Creating a Layout, Section and Elevation with dimensions using AutoCad

• AIM: To create plan, section , elevation as shown in figure by using proper dimension and technique and dimension style to document the project and also assuming the sizes of doors and windows as per

construction

• INTRODUCTION

1. The plan which was given in figure -1 was a floor plan of the building
2. The given plan floor plan includes all 1st ,2nd ,3rd floors of the building
3. The given figure -2 is about the elevation of that 3 storey building from section-AA along with steps from the ground floorto terrace
4. figure -3 was about elevation from section-BB

• SECTIONS-AA

1. To create the floor plan the total area of the plan should be drawn by using the ''line tool'' and ''rectangular tool''
2. Then the walls and room sizes are separated by the offset tool with its required values
3. The steps, doors, windows are created by the by referring the given dimension or by taking the standard sizes
4. Steps are created the by using the array and tool from drawing the single line step line
5. text are created the by using the ''mtext'' tool and copied for the multiple text required areas through copy tool
6. The dimension are specified by using ''dimlinear''
7. For lines with arrows the qleader tool was created

• SECTIONS -BB

1. To create the elevation drawing we should take a reference of the floor plan drawing from section-BB
2. Dimension of the windows and doors are directly taken from actual sizes of the floor plan dimension by line tool or xline
3. If some of the dimension are cannot be done using reference then it can be done individually using offset tool or line tool
4. The text are created by using the ''MTEXT'' tool and copied for multiple text
5. Dimension are specified using ''DIMLINAR''
6. For lines and arrows ''qleader'' is used
