A reflected ceiling plan includes the layout of which features?

• A. Room partitions
• B. Exterior walls
• C. Site grading
• D. Stair configurations

Answer: (A)

A reflected ceiling plan shows what is located in and on the ceiling as if the ceiling were reflected down onto the space. It focuses on ceiling-related elements and how they interact with the room, such as lighting fixtures, HVAC diffusers and grilles, sprinkler heads, ceiling grids or bulkheads, access panels, and other features that are seen from below. Room partitions are included because their location can affect and be coordinated with ceiling elements—where a partition meets the ceiling, where drops or bulkheads occur, and how devices are positioned in relation to those partitions. Exterior walls, site grading, and stairs aren’t part of the ceiling view; exterior walls belong on the floor or exterior plans, site grading on the site plan, and stair configurations on floor/egress or stair plans.
