Creating a Floor plan, Footing detail and Isometric view using AutoCad

AIM:-

To create a Floor plan, Footing details and isometric view using AutoCAD.

INTRODUCTION:-

The main objective of this challenge is to get in touch with various tools in AutoCad like rectangle, polylines, modification tools like copy, move, offset. These tools will be understood by creating load bearing wall over spread footing, isolated footing, two bedroom building, foundation details and isometric view of steps & gable wall.
