2d Floor MapS aNd 3d deep drawiNgS

2D floor plans show the basic outline of a building including walls, doorways, windows and

entrances. It is a flat drawing or a floor map that shows the layout of every part of the
building very clearly. Before construction, the building is described using the floor map. A
floor map creates a key to illustrate how the available space should be used.
Look at the floor map of Bharat’s house.

It shows the planning of the space available and the
windows and doors in the walls of the house. The floor
map does not give a complete picture of the house or
show what it would look like after it is built.

The picture alongside shows the deep drawing or the 3D
model of Bharat’s house. A deep drawing is a 3D drawing
showing the length, width and height of a house or a
building. It is drawn on the basis of the floor map. The
deep drawing matches the specifications of the floor map.
