Small size Basic Schematic drawing need and details :
Here’s a full, practical explanation:
🧱 1. What is a Small Size Basic Schematic Drawing?
A basic schematic drawing is the first-level concept plan for a house or building.
It’s a simple line layout (not a detailed architectural drawing) that shows:
- The shape and size of the building,
- The orientation (North, East, South, West),
- The placement of rooms (living, bedroom, kitchen, toilet, etc.),
- The setbacks, parking, and entry/exit.
It’s usually made before detailed design or municipal submission — to fix orientation, space use, and Vastu compliance.
📌 2. Why You Need a Basic Schematic Drawing
Purpose Description Vastu Planning Ensures all rooms align with natural energies — e.g., kitchen in SE, master bed in SW, etc.Space Optimization Best use of a small plot area by efficient layout. Municipal Compliance Helps check if design fits bye-law norms (setbacks, open space).Client Discussion Easy for owner/architect to visualize before making a final plan.Cost Estimation Acts as a reference for preliminary costing.
📐 3. What Details It Should Include
A small schematic drawing (for, say, a 30’×40’ or 20’×40’ plot) generally includes:
Drawing Element Description Plot boundary Outline of the site with measurements. Setbacks Margins on all sides as per local rules (e.g., Chennai norms).Compass/North mark For Vāstu orientation.
