2. Aim: To Draw the floor plan as shown in the Figure.
Introduction:To draw the floor plan as shown in the Figure by using the proper drafting tools to sketch the plan.
Do not hatch or draw the furniture.
You need to draw the floor plan with the following:
All dimensions are in mm.
Given Dimensions
- Walls (Exterior and Interior)
Wall Thickness: Exterior Wall- 230mm, Interior Wall: 150 mm (Wherever Required)
- Doors and Windows: Assume the size of the doors and window.
2.1 Stairs: Tread-300mm, Riser-150mm
- Insert Text wherever required
- Insert the dimensions using proper dimension techniques

3.Aim: To Create the Kitchen Layout as shown in the Figure
Introduction: To create the Kitchen Layout as shown in the Figure and using proper dimension techniques to dimension the kitchen layout and inserting text wherever required. All dimensions are in mm.
To draw follow the steps below:
Ortho on (F8)
Draw a line of 4760
Draw an offset from the line ata offset distance of 3660
Close the line from both sides
Command OFFSET
Draw an offset from all the corner line at a offset distance of 230 to create a wall around
Command OFFSET
Draw an opening at centre of the left side of 800 to create a door
Command OFFSET
Drawing two openings for window at right side of 575
Command COPY
Copy whole figure using ortho mode at just side of the 1st kitchen plan to make same kitchen plan of same dimensions but in this the inner furniture is different
