7.Aim:

To Produce section cut through each room either cutting across longitudinally or in a transverse direction.

Procedure:

  • Open the above created ground floor plan
  • Go to view tab and select section
  • Create the section by clicking the points and go to section in project browser and rename it
  • Create sections for all other rooms with the same procedure.
  • Click the particular section to open the section.

Result:
