Condition of being elevated; height; exaltation.
The distance of a celestial object above the horizon, or the arc of a vertical circle intercepted between it and the horizon; altitude; as, the elevation of the pole, or of a star.
The angle which the style makes with the substylar line.
The movement of the axis of a piece in a vertical plane; also, the angle of elevation, that is, the angle between the axis of the piece and the line o? sight; -- distinguished from direction.
A geometrical projection of a building, or other object, on a plane perpendicular to the horizon; orthographic projection on a vertical plane; -- called by the ancients the orthography.
The arrangement, proportions, and details of any vertical side or face of a building. Also: an architectural drawing showing an exterior or interior wall of a building. A building’s main elevation is usually its facade.
1) The height above sea level (altitude); 2) A geometrical projection, such as a building, on a plane perpendicular to the horizon.
The angle between the horizon and an antenna's beam.
The vertical component in aiming a cannon, used for ranging purposes. Expressed in degrees above horizontal. See also: deflection.
usually, referring to terrain data, meaning height above sea level; but also a paraline drawing of an object or scene as seen from the side
The number of degrees the antenna is pointed above the horizon.
The body’s propulsion into the air away from the floor, such as in a leap, hop, or jump.
The distance above or below the level of the ocean (sea level).
Vertical height from a defined reference datum.
An exterior face of a building; also, a drawing thereof.
A horizontal view of a building, or object, from one side.
the height of an area above sea level.
Angle between antenna beam and horizontal plane (measured in vertical plane).
The vertical distance between mean sea level and a point or object on, above or below Earth's surface.
(a) Distance above or below a prescribed datum or reference. (b) Engineering term referring to any wall view of a structure.
Motion around a horizontal axis; opposite to azimuth. Fault - A crack or break in the crust of a planet along which slippage or movement can take place.
The distance that any point on the ground is above a certain point called a datum. Elevations in Harris County range from 0 feet in the southeast by Galveston Bay to over 300 feet in the Northwest corner of the county. Back
The altitude or height above some given line or datum plane; such as sea level, low water, etc. The act of raising. The projection of an object on a vertical plane, used in drafting.
The orthographic projection of a vertical element (building wall, façade or detail such as a door or window) onto a vertical picture plane. Elevations are identified by compass reference, ie., a north elevation is the view of the wall which faces in a northerly direction.
The front view of an object. Seen as if someone was standing outside a building at street level and looking at the object (as if taking a picture). There are usually four; front, rear, left side and right side.
A measure ment in height relative to some benchmark.
The vertical distance above sea level of a ground location.
The measurement of the tilt of a satellite antenna, measured in degrees, that is required to point the antenna at the communications satellite. If, for example, the antenna were aimed at the horizon, the elevation angle would be zero (directly overhead would be 90 degrees).
1) Drawing showing one side only of a structure. 2) Vertical distance above an established level or grade.
A drawing or photograph that shows one face of a building.
height; find this on a topographic map to show the terrain
in surveying, elevation is the distance that is measured below or above a specific marker.In architecture, elevation is a diagram, sketch, or drawing of the side or the front of a structure.
The vertical height of one point on the Earth above a given plane, usually sea level.
An orthographic projection of the vertical side of a building.
An orthographic view of some vertical feature of a house. (Front, rear, side, interior elevation)
An accurate drawing depicting the side view of a rig.
The vertical distance of a point above or below the surface, usually designated as sea level
An option that allows you to change the angle at which you view a 3-D chart.
the highest level or degree attainable; "his landscapes were deemed the acme of beauty"; "the artist's gifts are at their acme"; "at the height of her career"; "the peak of perfection"; "summer was at its peak"; "...catapulted Einstein to the pinnacle of fame"; "the summit of his ambition"; "so many highest superlatives achieved by man"; "at the top of his profession"
angular distance above the horizon (especially of a celestial object)
distance of something above a reference point (such as sea level); "there was snow at the higher elevations"
(ballet) the height of a dancer's leap or jump; "a dancer of exceptional elevation"
drawing of an exterior of a structure
a drawing of the deck from ground level
a drawing of the side or face of the structure)
a drawing that represents a view of the finished structure as you would see it from the front, back, left, or right
a drawing that shows the client and the contractor what the exterior of a structure looks like
a picture of the front of a building, set upright and properly drawn in the proportions of the contemplated work
a two-dimensional drawing which shows a facade or side-view of a design
a view of an interior or exterior wall
Height at which the top of the pool is set in relation to other structures. The elevation of the pool usually denotes the top of the finished coping material.
A range in which the zero value of the measured variable exceeds the lower range value.
The angular distance of a satellite above the horizon. This information is used to properly position the satellite dish.
the vertical component in a 3-dimensional measurement system. Elevation is measured in reference to a fixed datum.
Distance above sea level that the point is. Necessary to determine slope and determine drainage. Example: Contour map, hydrometers.
Drawing depicting front and side views of an exhibit.
The vertical angle used in combination with azimuth to describe the location of an object in the sky. An object on the horizon has an elevation of zero. An object at the zenith has an elevation of 90°, at which azimuth becomes meaningless.
a view in orthographic projection
The outside of a specific model. A single floor plan may have multiple elevations for you to choose from, each with varying architectural styles, building materials, and exterior treatments.
() A drawing of a facade of a structure.
the height of the land
How high a location is above sea level
see azimuth and elevation.
A close cousin of the Azimuth, elevation refers to the height and angle (vertical axis) the satellite dish points while searching for a signal. Signal calculators will let you know what the correct elevation is. The elevation of your dish must be properly fixed in order to get the best signal possible.
Two-dimensional graphic representation of a building.
A type of architectural drawing that depicts each façade of a home when viewed straight on.
A mechanically accurate, "head-on" drawing of a face of a building or object, without any allowance for the effect of the laws of perspective. Any measurement on an elevation will be in a fixed proportion, or scale, to the corresponding measurement on the real building.
The exterior design of a building.
