Project 2 - Measured Drawings

26members assigned to measure and document the historical heritage building and translate all the data into a set of drawings. Firstly, we divided our task and the number of group members evenly according to the respective measurement groups, which consist of the floor plans, elevations, sections and detailing group. After that, we further divided ourselves into the process teams, in charge of AutoCad, Research, Report, and Model making group. It took us a few days of group discussion before we finally organized ourselves into a proper table chart. Each group was lead by a sub-group leader, who was in charge of giving the other team members guidance and measuring task. In a group of , we were

During the measurement of the building, different techniques were used to carry out our task successfully. To achieve a more precise measurement, we used different measuring tools on site, which were measuring tapes, digital laser measuring devices, rulers and set square. After compiling the measurements, the team then translate the measurements of building plans, elevations, sections, and detailing into technical drawings.

At the end of the project, I was able :

To identify the Architectural style and influence of the building.
To execute the appropriate measuring methods when measuring the building and site.
To acquire the proper skills and techniques during fieldwork.
To document well the information into graphic and physical presentations about the building's structure and existing condition.
To obtain accurate measurements of the whole building.
To produce precise scale drawings according to the existing heritage building on site.
To gain a better understanding and knowledge of using AutoCad and Rhinocerous software
