What does this architectural symbol mean?

[Tony L]

I'm checking through the drawings my architectural technician has done for me.  Can somebody let me know what this architectural symbol means please?  It's used in the detail drawing, below.

Looks like Sputnik 1 has landed . But it’s unlikely to be an architectural requirement for plans .

It may be @Pocster's WC seen from above with him on it...

Sack trolley, clock hands or the image is a standardized symbol (IEC 60417 - 6284) used in technical documentation. 

No idea.

Is it the new name for Prince Andrew.

[Adrian Walker]

It’s similar to a machine surface symbol.

If it’s anything like a lighting design I’ve just seen, it’s a floor level up light. 

 

Wouldn’t it be easier to just ask the author? 👀🤔

Another TAFKAP.  Could be.  The Andrew Formerly Known As Prince.

 

My new name for him is Andy Battenberg.  Being a clever chap, you will already know, @SteamyTea: his ancestors anglicised the Battenberg name because they no longer wanted to be associated with Mr Kipling's best selling cake.

I'll ask the arch tec, although I think @Nickfromwales is probably right - thanks Nick.  Strange though, that there's no other lighting shown anywhere else.

 

I asked here first, because I my list of requests for change & questions is already so long, I wanted to slim it down a little, & also do my best to understand what's going in these drawings before I go back to the arch tec to ask for changes.

Many heads always better than one, imho.

He takes the biscuit. Does that count?

I heard that his misses liked being the filling in his sandwich.
