Shopping centre mall in the rural

The attached two drawings show the outlines of a part section through a shopping centre mall in
a rural Queensland town.
The building consists of a single storey steel framed structure with a laminated timber arch beam
over the middle concourse. The structure has concrete pad and beam foundations and floor slab
on ground. No architectural details are shown for clarity. There is enough detail on the drawings
and with the information below to complete the assignment. Corrugated metal Colorbond is used
for all roofing.
You are part of the construction team on site. Your area of responsibility is the preparation /
sketching of structural details for the contractors on the project.
Sketching Criteria:
Before attempting this assignment re read the Introduction
module on sketching in the study materials.
You are a Site Engineer and creating these details for construction or fabrication. RFI’s (requests
for information), questions or clarification, will slow the project down and you are already behind
the program. So details need to be clear and easy to understand and:
• Labelled, neat and uncluttered. Use a scale ruler and sharp dark pencil for hand sketching.
Marks deducted for poor sketching.
• complete – that is, they should show all elements and relationship of construction in the
detail, e.g., scale used, member sizes, spacing, concrete cover, weld details, bolt sizes,
dimensions, centre lines, section notes etc.
• prepare the sketches on A4 plain paper for the contractor to be able to build

Note: There is no one correct answer to the sketching questions as students may produce a
sketch using different forms of connection, the sketch will dictate the detail required, e.g., bolted
as against welded connections. As this is a detailing exercise, you can ignore specific design
requirements.
You are required to fully label and sketch the following structural details. All dimensions given
are in mm:
Do not scale off the drawings supplied. Member sizes are given in the questions and where
necessary eg bolt sizes, spacing, weld details, concrete cover etc can be gained from the study
material, relevant standards or supplier details. Use A4 plain paper for sketching your answers.
“ex” means cut from plate of a specified thickness.

(A typical set of Assignment 2 sample answers will be available on Study Desk after we release
the marked assignments).
Assignment submission:
Once you complete your sketches,
1) Scan all the hand sketches together to a single pdf (making sure that the scan is clear for
us to mark)
2) Submit Revit (or a similar software) drawing in pdf format
Upload your assignment using the assignment 2 submission box in the study desk.
