1. CROSS-SECTION OF LOAD BEARING WALL

AIM

To draw the cross-section of Load bearing wall over spread footing by using AutoCAD software

INTRODUCTION

This type of drawing can be drawn by using the line command or rectangle command with specifying the length and angle of the drawing

PROCEDURE

  • Open AutoCAD software
  • Choose the imperial template and start from scratch
  • Set the units to decimal and select ok
  • Ensure the dynamic input is off
  • Choose line command by pressing 'L' enter and to give the dimensions to the command, the line was drawn.
  • Indicate the direction of the line by line keeping ortho mode is ON
  • Give the line measurement as per given in drawing as question
  • After completion of drawing exit from line command and starting giving dimensions
  • To give dimensions enter 'DIM'(Dimension) and select the line to locate the dimension in object
