1.WARDROBE
Aim
To draw the elevation and details of a wardrobe given
Procedure
Firstly Units are set to mm that is decimel
In the command line type rec>2800, 2600 and type offset from the top of dimensions 12 and 488 mm.
In the command line type offset the offset from the side at the distance of 608.75 and 365 .
In the command line type L and by increasing the transparency to create wall surface by using hatch give the hatch and give scale 20.
In the command line type q leader to mention the annotations
The command prompt type rectangle > 630 x2800
The command prompt type rectangle 2800 X 2600 With the help of line command drawers and cabinets are created .
In the command prompt type rectangle and dimensions of 520 x 630, 1180 x 630 ,900x630 This is repeated 2 times.
using line commands, the next of the lines are drawn
Use layer option and choose different colors

4. COLUMN DETAILS
Aim
To draw the column details with rebars sizes
Procedure
Open Auto Cad and set it to imperial ,as the drawing is in feet and inches.Set the limits -zoom all
Drawing P1: Column of size 24" x24" having 4 bars of 25mm dia and 12 bars of 16mm diameter and connected by 8mm diameter stirrups.
Create rectangle by rectangle command with dimensions 24" x24" .
By offset command create an offset of 0.5" to show the column outline.
Explode the inner rectangle so that the lines can be selected seperately.
Drawing reinforcement for P1: Draw circle with tan -tan radius method with tangent as the two sides of column and 0.5" radius .
As the four corners are having 25mm dimaeter bars, mirror the circles by command "MI" and drawing horizontal and vertical planes.
Drawing 16mm dimaeter 12 bars
Using divide command divide the leftmost line of the column by command "DIV" - enter the no: of segments as 4
By Command "DDPTYPE" seelct the point so that it is visible
Now create a circle with centre radius method with radius as 0.31"(16mm dia bars) and place the side of circle with centre of point.
Copy the two circle and place it in the position of the points
Mirror the 16mm diameter bars by drawing vertical mirror plane. and delete the points created.
Again divide the horizontal lines into 4 segments and copy the circle and place the side of circle in the centre of the point.
Connect the bars by 8mm stirrups for that draw line with line command connecting the 16mm diameter bars.
Draw the rings by arc- 3 point method , and mirroring it.
Fillet the corners of the colum outline with filet radius as 0.5".
Use donout command to fillthe circle Command "DO" - specify the inner dimaeter as 0 and outer diameter as 0.1" for 4 corner reinforcement and 0.62" for inside reinforcement -specify centre of the donout , it gets filled.
Mark "a" for in between reinforcemnet to indicate it as 25mm diameter by singleline text with text height 2".
Similarly repeat with its respective dimensions for P2 and P3.
Result
Thus the given column details for P1,P2,P3 are drawn


5. RAFT FOUNDATION
Aim
To draw the given raft foundation
Procedure
Open Auto Cad and set imperial units and change the units as architectural so that the dimensions are in fractions of feet and inches.
Drawing grid lines:
Draw an vertical line with construction line Command "XL-V ".
Offset the vertical line by offset command with offset distance 5'9" ,2'0" ,7'0", 4'0",4'6" , 5'-71/2".
Draw an horizontal line with constrcution line Command "XL-H".
Offset the horizontal lines by offset command with offset distance 5'-71/2" ,3'-71/2" ,4'9" ,5'-101/2",5'-71/2",3'9",5'9", 13'10-1/2",10'41/2".
Change the line type of these lines as ISO dash by clicking on line type and selecting load from the dialogue box and make ISo dash current linetype.
Mark the horizontal lines from 1 to 9
Mark the vertical lines from A to G.
Draw the bottom thickness of wall as 9" with the grid line at the centre.
A thickness of 41/2" is drawn from the grid line inside the left vertical grid line.
For Column: From the 41/2" thickness line draw a rectangle of 24" x24".by "REC" command giving the base point and giving dimensions as 24" and 24" and place the rectangle in the required position.
Explode the rectangle by commnad "EX" .
From the column offset 2' vertically and 3' horizontally
By fillet tool with fillet radius zero join the lines drawn to make the mat.
Hatch the column by command "H" and selecting "ANS 137" and giving scale of 20".
From the grid point D draw an offset of 9-1/2"
Create rectangle by selecting base point as 9-1/2" line and giving dimensions as 24" and 9" .
Delete the 9-1/2" line
Explode the rectangle and give offset with a distance of 2'6" vertical lines on both sides and 3' horizontal line.
Fillet both the corners with fillet radius as zero.
Hatch the columns by command "H" . "ANS137" scale 20
Similarly do this for each column with its respective dimensions
Then finally texts are written using command 'DT'
Then the dimensions are marked 'DIMLINEAR'
Result
Thus the given raft foundation is drawn in autocad
