construction. Dimensions is a numerical
value expressed in appropriate units of measurement and used to define the size,
location, orientation, form or other geometric characteristics of a part.
Different kinds:
– Linear
– Aligned
– Angular
– Radius/Diameter
– Reference Fig. 2.2. Sample drawing on different
symbols and terminologies on
dimensioning.
Aligned Dimensions
The dimensioning system most commonly used in architectural drafting is

known as aligned dimensioning. With this system, dimensions are placed in line with
the dimension lines and read from the bottom or right side of the sheet. Dimension
numerals are typically centered on and placed above the solid dimension lines. A
dimension line is a line showing the length of the dimension, terminating at the
related extension lines. Extension lines are lines showing the extent of the dimension
and start with a small space from the feature being dimensioned and extend past the
last dimension line.
Rules for Dimensioning Floor Plans
1. Architectural dimension lines are unbroken lines with dimension placed above
the lines. Arrowheads, dash, small circles and diagonal are used to denote
the termination of the dimension line. Arrowheads may also be placed outside
the extension lines when the area is too narrow or limited.
2. Dimensions should be placed to read from the right or from the bottom of the
drawing. The measurements should always be written above dimension lines.
3. Dimension lines are placed about 10mm apart. Overall dimensions of the
building are placed outside all other dimensions.
4. Rooms are dimensioned from the center line of partitions. In some cases, they
maybe dimensioned from wall to wall, exclusive of wall thickness.
5. In dimensioning stairs, the number of risers is placed on a line with an arrow
indicating the direction (up or down)
6. Architectural dimensions always refer to the actual size of the building
regardless of the scale of the drawing.
7. Never crowd dimensions, to free the plan of excessive dimensions, the sizes
of doors and windows are given in the door and window schedule.
8. Refrain from double entry dimensions and omit obvious dimensions.

What’s New
Technical Terms Encountered in Use of Appropriate Scale in Drawing a Floor

Plan
Count or/sets – no measurements are taken. The number of items required is

considered. This is the case for items like basins, toilets, appliances etc. The number
recorded.
Length- only one dimension is required. Length is used to calculate the quantities for
items such as skirting, pipes, gutters etc. Lineal measurement. L/M.
Area- Two dimensions are required to calculate the area in square metres (m2).
Items measured in area include such things as carpets, tiles, glass, painting, brick
walls, roof tiles etc.
Volume- Three dimensions need to be taken to calculate volume. The unit for
volume is cubic meters (m3) the tops of material measured by volume include
concrete, topsoil, and excavations.
Weight- steel work in a building is often measured in weight. They can be measured
in number, m3 or m2 and then multiplied by a weight factor to give quantity in tonnes
(t). some examples of materials measured by weight are; steel reinforcement, steel
beams and columns etc.
What Is It
Designing Floor Plans Using Standard Construction Modules
Material conservation and construction labor is important to consider when

designing floor plans.
Using Metric Dimensions
The unit of metric measure commonly used is the millimeter (mm). Meters (m)
are used for large site plans and civil engineering drawings. Metric Dimensioning is
based on the International System of Units (SI).
Expressing Metrics Units on a Drawing
- When placing metric dimensions on a drawing all dimensions, all

dimensions specified with dimension lines are in millimeters and the
millimeter symbol is omitted.
- When more than one dimension is quoted, the millimeter symbol is placed
only after the last dimension. The millimeter symbol is omitted in the notes
associated in the drawing, except when referring to a single dimension,
such as thickness of materials or the spacing of the members.
Rules for Writing Metric Symbols and Names
- Unit names are lowercase, even those derived from proper names, for
example, millimeter, meter, kilogram, Kelvin, Newton and Pascal.
- Use vertical text for unit symbols. Use lowercase text, such as mm
(millimeter), m (meter), and kg (kilogram), unless the unit name is derived
from a proper name as in K (Kelvin), N (Newton), or Pa (Pascal).
- Leave a space between numerical and symbol, such as 55 kg, 24 m. Do

not close the space like this: 55kg, 24m.
- Do not leave a space between a unit symbol and its prefix- example, use
kg, not k g.
- Do not use the plural of unit symbols- for example, use 55 kg, not 55 kgs.
- Use the plural of spelled-out metric measurements, such as 125 meters.
- Do not mix unit names and symbols; use one or other. Symbols are
preferred on drawings where necessary.
- Millimeters (mm) are assumed on architectural drawings unless otherwise

