Creating a Residence Layout, Seating plan, Toilet and Utility room plan using AutoCad

Aim : To draw the layout of a residence plan.

Commands :

1. XL- V OR XL -H

2. OFFSET

3. FILLET

4. EXTEND

5. TRIM

Procedure :

First create a new Autocad file with imperial settings.

Mke sure that in units the type is " Engineering" and also set the precision

Set the limits with command specify the left corner points and right corner points and enter zoom all

Draw construction lines by command XL - v for vertical and XL-H for horizontal

Drawing bed :

Take offset of both construction lines of 9" by using command "o" give offset distance as 0.9 in the command box.

Then take the offset of 11'7.5" to the +x direrction and offset of 12' -y direction so that the room is formed.

again, give offset to the both lines with 4.5" so that the wall thickness is created.

Trim off the unwanted lines.

Drawing bed 2 :

Give offset from the wall thickness of bed 1 towards +x direction of 11'6".

Offset the 9" to create wall on right side

Extend the line of 12' from bed 1 towards this line.

Command EX select the line to where it should be extended 4.5" offset line of bed 2.

Trim off the rest of lines

DRAWING TOILET 1 :

Offset 4'6" downwards then also offset 4.5" wall

Extend the left side wall towards the line 4'6" and the wall

From that line offset 8'3" towards +x direction and offset the wall of 4'5" also

Trim offset the unwanted lines

DRAWING TOILET 2 :

Extend the wall thickness of bed 2 to the 4'6" line

Offset a distance of 8'1.5" towards -x direction and also 4'5" wall thickness

Trim unwanted lines

DRAWING DINING AND LIVING ROOM :

Give offset of 11' from the wall of toilet and also the wall of 9"

Exxtened the left wall towards the 11' line and 9" line.

Use fillet to join this line and the wall of toilet 2

Give an offset of 8'7.5" to understand the partition between the dining and living

Trim off the wall thickness of dining and offset it as 4.5"

DRAWING KITCHEN :

Give an offset from the dining wall of 6'8" and give an offset of 9" for the wall thickness

Extend the left wall towards this line

Give an offset of 11" towards +x direction and offset the wall thickness as 9"

DRAWING PARKING AND STAIRCASE ROOM :

Draw offset of 12'6" to draw the parking then give offset of 9" towards inside

Give offset 13'9.5" from the living wall towards dowwards.

Extend both side lines towards this line

extend outer wall of kitchen so that the stair case room is defined.

DRAWING STAIR CASE:

Given : thread:1'

riser:6"

give a wall thickness of 9" for the staircase room.

give an offset of 1.96" to show the handrail

draw offset of 1' tread to draw the stairs in plan view

draw 9 offsets as there are 9 risers for 8 steps.

for that select the lines and change the line type to ISO Dash

Mark the direction of stairs.

DRAWING DOORS :

Trim all the door openings with their respective width D1-3', D2-2'6", D3-3'3"

For kitchen, trim the lines retaining a distance of 6'4" from right side of kitchen

draw doors creating hinge of 0.5" from the midpoint of the one hing and other the midpoint of another hinge

PLACING THE WINDOWS :

For living take an offset of1'3" this is where the windows starts

using line command draw a line of 6' from the center of offset line inside the wall thickness.

Draw windows wherever necessary: from middle portion of a wall draw a line from midpoint of that line give the distance

Trim extra lines.

DRAWING THE KITCHEN SLAB AND CUPBOARDS :

OFF a distance of 2' to make the kitchen slab.

Draw the cupboard by creating a rectangle command ,dimensions 5' x 2'

copy the rec to another bedroom also.

PLACING EACH COMPONENT IN LAYERS:

FROM the layer property create new layer create 8 layers each for

• wall
• door
• window
• stairs
• kitchen
• slab
• cupboard

name each layer as above and give different colours

select the objects and place it in respective layers

RESULT :

THE LAYOUT OF RESIDENCE PLAN IS DRAWN.

AIM: TO DRAW THE SEATING PLAN FOR AN OUTDOOR CANOPY.

COMMANDS:

• CIRCLE
• Offset
• Fillet
• Extend
• Trim

PROCEDURE:

Creating circles:

Select metric units as the dimensions is in mm

Draw a circle with command C select a center point and give the radius as 1398mm.

Draw a circle with same center with radius 452mm.

Draw lines along with the diameter of the bigger circle’

Drawing chairs:

Draw a rectangle with command REC giving dimensions as 400 mm and 200mm

Draw an arc with start center and end method with the end points and center of the side of rectangle.

Fillet the corner of rectangle by 50mm.

Command O give the fillet radius as 50mm and select the two lines and trim off the unwanted line.

Move the chair and place it such as a way that it touches the offset 200mm circle. By using command M select the base point and move it .

Mirror the chair to the opposite side command MI select the base point and draw the reference line where we need to mirror

Rotate the chair and move it so that the chair in left side is created command RO select the base point and rotate to desired angle

Delete the lines and offset circles

RESULT:

THE SEATING PLAN FOR AN OUTDOOR CANOPY IS DRAWN.

AIM:

TO DRAW PLAN FOR THE TOILETS AND UTILITIES ROOM.

COMMANDS USED:

• XL-V OR XL-H
• Offset
• Fillet
• Extend
• Trim
• Design center

PROCEDURE :

First create a new auto cad files with metric units

Set the limits with command LIM specify the left corner points and right corner points and enter zoom all.

Draw construction lines by command XL-V for vertical and XL-H for horizontal

Trim left amd bottom positions of construction lines

Drawing utility room:

Draw the offset of 300mm from the left side of vertical construction line and an offset of 150mm from the bottom horizontal construction line.

Draw an offset of 2100 mm upwards and offset of 1900 mm towards the right side and give the wall thickness of 150mm and 300mm respectively.

Drawing DH toilet:

Draw an offset of 1700 mm upwards and wall thickness of 300 mm as it was the extended wall and a room is formed

Trim off the rest of construction lines.

Creating openings for doors:

From toilet after offset of 100 mm give another offset of 832mm and trim to form the door opening by creating 12.5mm hinge and then draw circle to the midpoint of other side of wall

Trim off the extra lines.

Draw the window of 728 mm in the utility room and a ventilator of 631 mm in the toilet room.

Draw the duct shown behind the toilet room by offset at a distance of 201 mm and 150mm wall thickness upwards.

Extended the wall of toilets towards it and offset 402mm offset wall thickness as 150mm

Drawing utility symbols:

In the command line enter DC and select en-us-home utility select the symbols by dragging them in AutoCAD screen and place where ever required.

RESULT:

THE PLAN FOR THE TOILET AND UTILITES ROOM IS DRAWN.
