Exemplar Sections 1 - 1:50

Boathouse near Aure (Norway) - TYIN Tegnestue Architects (2011)

From my research of various periodicals, Books and Internet sites it has been quite difficult to find sections of the required scales (1:100 and 1:50). This is due mainly to the fact that all the architectural constructions within these books are quite large and it is impossible to fit those buildings into a book or magazine unless it is at a much larger scale (1:500 etc) or unless it is a small building.

                         

I therefore had to look at some smaller constructions to see the sort of detail they were including. Whilst the buildings I have found for 1:50 are small buildings, the level of detail I include within my sections will be similar to the exemplars, however the detail will be multiplied throughout the section of my underground community. 

Original Section at 1:50

From the section above it is obvious to see at this scale it is important to start including some of the finer details. This may include wall panels or surfaces, windows and doors, smaller structures and various activities that may prove the reason for this architectural imposition.

Whilst the section below is not totally clear, it is easy to see from the section that there is a regular activity undertaken in this room through the use of the chain and bucket system for the fire. Activities occurring like this in my building will also be communicated in the 1:50 sections I provide.
