This usually dictates the use of structural steel and reinforced concrete for the structural elements of the building—the frame and _______________

Foundation

__________ buildings require greater strength

Larger

Vertical lines are numbered, and horizontal lines are lettered; or the system is...

Reversed

Steel

arrow side...

other side significance

Houses and small frame buildings usually have very simple foundation....

systems

t or f All these greater loads require stronger structural members, more precisely engineered construction methods, and fastenings that transmit the loads from one structural member to the next

t

t or f Alloying chromium with the steel, for example, makes stainless steel.

t

t or f Because of the greater size of the structure, the footing and wall may be more massive for a heavy building and will probably require more and larger-diameter reinforcing steel.

t

t or f Bolts are sometimes used to attach dissimilar materials, such as wood and steel framing members

t

t or f Drawing numbers are made up of one or two letters and numerals.

t

t or f EACH KEYNOTE SYMBOL CONSISTS OF A NUMBER FOLLOWED BY A LETTER SUFFIX

t

t or f Many structural subassemblies are more easily or more accurately fabricated in a shop environment.

t

t or f Most larger commercial buildings are too large to employ the same construction methods as those used with homes and smaller buildings and have different architectural styles than they do

t

t or f Other elements, such as chromium, copper, nickel, or titanium, are used to produce specific properties

t

t or f Structural steel is mild steel (a small amount of carbon is used) that is rolled into specific shapes used for construction.

t

t or f The amount of carbon in the steel determines its toughness

t

t or f The welding symbol is the complete symbol, including arrow, reference line, and any information added to it.

t

t or f The wood or vinyl molding that decorates the exterior of many houses would require too much maintenance for a commercial office building.

t

Each part of the welding symbol has a specific meaning. The arrow indicates what steel parts are to be...

welded

three types of welds 1

Pug

t or f The term welding symbol should not be confused with weld symbol

T

t or f The type of weld used most often in structural steel for construction is called a fillet weld and is indicated by a triangle

T

t or f The upper side of the reference line is called the other side

T

three types of welds 3

butt

_______ ______________ consist of a spread footing that supports a continuous concrete wall

wall foundations

Structural steel members are most often joined by....

welding

A set of working drawings for a large commercial building might fill more than ........

100 sheets

___ to indicate architectural drawings

A

t or f A KEYNOTING SYSTEM IS USED ON THE DRAWINGS FOR MATERIALS REFERENCES AND NOTES.

T

t or f A large building such as the School Addition requires a large number of sections and details to describe all aspects of the structure.

T

t or f Any information, such as the type of weld, that is shown below the reference line applies to the side of the assembly to which the arrow points

T

t or f As buildings become larger and more complex, they place a greater load on the foundation system.

T

t or f In light-frame construction of small buildings, it is customary for callouts on the drawings to label the material used.

T

t or f Interior partitions and other architectural elements may be located by dimensioning to the faces of these exterior walls, which are referenced to the structural grid.

T

t or f On larger projects, however, it is common for a material keying system to be used so that the drawings themselves are not cluttered by excessive notation.

T

t or f The American Welding Society (AWS) has developed a standard system for welding symbols.

T

t or f The dimensions from the grid lines to the faces of exterior walls are usually given at the corners of the building.

T

t or f The superstructure does not impose a heavy load on the foundation, so a simple haunched slab or inverted-T foundation is all that is required to support the building in most soil conditions

T

t or f The symbols for section views and the symbols for detail drawings are similar in appearance and format but have one significant difference

T

t or f The tail of the arrow is used to specify welding processes, electrode materials, and any other specifications that cannot be shown elsewhere on the welding symbol.

T

t or f The weld symbol indicates the type of weld to be made.

T

t or f larger buildings tend to be designed with much of the load being transmitted through a relatively small number of columns, instead of being spread over a sill member by closely spaced studs.

T

__________ ____________ includes the number of the drawing and the drawing title

The Drawing Index

The locations of major architectural components, such as walls, are located by dimensions that are referenced to the....

grid lines
