Some examples
It has been noted that even the most complex of
projects is unlikely to engage more than a handful of the
available elemental sub-divisions. By the same token, it
would be a very simple project indeed that did not
benefit from a degree of elementalisation. Two examples
are given here:
Project A—a multi-storeyed building of some two
million pounds contract value (part of which has been
used already in 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3, as well as 1.14,
1.15 and 1.16 in Chapter 1).
Project B—a small house.
General arrangement plans—primary
elementsNote that CI/SfB Table 1 offers the following choice
within the general summary code (2-):2.11 Floor plan or roof plan? The problem is avoided if all plans are treated as ‘levels’
(21) Walls, external walls
(22) Internal walls, partitions
(23) Floors, galleries
