Creating a Layout, Section and Elevation with dimensions using AutoCad

AIM:

To draw the floor plan and section using the proper dimensions techniques and dimension style to document the project.

Introduction :

• plans and section are different types of drawing used by archietects to graphicaly used by the technichal drawing design and construction
• a plan drawing is the drawing on the horizontal plane showing a view from above
• an elevation drawing is drawn on the vertical plane showing a vertical depiction
• a section drawing is also a vertical depiction but one that cuts through space showing what lies within.

Commands used :

• limits
• line
• offset
• hatch
• dimlinear
• dimstlye
• units
• extend
• fillet
• trim
• join
• line weight
• line type
• opject snap

Procedure :

step 1:

1ST & 2ND & 3RD Floor plan

• open the auto cad , set the limits, using limits command
• next draw the line with the length of 16388mm from down to up horizontally
• draw thre line with the length 12150mm horizontally towards
• offset of distance 12150 using offset command vertically
• offset the distance 16388mm using offset command horizontally
• now draw the rooms using the above commands
• bedroom with the length of 3100 as length and as well as width
• another bedroom 3225 as length and width 3100
• now draw draw/kit/dinning room 2550*2775*3250 in mm.
• now draw living room with the size of 4475*2950
• now to draw two toilets with the size of 1250*2400
• another bedroom in partc with size 3000*3225
• next we draw kit room with size of 4475*2863
• now draw toilet room 1250*2150
• another bedroom 3100*3300
• now draw bolcony 1375*1100
• draw the bedroom in part A with size 3175*3000
• leave some space for the varanda with length 3175mm
• another bedroom size 3300*2888
• now draw the toilet size 2275*1225
• now draw kit/din of size 6600*2550*2563
• finally draw the staircase with size 3200*2400, the tread is 250mm and riser 143.75mm and 158,33 mm
• trim uneccessary lines and objects
• draw columns with size 250*350mm
• columns are placed wherever they required for floor plan
• we specify the column layer with sky blue colour
• we have to draw windows and doors with dimensions:
• w1 = 900*1200 mm
• w = 600*1200 mm
• w2 = 1000*1200 mm
• w3 = 1500*1200 mm
• w4 = 500*500 mm
• d = 1000*2100 mm
• d1 = 700*1200 mm
• d2 = 900*2100 mm
• finally indicate the rooms in single text command
• proviode dimension to given floor plan
• draw the section lines as given in the fig.
• and indicates doors and windows

step 2 :

section A-A

• First we have to draw the line with length of 8900 mm horizontally farword
• draw another line from the previous line vertically with the length of 1mm
• next again draw the line from the previous line with the length of 11000mm horizontally backwords from the previous line drawn line.
• next draw the line from the first line and last line we drawn previous line
• offset the particular line with the given offset
• the inner wall offset 125mm outer wall thickness 250mm
• ground level thickness 150mm and 200mm
• next we have to darw the windows where in the required places
• next draw the staircase with the tread 250mm and riser 143.75 & 158.33 mm
• take the line type as dashed lines and set into the particular values of the dadshed line of the structure
• we have to draw the remaining parts , we draw the parapet wall and water tank @ the top of the building
• we have to draw the doors @required placesin first , second and third floors
• next remaining we have to draw the window and shunsade in the particular places
• select layers and make them into diff layers
• next put the dimensions wherever required
• select the single text command to indicate the parts and sections
• finally darw the section line as the section plan

Step 3:

section B-B

• line with the length of 11000mm horizontallyu forward
• next we have to draw another line from the previous line vertically with the lenght 16388 mm
• offset as the same distance with particular direction
• the inner wall offset are 125mm and outer wall offset are 250mm
• ground level thickness 200mm and 150mm
• next we have to draw the windows wherever required in 1st , 2nd and 3rd floor
• next draw the sunshades to protect window from sun light
• we have to select diff colur layers for diff parts in the section as shown below
• next we have to put dimensions wherever required
• write the text to denote the parts in section plan using the single text command

RESULT :

1st , 2nd , and 3rd floor plan and sections using the proper dimensions techniques are drawn succesfully in autocad in detailed manner.
