Example Drawings

On this page you can find example drawings of all different types of rail and base structures so that you can double check that your own drawings are correct.

General Arrangement

A general arrangement drawing, or GA drawing, is a type of drawing that shows the overall layout and dimensions of a structure or object, such as a building, a bridge, or a machine. It shows how the different parts and components fit together and where they are located. GA drawings are used to plan, design, and construct projects, and to communicate the design to other people involved in the project, such as engineers, architects, and contractors.

GA drawings usually include different views of the structure or object, such as plans (top view), sections (cut view), and elevations (side view). These views are drawn to scale and show the exact measurements and orientations of the parts and components.

GA drawings may also include pictorial views, such as isometric drawings, which show the structure or object in three dimensions. These views are not drawn to scale, but they help to visualize the overall shape and appearance of the structure or object.

Fire Stairs

Fire stairs are staircases that are designed for emergency use in case of a fire or other disaster. They provide a safe and quick way to exit a building and prevent the spread of fire. Fire stairs are usually isolated from the rest of the building by fire-resistant walls and doors.

It is important to show all measurements in a general arrangement drawing of fire stairs because they help to ensure that the fire stairs are built according to the design and safety requirements. Accurate measurements help to avoid errors, save time and money, and ensure quality and accuracy. They also help to communicate the design to other people involved in the project, such as engineers, architects, and contractors.

When creating GA drawings for fire stairs, an isometric view of the section should be shown before the section view of the stairs themselves to help enhance the understanding and communication of the design.
