DelineoElevations

Every wall, inside and out.

Elevations come straight from the plan, so change the room and every wall that depends on it follows.

The problem

Elevations Drawn Twice

Plans and elevations drawn separately drift apart. A moved window is on one drawing and not the other, and the mistake turns up on site.

The answer

Drawn From the Plan

There is one set of measurements, so the plan and its elevations always agree.

01

Inside: every wall

Every wall with its units and openings, dimensioned. Tap any figure to type over it.

02

Dimensioned the way builders read them

Sectional elevations dimensioned the way architects and builders read them, so the person fitting it can work from the sheet.

03

Outside: front, rear and sides

Outside elevations show the eaves, ridge and ground levels, with roofs, chimneys and roof windows.

04

The whole house in context

Survey the whole building so every drawing starts from what is really there.

FAQ

Questions.

Do I draw the elevations separately?

No. They come from the plan and update with it.

Can I print them?

Yes. Elevations are part of the design pack, printed with a title block and scale bar.
