Step 2:In project browser select first floor level

Step 3:Select architecture tab

Select roof by footprint in roof option

Step 4:Select line option

Draw lines where needed roof

Then click tick mark

Step 5:Select 3D view

Step 6:Select the roof

In property browser change the slope to 10 degree

If it is in imperial (enter unit command change the slope to degrees)

RESULT

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

Here we are using plan views in view tab

PROCEDURE

Step 1:Open the week 3 project

Step 2:In project browser select first floor level

Step 3:Select view tab

Select plan view

Select floor plan(it is the architecture plan)

Step 4:Select view tab

Select plan view

Select structural plan

RESULT

The Architecture plan and Structural plan for ground floor is created

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

1. 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
2. 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

Step 2:In project browser select first floor level

Step 3:Select view tab

Select plan view

Select floor plan

Step 4:Select grids from architecture tab

Draw grids and name them

Step 5:Mark dimensions

Step 6:Select view tab

Select plan view

PROCEDURE

Step 1:Open the week 3 project

Step 2:Select the view tab

Select sheet in view tab

Select a sheet

Step 3:Edit the data in the sheet

Step 4:Go to plan

Drag the Structural plan into the sheet

Step 4:Go to plan

Drag the Architectural plan into the sheet

RESULT

Sheets are set correctly and Architecture and Structural plans are imperted to sheets

AIM

Using the elevation tab create the elevation views, looking at your building from East, North, South, and West

PROCEDURE

Step 1:Open the week 3 project

Step 2:Select view tab

Then select elevation

Step 3:Place it on four side

Rename it as North,South,East,West

Step 4:Select East view in elevation

Step 5:Select West view in elevation

Step 6:Select North view in elevation

Step 7:Select South view in elevation

RESULT

Elevations are created and four side elevation of the model is created

AIM
