Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Seriously, who comes up with these questions? I bet the architect who designed this building is just laughing at us right now.

I'm not sure, but I think D) Elevation view could also be a vertical view of a building.

D. Elevation view is the way to go. I mean, who needs to see the inside of the building when you can just look at the front?

I agree with Margurite, because a sectional view shows the internal structure of a building.

A sectional view is definitely the right answer here. It shows the building cut in half, so you can see the interior details.
