Technical drawing task/ project- timeplan


Technical drawings are incredibly detailed diagrams of how a building works and/or is constructed. A technical drawing bridges the gap between the design element and practicality of building something.


I have created a timeline/plan to help stay on track and keep up to date with the different tasks. However since making this timeline, I have found that the plan (task 1) has taken longer to make than I originally planned. This is something I may need to consider in the future.


Things to consider/ remember when technical drawing:

  • Get detailed measurements of doors, windows and stairs

  • Measure the height from floor to ceiling

  • Measure the height of skirting boards, dado rails, picture rails

  • Try to be accurate with your plan and measurements

  • Consider line thickness

  • Not to smudge the pencil

  • 4 metres must be kept around each part of the set to allow for fire exits etc

  • Arrows indicate doorways, entrances and exits

  • Nothing should be drawn free hand- A template should always be used- I found this particularly challenging when drawing circles.

  • Bold thick lines indicate solid lines

  • Hatched lines are where the camera can't see

  • Dashed lines show items/objects hanging/ not touching the floor

  • Doors must show what way they open up
