- Description
- A digital scan (jpg file) of an architectural drawing for a Warriors in Transition barracks at the Fort Sill military post in Oklahoma. The original drawing was done in pen and ink with Prismacolor markers.
- The title and scale are handwritten at the top of the drawing in green ink as [WT BARRACKS ENL. ENTRY & REAR ELEV. / FT SILL SCALE 1/8" = 1' 0"]. Just below, there is an elevation view drawing of the barracks, which is a rectangular building with a large portico extending from the middle. The left side of the drawing features an early concept sketch with both solid and dashed lines depicting a roof, windows, and balconies. The center and right contain a detail elevation drawing replete with color, roof pitch and style, finish materials, assembly types, dimensions, and annotations. The main roof is depicted with vertical dashed lines and is annotated as being a red SSM, while the roof atop the portico is depicted as having a six-foot rise and twelve-foot run. The portico, which casts a narrow shadow on the recessed façade to the right, has six (6) visible windows facing the front and three arches.
- Annotations along the right of the drawing communicate a precast exterior insulation and finish system (EIFS) serving as a sunscreen, aluminum windows with precast concrete windowsills, as well as brick arches along the ground floor, also serving as architectural sunscreens. The ground floor, depicted with brownish Prismacolor marker ink, is annotated as brick, and features precast water tables below the windows.
