Guidelines for Dimensioning • Architectural dimension lines are unbroken lines with dimensions placed above the line. • Foot &/or inch marks are normally used on architectural dimensions. Sometimes a dash is used 8-4 or 8’4”. • Overall dimensions for the length of the building should be placed outside other dimensions. • Framed interior walls are dimensioned to the center of partitions. • Dimensions that cannot be seen on the floor plan or those too small to place on the drawn plan are noted with leaders. • Windows, doors, and beams are dimensioned to their centerlines. • Architectural dimensions always refer to the actual size of building regardless of the scale of the drawing.
Correct Dimensioning Notice that location dimensions are from the corner of the room to the center of windows, doors and partitions. These should be to the center of the windows. Notice that the smaller dimensions are closest to the plan and the largest dimensions are furthest away.
