Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This is a file showing colour-coded plan and elevation views for a wall in Flemish Bond of one brick’s thickness.

In the elevation (that’s to say the right-hand-side-most diagram), heading bricks appear in brown, stretching bricks are in orange, and queen closers are in pale purple. The same colour scheme obtains for the plan diagrams (left and centre). Obviously where an actual pedestrian were viewing an actual wall, everything coloured pale blue in the plans would -- from the vantage point of this pedestrian -- be hidden behind the facing bricks, and can not therefore appear in the elevation diagram.

A careful observer will note the wall represented by the elevation is nearly twice the length of the wall shown by the plan diagrams. If the plan diagrams included a greater number of units, the 'L' shapes would appear rather thin; this thinness makes the pattern of units in the plan hard to discern, especially where the image is shrunk to fit a small area such as a spot on a Wikipedia page. If on the other hand the elevation includes only a small number of units, then the overall effect of an unbroken area of Flemish bond is hard to discern.

The SVG file was written using gedit 2.30.4 run on Debian 6.0.7 in April 2013.
