Un bâtiment C, cerné par le Bâtiment B, dans la courette 1, élevé chaussée, sur terre-plein d'un simple rez-de-chaussée ;

I'm familiar with this expression, "élevé sur sous-sol" --> "with basement", but I confess than I'm puzzled by this dog's breakfast of a variant of it.

élevé sur terre-plein d'un simple rez-de-chaussée
IOW I'm pretty sure the first chaussée is a glitch. Without it, you have
single-floor, built on a ground slab (as opposed to over a crawlspace, etc.)
Unless it's an older house in which case there might not actually be a ground slab. If there are not currently people living in homes with terre battue floors, there were still not a long time ago.

at street/ground level, on slab
It seems to me that "élevé chaussée" just means it's at ground level, without crawl space, basement or slopes
Peer comment(s):

Daryo
: There is nothing to say that a floor slab *must* be build directly on the ground + "élevé chaussée" has nothing to do with either the presence or absence of some crawl space.

Discussion
Most often there would some cover over the natural ground (a concrete slab, whatever), but even if there isn't any it would still be some structure built "sur terre-plein". If it's some auxiliary building, it's quite possible that "terre-plein" means simply compacted natural ground, and nothing more. See
FAIRE CONSTRUIRE UNE MAISON SUR TERRE-PLEIN OU VIDE SANITAIRE : COMMENT CHOISIR ?
https://www.kazimo.fr/guide-de-la-construction/terre-plein-o...
so
sur terre-plein d'un simple rez-de-chaussée
would mean
built directly on the ground, consisting of a single ground floor.
Though the chosen answer doesn't have relevant references.
