Creating a Layout, Section and Elevation with dimensions using AutoCad

TO CREATE A LAYOUT, SECTION AND ELEVATION WITH DIMENSIONS USING AUTOCAD

DIMENSIONSIONING IN AUTOCAD:

The Linear dimension tool measures horizontal or vertical distances. To create Linear dimensions click the points 1, then 2 to identify the element to be dimensioned. Click point 3 to locate the dimension line. The dimension distance will show the vertical or horizontal distance depending on whether you move your cursor in a horizontal or vertical direction when placing point 3.
The Aligned dimension tool measures the length along an object. To create an Aligned dimension click the points 1, then 2 to identify the element to be dimensioned. Click point 3 to locate the dimension line.
The Angular dimension tool measures an angle between two objects. To create an Angular dimension select object 1, and then object 2 to identify the elements creating the angle. Click point 3 to locate the dimension line.
The Arc Length dimension tool measures the length of an arc. To create an Arc Length dimension, select object 1 then click point 2 to place the dimension line.
The Radius dimension tool measures the radius of an arc or circle. To create a Radius dimension, select object 1 then, click point 2 to locate the dimension line.
The Diameter dimension tool measures the diameter of an arc or circle. To create a Diameter dimension, click object 1 then, click point 2 to locate the dimension line.

AIM: To create the paln and sections as given by using proper dimensions techniques and dimension styles

PROCEDURE: TO DRAW THE FLOOR PLAN

Setup the units and limits
The wall layout is drawn using rectangle command and enter the dimensions
Take an offset of 250 and draw an inner rectangle
Now draw all the required bedrooms, drawing, livilng and dinning rooms
Trim off the unwanted lines and required figure is obtained.
Now add columns of 250x350 in the necessary places and give hatch
The doors and windows of different sizes as per standards are drawn and placed in corect position
Now create different layers with required names and assign the properties
Add text and dimensions at the required place and completed figure is the floor plan.

TO DRAW THE SECTIONA-A:

Take the construction line command 'XL' and draw vertical lines in the required wall positions
Now a draw a horizontal line which is ground level and trim off the unwanted lines
Take an offset command and draw the floor heights with respective heights
Draw columns and place them in correct positions
Draw doors and windows with taken dimensions and place them
Now draw the stairs as given in picture
Draw the remainging objects present in the picture
Now add dimensions and texts and the section A-A is obtained

TO DRAW THE SECTIONB-B:

Now rotate the plan vertically and draw extension lines uisng 'XL' command in the wall positions and trimoff the unwanted lines
Draw a horizantal line which is the ground level
From ground level take different offsets and draw the floor heights
Draw columns and place them
Draw the required windows and balcony in the aligned palces with dimensions
Add text and dimensions and the figure is completed.

RESULT:

The plan and sections of the given figures are as follows
