Elevating a building typically involves a process called "lifting," where the structure is raised to a higher elevation, often to prevent flooding or to comply with zoning regulations. This is usually achieved using hydraulic jacks or a system of beams and supports to carefully lift the building in sections. Once elevated, new foundations or supports are constructed beneath the building to secure it in place. The process requires careful planning and engineering to ensure the building's stability and integrity throughout the lift.

What is the drawing of the external face of a building called?
An elevation view.
What is the difference between invert level and invert elevation?
Invert Level and Invert Elevation are one in the same. Invert Level = Invert Elevation (IE).
How do you calculate the invert elevation of a manhole?
Invert elevations can usually be found directly on as-built drawings of the sewer facility. The simplest way to calculate an invert elevation of a manhole is to measure the depth of the manhole from the surface to the pipe invert. The invert elevation equals the ground or rim elevation minus this depth. If you do not know the rim elevation or invert elevation, a surveyor must measure the invert and/or rim elevation with reference to a nearby elevation benchmark (see: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Elevation_Benchmark.jpg). Also, upstream and downstream invert elevations in a manhole typically differ by about 0.1 feet.
What is the elevation of PETRONAS tower?
The Petronas towers reach a height of 1483 feet (452m) tall, which was the tallest building in the world at the date of its completion, measured to the highest point. Lots of info at this site.. http://www.greatbuildings.com/buildings/Petronas_Towers.html
What is fundamental period of a building?
The fundamental building period is simply the inverse of the building frequency at the lowest harmonic - easy right? Basically, every system has a set of frequencies in which it "wants" to vibrate when set in motion by some sort of disturbance (in building design, typically a seismic or wind event) based on the system's mass and stiffness characteristics. The shortest frequency is known as the natural frequency. The inverse of frequency is the period of the system, and more specifically, the inverse of the natural frequency is the fundamental period.
How do you determine the angle of elevation of a building?
yes
What sort of work is needed for building elevation?
Building elevation comprises of numerous task and conditions. These ranges from carpentry, steel benders and laborers. Elevation is commonly used in placed of high flood risk.
When an elevation drawing says north does that mean looking north or north side?
There are two schools of thought regarding elevation views of buildings. Some say that when you are standing to the north of a building, you are looking at the North Elevation, because THAT is the side that is FACING North. Others say that since you are LOOKING to the South, you are looking at the South Elevation. I myself am baffled that there is even this confusion. Consider this. If you are looking at a house and you can see the front door and the front side of the house, you naturally call this the Front Elevation. There is no ambiguity. You wouldn't think to argue that because you are LOOKING in the DIRECTION of the rear of the building, that you are looking at the rear elevation? That would make no sense at all! So why do some then insist that the name of the elevation is based on the direction you are looking? The North Elevation is the North side of the building. That's it, done!
A drawing of the outside view of a building?
This is called Elevation!
At a certain distance the angle of elevation to the top of a building is 60 From 40ft further back the angle of elevation is 45 Find the height of the building?
Angle of elevation: tangent angle = opposite/adjacent and by rearranging the given formula will help to solve the problem

What city has the higher elevation - Denver or Colorado Springs?
Colorado Springs has the higher elevation. Denver is better know because its elevation (at the state capitol building) is exactly a mile above sea level.
