Description

The longitudinal sectional elevation is extensively annotated and includes the foundations. The two elevations show the two sides of a corner of the building with the stairs leading up to the porch into the restaurant. The door from this porch is visible on the left of the main sectional elevation. The section goes through the porch and all give detailed measurements and have some construction notes. The details of the steelwork for these stairs are at a scale 1.5" to 1ft. There are also two details of steelwork for the landing at the head of the stairs, these are at a scale of 1" to 1ft. These also have extensive measurements and annotations. The main sectional elevation and the section and elevations of the porch and staircase are at a scale of 1" to 4ft. This is a tracing of the original and has been signed by several Royal Engineers. It was copied and the copy hand-tinted.
