Elevation W/ Courtyard


Richo

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, need a quick hand on a elevation drawing.

 

so the house i have designed has a courtyard in the middle of the house, with an open roof (basically the roof has been chopped out)

 

the roof is of skillion design and rises from the south and falls to the north.

 

now im drawing up the north elevation and im up to the roof. so i am wondering, do i leave a section in the elevation to indicate there is an open roof here, or dont you see it in the elevation?

 

sorry if its a noob question, but im still fairly new to building design and drafting

It is the first one, where the cut is on the slope.

 

i will have a few goes at getting this. i might be back soon with more questions.

 

thanks for the response

okay, so here i am, back with a question.

 

the first pic is a north elevation, where it shows where the courtyard is width wise in relation to the house.

the second pic is a east elevation that shows the slope of the roof and the location of the courtyard in that relation.

 

my question is, how can i caulcate where to locate the roof opening in the elevation? from top and bottom and so fourth

Well, you dont need to calculate, just use contruction line

follow disposition of example, it's quit simple.

A drawing is better than a long speech also, I'm attached my drawing
