RRajendra Prasad18 Aug 2022

Aim:- Based on the project saved from Week 3, proceed from the First Floor Level. Model a Ceiling from the architecture tab above the walls at the first-floor level

Introduction:- Ceiling is an over head interior surface that covers a upper limit of a room

False ceiling are essential used to conceiling wires, fire safety, sound proofing and helps in moisture and sag resistance

Procedure:-

Step1:-

Open the week 3 project file
Click on the first floor level then select the ceiling option in the architectural tab

Step2:-

After selecting the ceiling option
Select the pick line option to set the ceiling

Step3:-

After selecting the pick line option click on the inner portion of the wall to create the ceiling
The height of the ceiling is 9'-6"
After completing the ceiling sketch
Click on right mark

Step4:-

After clicking on the right mark ceiling is created
Go to the 3D view to see the 3D model of the drawing
Finally the 3D model looks like this

Result:-

3D model of the building with ceiling

Aim:- Model a roof above the ceiling by selecting the footprints of the ceiling. Using the adjustment toolbars appearing on-screen adjust the roof slope to 10 degrees

Introduction:- Roof is a top covering of a building

It provides the protection against rain, snow and sunlight

Procedure:-

Step1:-

Open the week 3 project file
Click on the first floor level then select the roof option in the architectural tab

Step2:-

After selecting the roof option
Select the pick line option to create the roof with angle

Step3:-

After selecting the pick line option click on the outer portion of the wall to create the roof
After completing the roof sketch
Click on right mark

Step4:-

After clicking on the right mark roof is created
Go to the 3D view to see the 3D model of the drawing
Finally the 3D model looks like this

Step5:-

Here we need to make the slope as 10 degree but the slope in imperial unit
To change the unit of the slope go to the unit by giving a command un
Then the project unit dialouge box opens then click on the slope values which is in formate column

Step6:-

Then change the slope from imperial to decimal degree
Then click OK

Step7:-

After selecting the decimal degree then change the slope value to 10 degree in the property tab
Click on Apply in thr property tab
Go to the 3D view to see the 3D model of the drawing
Finally the 3D model looks like this

Result:-

3D model of the building with sloped roof

Aim:- Using the file saved from weeks 2 to 4, create plan views for ground floor level and first-floor level including all the walls, floors, and components. Separate them to
architecture and structural plans

a. Architecture plan must have walls, floors, and all the components placed within the building
b. Structure plan must have details of only walls, floors, and columns

Introduction:-

Floor Plan :- It is a plan that consists of all the components like walls, columns, family components, doors, windows etc.,
Structural Plan :- It is a plan that consists of only structural components like walls, floors, columns.

Procedure:-

Go to the view tab
To get the floor plan Go to the Foor Plan in the Plan view at Architectural tab

Step2:-

Then the new floor plan dialouge box open click on the edit type and click on view template applied
Assign view templates dialouge box opens then select the options which is in this tab
Then click on apply and click on OK

Step3:-

After click OK then this dialouge box opens
Then click on Apply and click on OK

Step4:-

After setting all the settings

Then the ground floor plan appears

Step5:-

After setting all the settings
Select the First floor in the new floor plan
Then the first floor plan appears

Step6:-

Go to the view tab
To get the structural plan Go to the Structural Plan in the Plan view at Architectural tab

Step7:-

Then the new floor plan dialouge box open click on the edit type and click on view template applied
Assign view templates dialouge box opens then select the options which is in this tab
Then click on apply and click on OK

Then the floor section appears

Step9:-

After setting all the settings
Select the Ground floor in the new floor plan
Then the Ground floor structure plan appears

Step10:-

Select the First floor in the new floor plan
Then the First floor structure plan appears

Step11:-

Select the Roof floor in the new floor plan
Then the Roof floor structure plan appears

Result:-

Ground Floor Architectural Plan

First Floor Architectural Plan

Ground Floor Structural Plan

First Floor Structural Plan

Roof framed structural Plan

Aim:- Using annotate toolbar add dimensions to all the walls and floors with reference to the longitudinal and transverse grids created in the project file

a. The architecture plan dimensions include details on where the components are placed within the buildings with relation to grids. Overall dimensions are sufficient for architecture plans

b. The Structure plan dimensions must include details on the position of all the walls and interior walls with reference to grids. Locate all the framing components of the building with reference to a fixed point using Structural plans

Introduction:-

Dimensions :-

It is a important parameter in the civil engineering because the dimension is a specification of length, width and height/depth
Without a dimension the construction of a building is impossible

Procedure:-

Step1:-

Open the week 3 project file
Click on the annotate tab to give the dimensions
Click on the Linear dimension

Step2:-

Select the linear dimension option then
Select the corner of the wall which has appear in the blue dot
Dimension all the rooms of the building

Step3:-

Select the linear dimension option then
Select the corner of the wall which has appear in the blue dot
Dimension all the rooms of the building

Step4:-

Select the linear dimension option then
Select the corner of the wall which has appear in the blue dot
Dimension all the rooms of the building

Step5:-

Select the linear dimension option then
Select the corner of the wall which has appear in the blue dot
Dimension all the rooms of the building

Result:-

Dimension for Ground Floor Architectural

Dimension for First Floor Architectural

Dimension for Ground Floor Structural

Dimension for First Floor Structural

Aim:- Create a sheet template from the view tab and adjust the parameters on the sheet to add appropriate views

Introduction:-

Sheets :-

Sheets are used to set the page to place the drawings or images in that sheet
The drawing/sheet informations should be changed while creating the sheets