specified.
Drafting Scales
The architectural draftsman normally uses an architect scale for reducing and
enlarging the size or measurement of an object. There are two system of
measurement, namely Metric system and English system.
Architectural Use of Metric System
Always remember that the smallest the number used in metric scale, the
bigger the size in the triangular scale, whereas, the largest the number used, the
smallest size of actual measurement.
1:05 m. 1: 100 m.
1:10 m. 1:200 m.
1:20 m. 1:300 m.
1:30 m. 1:400 m.
1:40 m 1:500 m.
1:50 m. 1:600 m.
1:75 m. 1:1000m.
Note: The scale of 1: 1000 m. or more is being used in Lot Plan and other
topographical drawings.
Full size scale
The 1:1 is a full size scale and each division measures 1 mm.in width with the
numbering of calibrations at 10mm intervals. This same scale is convenient for
rations of 1:10, 1: 100 and 1:1000.
Half Size Scale
The 1:2 is one-half scale, each division is equals to 2 mm. with the calibration
numbering at 20- unit intervals. In addition, this scale is convenient for rations 1:20,
1:200 and 1:2000.
Architectural Use of metric Scale
USE RATIO COMPARISON TO 1 METER

CITY MAP 1:2500 0.4 mm. = 1 M.
1:1250 0.8 mm. = 1 M.
PLAT PLANS 1:500 12 mm. = 1 M.
1:200 5 mm.= 1 M.
PLOT PLANS 1:100 10 mm. = 1 M.
1:80 12.5 mm. = 1 M
FLOOR PLANS 1:75 13.3 mm = 1 M.
1:50 20 mm. = 1 M.
1:40 25 mm. = 1 M
DETAILS 1:20 50 mm. = 1 M.
1:10 100 mm. = 1 M.
1:5 200 mm. = 1 M.

What Is It
Doors- the planned opening in a wall of the house that is used as entrance or exit in
the house. Its width varies as to its purpose, like exterior or interior openings with a
standard height of 2.10 meter for residentials.
Common Kinds of Doors
1. Panel Doors- a kind of door that is made of board on a wide exposed frame. It
is often provided with a design in a variety of partitions within frame. This is
commonly used an exterior or shutter for residential houses.
2. Flush Doors- this is made of thin sheet of veneer (usually plywood) over a
core wood, or a lawanit over a frame of lumber strips. This type is lighter and
less costly making it more convenient for indoor door shutter.
3. Kalamein Door- this is a thick door provided with sheet metal facing bonded or
attached to a kiln dried wood cores. This is often used as outdoor shutter
where more strength is needed.
4. Blind Door ( Summer Door)

Types of Windows
1. Double Hung Window- a kind of window that could be used in any type of
building except in industries. It is often made of wood, steel, aluminum and
kalamein. It opens up to the one and half the entire area.
2. Reversible window- type of window that is used in both industry and

residence. Its material could either be wood or steel as may be desired. It
also opens to one half of the size like a double hung window.
3. Austral Window- a window that could be used industrial and commercial

buildings like schools and hospitals. It may come in either wood or steel.
When closed it exactly looks like a double hung window. When open, it
may give way to at least one half of its full opening but it is very difficult to
screen.
4. Casement Window- window type that is common residential houses. The
material is often wood, steel and aluminum or bronze. This type is easy to
clean and screen and could be full open when desired.
5. Horizontally Sliding Window- a residential type design of window. Its blade

could be removed for cleaning purposes. The common material used is
aluminum, when opened, it gives way to half the area.
6. Project window- a kind of window that is applicable for commercial,

institutional and public buildings. It comes in either steel or aluminum when
opened. It could be severed inside but could be left open in rain.
7. Combination Window- this type could be a casement and a projected style

in combination like a projected style, this is often made in steel or
aluminum. This is applicable for commercial, institutional and public
buildings.
8. Awning Window- a type of window that could open to at least 100% of the
available space and could be left open in rain. When in heavy- duty
materials it could be in the industries. When light materials are used, it is
good for residential houses. The usual materials used are either wood,
steel or aluminum. It is also called Louver Window.
