A drawing that can fulfill the whole criteria becomes a problem for practicing architects. Here we tried to mention and explain all required features for a correct Rajuk approval drawing. All points are mentioned based on most commonly used plots and obviously residential building regarding our practical experience. We think it will help most of the practicing architects.
