A section is literally that a cross section diagram of a given part of the house showing exactly what goes where. A section diagram will show in great detail what the foundations walls floor systems and roof are made of and how they re made.

Instead lengthy components like walls and floor platforms are truncated using a break line.

Cross sections also show window details such as dimensions exact locations with respect to interior walls and their heights relative to the ceiling or floor.
