The plan of our group is the plan of Omond college. The images above are the photos that we taken about the details we chose. The Image 4 is the detail that I should focus on. We are required to redrew the section detail and change the 1:5 scale to 1:1. The main structure:

1. Weep hole: A weep hole or weeper hole is a small opening left in the outer wall of masonry construction as an outlet for water inside a building to move outside the wall and evaporate. 2. Flashing : Flashing refers to thin pieces of impervious material installed to prevent the passage of water into a structure from a joint.

Sarking: Sarking is the use of wood panels, or "sarking boards", under the shingles of a roof to provide support.
