Is There A Term For A Tiny Protrusion From A Rectangular Building?
say you have a 30x30 building but in the center of one wall you have a 4x4 area that sticks out (windows on 3 sides) . Is there an industry term for that?

this is for a scale house so the person has a 180 degree view of the front of the building.

Back in our roofing days my brother would call anything he didn't like a f*****g norton. Feel free to apply that one, he never copyrighted it.
Good Luck Dave

I was just trying to think of a term to call it on the quote. We used the term "extension/bay". |

 Me bad, ok just a littleAh, a payment window, observation window, etc... No there is no standard term - It is a simple bump out for X purpose. When drawing plans, it is best to label what the area is for |
