The Girder and Panel Building Set construction kits enabled a child to build plastic models of mid-twentieth century style buildings. Vertical plastic columns were placed in the holes of a Masonite base board and horizontal girders were then locked into the vertical columns to create the skeletal structure of a model building.

Line art is a rather non-specific term sometimes used for any image that consists of distinct straight and curved lines placed against a (usually plain) background, without gradations in shade (darkness) or hue to represent two-dimensional or three-dimensional objects. Line art is usually monochromatic, although lines may be of different colors.
Artistic drawings are subjectively interpreted; their meanings are multiply determined. Technical drawings are understood to have one intended meaning. [1] A draftsman is a person who makes a drawing (technical or expressive). A professional drafter who makes technical drawings is sometimes called a drafting technician.
Various scales may be used for different drawings in a set. For example, a floor plan may be drawn at 1:50 (1:48 or 1 ⁄ 4 ″ = 1′ 0″) whereas a detailed view may be drawn at 1:25 (1:24 or 1 ⁄ 2 ″ = 1′ 0″). Site plans are often drawn at 1:200 or 1:100. Scale is a nuanced subject in the use of engineering drawings.
A working drawing is a type of technical drawing, which is part of the documentation needed to build an engineering product or architecture. Typically in architecture these could include civil drawings, architectural drawings, structural drawings, mechanical drawings, electrical drawings, and plumbing drawings.
