Staircase Unit

  • Procedure :-
  • Click on AutoCAD application and open this application
  • Type QNEW in command bar and enter
  • Select default setting as Imperial ( feet and inches )
  • Press Enter
  • I have kept snap and grid setting off
  • Keep ortho on
  • Press UN and enter and set unit
  • Type – Engineering
  • Precision – 0’0.0”
  • Enter
  • Enter limit command in command bar and enter
  • Limits specify first left corner > 0,0
  • Limit specify upper right corner > 50’,50’
  • Enter
  • Press Z + enter, A + Enter
  • Take Xline command horizontal and vertical
  • Trim the negative coordinates
  • Take the offsets of both horizontal and vertical lines at 9.0”
  • Take the offset of outer xline in 43’6.5” at north direction
  • Take the offset of outer xline in 43’6.5” at north direction
  • Trim all the unwanted parts

  • Take the offset of side DC and side BC at 9.0” inside to show the wall thickness
  • Take offset one at 6’ and other at 13’9.5” from the inner side of side AB
  • And give offset of both side at 9” and one offset at 4.5”
  • Take offset of CD by keeping curser inside at 12’
  • And offset of that line at 4.5”
  • Again take offset of last offset drawn at 4’6”
  • Give offset of side AD at 11’7.5” for the partition of bendroom
  • Offest the last offset at 4.5”
  • Give offset of side AD at 8’3” and of side BC at 8’1.5” for the Toilet
  • Offest the last offsets at 4.5”
  • Give offset of side AD at 12’6” for the partition of Kitchen
  • Offest the last offset at 9” inside
  • Trim the unwanted parts
  • Leave the places for door according to dimensions provided in schedule i.e D1 = 3’, D2= 2’6”, D3= 3’3”
  • By using fillet and trim joint all the corner points of the wall as shown below

  • Give offsets as per dimensions as shown below

  • Give the text and dimensions as per respected drawing as shown below

  • To draw the bedroom door
  • Take a line parallel to wall at distance of 1”
  • And take offset of that line at 0.5”
  • Take a circle and draw as shown below

  • Trim the unwanted part
  • Then the D1 is ready
  • Similarly draw the other doors i.e D2 and D3 of size 2’6” and 3’3” as shown below

  • Cupboard are placed such as shown below by assuming size as 5'7.4" X 1'9.7"

  • Kitchen ota is drawn by taking offset at 2’ and unwanted porion is trimmed as shown below

  • Click on layer properties
  • The following image shows the layes I have choosen

  • As per above layer colour select the unit and select its layer
  • It will automatically select the colour given by me
  • Click on line type
  • Load
  • Select line type as ACAD_ISO02W100
  • And press ok
  • And select the stairs which have to shown dotted and select line type as ACAD_ISO2W100 as shown below

  • I have kept all the layers on, all the drawing freez, and all the layers are unlock and colours are given as per above pic.
  • Selected all the units as per layer
  • The layout of Residence plan is ready
  • Result :-

- For Bedrooms and Toilet :

- For Remaining parts :

- For Door Schedule :

- For the total Residential Plan :

2. Outdoor Seating with Canopy :

  • Aim :- To Sketch the seating plan for an outdoor canopy by Assuming the dimensions for the seating.

  • Introduction : This outdoor seating with canopy contains one round table of radius 452mm and four chars
  • Procedure :-
  • Click on AutoCAD application and open this application
  • Type QNEW in command bar and enter
  • Select default setting as Metric
  • Press Enter
  • I have kept snap and grid setting off
  • Keep ortho on
  • Press UN and enter and set unit
  • Type – Decimal
  • Units to inserted content - milimeter
  • Precision – 0
  • Enter
  • Enter limit command in command bar and enter
  • Limits specify first left corner > 0,0
  • Limit specify upper right corner > 2000,2000
  • Enter
  • Press Z + enter, A + Enter
  • Keep all the object snaps on
  • Take circle command
  • Specify centre of the circle as randomly
  • Specify radius of that circle = 1398 and enter
  • Take again circle command
  • Specify centre as the same taken before
  • Specify radius as 452 as shown below

  • Now, we have to draw chair
  • Take rectangle of size 600 X 200
  • Enter
  • Take any two corners of rectangle and fillet those corner of radius 50mm
  • Take arc command
  • Select- Start, End, Direction
  • As per convenience arc is drawn by considering remaining two corners
  • Trim the middle line in arc and rectangle as shown below

  • Take offset command
  • Specify offset distance as 20
  • Select object as arc
  • And give the offset to the last offset at distance 80
  • And by using line command close this arcs
  • By using rectangle command draw the two rectangle of size 80 X 164 and put these rectangle in a proper position as shown below

  • Take copy command
  • Take 4 copies of this above chair Out of these three copies
  • Out of the three copies
  • By taking rotate command and base point as centre of chair
  • Rotate one chair at 90
  • 2nd at 180
  • 3rd rotate at 270
  • Move all these chairs and keep in proper position as shown in result

  • Result :-

3. Aim :- To Sketch the part plan for the toilet and utilities room

  • Select default setting as Metric
  • Press Enter
  • I have kept snap and grid setting off
  • Keep ortho on
  • Press UN and enter and set unit
  • Type – Decimal
  • Units to inserted content - milimeter
  • Precision – 0
  • Enter
  • Enter limit command in command bar and enter
  • Limits specify first left corner > 0,0
  • Limit specify upper right corner > 2500,5000
  • Enter
  • Press Z + enter, A + Enter
  • Take Xline command horizontal and vertical
  • Trim the negative coordinates
  • Take the offsets of horizontal xline at 300mm inside
  • Take the offsets of vertical xline at 150mm inside
  • Take the offset of innerr vertical xline in 1900mm and to that offset give offset at 150mm
  • Take the offset of innerr vertical xline at a distances of 2100mm, 2250mm, 3950mm, 4250mm, 4451mm, 4751mm as shown below

  • Provide appropriate offsets to leave space for doors
  • For D4 = 832 , D5 = 828
  • By using offset command provide proper spacing for windows and ventilator
  • For W9 = 728, V = 431
  • Also provide duct of size 402 X 201 as shown below

  • Provide window line and ventilator line
  • By using line and circle command sketch the door as shown below

  • Trim the unwanted parts
  • Similarly draw the toilet door also
  • Give the dimensions as shown in fig
  • Give the texts as per fig
  • Click on layer properties
  • The following image shows the layes I have choosen

  • As per above layer colour select the unit and select its layer
  • It will automatically select the colour given by me
  • I have kept all the layers on, all the drawing freez, and all the layers are unlock and colours are given as per above pic.
  • Selected all the units as per layer
