Here is what I have so far for the section, 200 x 600mm primary floor beams with 200 x 200mm secondary beams angle bolted to them. The floor is made up of trapezoidal profiled steel floors with 100mm thk infill concrete. The internal wall partitions are made up of 12mm thick boards with metal studs at 800mm centre to centre, with acoustic partition and sealant. As for the ceiling, I couldn't think of what to do yet so I just added some false celiling panels hanging from the structure above.
Am still working on the glass but basically there are two systems. Facades flushing with the structure will be made out of isosilis (how to spell?) triangles of 2.4 wide by 3 m tall. Facades for the duplex seperating the interior from the terracing will be made of tempered glass with glass fins as support to reduce obstruction to views and daylighting. I will post more pictures later.
As for the drawing now, it may be unclear, so i will see if i could adopt thom mayne's drawing method where he stretches a part of the section into a to-scaled isometric detailing. And too I will have to integrate the quality of flats with some photoshopped plants.
