Creating a Layout, Section and Elevation with dimensions using AutoCad

AIM:- To draw the floor plans and sections using the proper dimension techniques and dimension styles to document the project.

INTRODUCTION:

• Plan and Sections are different types of drawings used by architects to graphically represent a building design and construction. A plan drawing is a drawing on a horizontal plane showing a view from above.
• An Elevation drawing is drawn on a vertical plane showing a vertical depiction.
• A section drawing is also a vertical depiction but one that cuts through space showing what lies within.

PROCEDURE:

STEPS FOR DRAWING PLAN :

• Open AutoCad and enter UN (Units command) in the command box and select type as decimal and set precision of decimal as O.
• Select X line command and draw horizontal line and vertical line. Trim the unwanted lines.
• Now select offset command and give an offset of 250mm to both horizontal and vertical line drawn by X line.
• Give the offsets as follows in the X direction
• Offset 3100 for bedrom.
• Offset 125 for internal wall Offset 2250 for kitchen drawing room / dining room.
• Offset 125 for internal wall
• Offset 1250 for both toilet
• Offset 250 for external wall.
• Give the offsets as follows in the X direction.
• Offset 3100 for bedroom.
• Offset 125 for internal wall
• Offset 3225 for bedroom Offset 250 for wall on both sides of stars.
• Offset 250 for treads. Offset 1200 for landing of staircase.
• Offset 2400 for width of staircase.
• Offset 2250 for kitchen dining bedroom.

• Offset 1000 for veranda.
• Windows are drawn by using line command.
• Section lines are drawing by using layer and changing the layer type
• Hatch-For hatching the columns type hatch in command box- open settings -select pattern- select pattern as AIR-CONC-select global scale factor as 0.7.
• Dimension- For drawing dimension using dimension tool in the ribbon.
• Text- For naming of plan use text in ribbon in that use multiline text and keep the height of text as 220.

RESULTS:

STEPS FOR DRAWING SECTION A-A

• Select x line command and extend the lines from the plan in the downward manner to create projections.
• Offset 150mm from the ground level.
• Offset 2450 for ground floor.
• Offset 2850 for second floor.
• Offset 2850 for second floor.
• Offset 2850 for third floor.
• Offset 1000 for parapet wall.
• Offset 2500 from terrace level of mumty.
• Offset 450 from mumty for parapet wall of mumty.
• Offset 600 and offset 1200 for O.T.H.

• For drawing of staircase offset 1250 for tread and offset 143.75 for rise of staircase.
• Offset 125 below floor level for slab.
• Draw the changes and windows as per the sizes considered and standards.
• Draw the railing of staircase in dash manner from the layers.

• Give the dimensions by dim linear or dim continue command.
• Select the multiline text for naming of the section.

RESULTS:

STEPS FOR DRAWING SECTION B-B

• Select x line command and take the projectors of the rotated plan in the downward manner.
• Take the projections of all internal walls of 125 mm and external walls of 250 mm.
• Draw a base line to draw the section B-B.
• Offset 150 from base line.
• Offset 2450 for ground floor.
• Offset 2850 for first floor.
• Offset 2850 for second floor.
• Offset 2850 for third floor.
• Offset 1000 for parapet wall.
• Thickness of slab is assumed to be 125 mm.

• Offset 125 from each floor in downward manner.
• Dimensions- use dim linear or dim continuous for giving the dimensions.
• Draw the windows as desired by using the line command.
