This instructional material was collaboratively developed and
reviewed by educators from public and private schools, colleges, and
or/universities. We encourage teachers and other education stakeholders to
email their feedback, comments, and recommendations to the Department of
Education at action@deped.gov.ph.
Technology and Livelihood Education (TLE) of the K to 12 Basic Education Program (BEP)
is composed of four components namely: Agri-Fishery Arts, Home Economics, Industrial
Arts, and Information and Communication Technology (ICT). In this module, the focus is on
ICT – Technical Drafting. Students enrolled under the Technical Drafting specialization
course will be introduced to the different learning activities that will prepare them to be a
knowledgeable and skillful draftsman. Moreover, the said undertakings will mold them on
becoming confident especially while providing technical support when and where needed.
This module is specifically designed and an advocate of self-directed learning through well-
instructed hands-on activities and processes. Conduct and delivery of performance task
outputs is highly targeted to assess level of acquired knowledge and skills. So, explore and
experience the lessons in Architectural Layout and Details and be a step closer to being a
draftsman.

What’s New
Every specialization has its own set of tools, materials, equipment and other
paraphernalia. In Technical Drafting, there are different tools, materials as well as
equipment that will guide a draftsman throughout the drawing process.
It is presumed that all students like you are already aware of the tools and materials
needed in drafting works, considering your learning in the previous year level. However, it is
still necessary that you review the past lesson to help you prepare for higher drafting activity.

Lesson
Architectural Working
2 Drawings
The finished drawings made by the architect, or draftsman and used by the
contractor are called architectural working drawings. The architectural working drawings,
together with the specifications and the general conditions, form the legal contract between
the owner and the contractor. Since the working drawings are a major portion of the contract
documents, they should be very carefully drawn.
8
What’s In
What’s New
Just like a coach board, an architectural working drawing presents the plan of
engineers and architects about a specific job requirement. Together with the specifications,
architectural working drawings are the most important parts of the documents constituting
the contract. Information on the designs, locations, and dimensions of the elements of a
building is found on the architectural working drawings while information on the quality of
materials and workmanship is found in the specifications. A good architectural working
drawing gives the contractor the exact information he needs. It should be clear, simple, and
orderly arranged, and accurately drawn so that scaled measurements will match with
dimensions.
Students will be able to interpret, identify tools and materials used in working
drawings and fully understand the standard procedure in lay outing and detailing
architectural working plans and drawings.
What is It
1. Architectural sheets
a. Sheet #1 - Title page and index (Exterior perspective, site development plan or plot plan,
and vicinity map or location plan is often included in the plan).

SITE DEVELOPMENT PLAN - the outline and measurements of the proposed
building and its placement on the property. It shows the position and the location of
the building with property line, setbacks, approaches, grade contours, landscape and
other pertinent data in relation to the site.
LOCATION PLAN - the top view of the site or lot where the proposed house will be
built. It shows the position of the house inside the lot, the number of the adjacent lots,
streets or lanes before or beside the lot, and the North sign. The location plan is
usually located near the title block. The main line symbol of the North sign is
generally parallel to the side border line of the drawing paper and points upward.
Title Page and Index generally includes title block, table of contents, labels, and the name
of the duly licensed and registered Geodetic Engineer who approves the lot survey plans.

Additional Activities
Technical drawings have border lines on all four sides and a title block, containing
the information necessary to identify the drawing properly. A border is a line drawn around
the inside edge of the paper. It is basically a rectangle drawn precisely and inside this
rectangle is the design area. A title block is normally drawn at the bottom of the paper.
Inside the title block is printed important information such as Name, Title and Date.
For this activity, you will have to draw borders and title block to your working sheet.
The same format will be used for succeeding operation sheets/performance task that you
have to conduct. Observe proper use of tools and accuracy.
You may also watch this video on setting up of border for technical drawing through
this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4hb3B-JcbnE
Materials needed:
Oslo paper
Ruler/triangles/T-square
Pencil and eraser
Instructions:
1. In a clean oslo paper, draw a border
(thick line) by measuring 2.0 cm from
