Case Study – Technical Cutaway Drawing Expresses Function and Finished Appearance

Expressing Technical Functionality and Finished Appearance with one Cutaway Perspective Drawing

This is an example of a product that comprises the structural, and the finished aesthetic appearance of a wall.   The Isometric cutaway drawing expresses what this thing is,  how it works and why someone would choose it for a wall system.

What is One-Step?

(description from their web site)

The OneStep Building System is a holistic, high performance building product whereby the entire exterior structure of a building can be built using only ONE product, ONE trade and ONE Step! It’s design is adapted from a concrete form masonry unit (CFMU).

OneStep combines the beauty of masonry, the strength of concrete and the energy efficiency of polystyrene insulation into a singular building product, which dramatically simplifies the construction process and reduces the environmental impact of high performance buildings.
