You have to really search hard on the internet to come across decent drawings and that quest can be very time consuming. This led to me thinking of creating an online archive of detail examples from all walks of the web. This stops the endless searching and time wasting. The purpose of collating examples is for students and professionals alike to use them as inspiration for their own construction detail drawings. Detailing is something that doesn't come naturally, you have to be informed of building technology and construction methods to begin to grasp how to construct interior and exterior elements. Looking at examples can make you aware of certain materials or terminology needed to develop detail drawings. If you don't know what a certain material or constructional element is Google it and find out so you remember for next time. For example: Observe the drawing above and lets say you didn't know what a stainless steel cap was (don't put it onto your detail drawings if you don't know what it is, it's good to have the knowledge!) A simple Google result would reveal not only what it is but what it looks like. The current website is an early release with more elements expected to follow these include:
