3. TASK: Continue the foundation wall section that you drew in the first project, by showing the different framing and finishing components that are between the foundation and the roof, and noting it with the items discussed in class. Draw the wood frame wall section shown on the reverse side of this sheet to the scale specified, and noting it with the items discussed in class. Refer to course calendar for assigned and due dates.
4. TASK: In addition to the above structural frame, include a window and door opening in the frame. This will take some research and figuring out. Review the lecture notes and textbook for information. Refer to course calendar for assigned and due dates.

Follow the detailing principles (lettering, line weights, notation practices) reviewed for the first project and remember to look at the comments made on your foundation wall section so you do not repeat the same mistakes! Refer to course calendar for assigned and due dates.
