3. Kitchen layout:

Aim: to draw the kitchen layout.

Procedure:

• First, we draw the Below counter plan:
• We create a wall by drawing a rectangle of 4300X3200mm and draw offsets of 230mm as wall thickness towards outside.
• Now we draw the Left cabinet and fridge:

• Give an offset of 450mm from the 900mm offset and again offset a distance of 900mm.
• Offset a distance of 450mm three times from the previous offset.
• From the right side offset 35mm for hinge and rest distance will be 630mm which shows the top of cabinet.
• Hob is drawn by rectangle and circle tool in the plan of third cabinet.
• Draw the snack counter by giving offset distance of 700mm from the left side of wall and 900mm from the 600mm width of cabinet and fillet with 10m radius.
• Now draw the above counter plan:
• Copy the wall of the below counter plan.
• Draw the right side counter:
• Draw a width of 350mm from the wall to inside offset 20mm.
• Offset a distance of 35mm from the left side of wall.
• Now offset 450mm for the top of the cabinet.
• Offset 900mm 3 times for next cabinets.
• For the second 900mm offset,draw a rectangle anf froma distance of 1650mm from the left side of wall.draw circle for the chimney.
• Now draw the left side counter:
• From the left side of wall take 35mm offset.
• Now draw 600mm offset as width from the horizontal wall.
• Draw 10mm offset to show the door.
• From the 35mm hinge offset 965mm to the right A11.
• From that offset 600mm for the next cabinet A12.
• Take offset distance of 35mm from the right.

• Insert the text by using multiline text of 75mm size and style-roman.shx.
• Dimension all the object using dimension tool bar.

Result: Kitchen layout is drawn.

4. Column details:

Aim: to draw the column details

Procedure: set the units to imperial as drawing is in feet and inches and set the limits zoom all.

1. a) For column P1 size of 24"X24" having 25mm dia reinforcement at 4 corners and 16 mm dia 12 reinforcement bars in between connected by 8mm dia stirrup.

• Now we draw a rectangle of size 24"X24" using the rectangle command using dimensions in the command box.
• By using offset command: give an offset distance of 0.5" which will be the cover of concrete.
• Explode the inner rectangle using explode command.
• Now we draw the reinforcements:
• By using the circle command: selecting tan tan radius circle and give the radius of 0.5".
• As the four corners are having 25mm diameter bars mirror the circles in both the directions.
• Using divide command divide the left line into 4 segments and type "DDPTYPE" to make the points visible.
• Now create a circle with centre radius as 0.31" and place the side of the circle in the centre of the point.
• Copy the two circle and place it in the position of the points.
• Now mirror the 16mm dia bars by vertical mirror plane.
• Repeat the same process for the horizontal line for drawing 16mm bars.
• Connect the bars by 8mm stirrups by using line command.
• Now using the donut command fill the circles.
• Specify the inner dia as 0 and outer dia as 0.8" for the corner reinforcement and 1" for the corner reinforcement and 0.62" for inside reinforcement.
• Mark "a" for in between reinforcement to indicate it as 25mm diameter.
• Create the column to indicate the size of column, grade of concrete and reinforcement details using multiline text with text height as 2" and text style as txt.shx.

1. b) For column P2 size of 24"X24" having 16mm dia reinforcement bars connected by 8mm dia stirrup.

• Now we draw a rectangle of size 24"X24" using the rectangle command using dimensions in the command box.
• By using offset command: give an offset distance of 0.5" which will be the cover of concrete.
• Explode the inner rectangle using explode command.
• Now we draw the reinforcements:
• By using the circle command: selecting tan tan radius circle and give the radius of 0.31".
• As the four corners are having 25mm diameter bars mirror the circles in both the directions.
• Using divide command divide the left line into 4 segments and type "DDPTYPE" to make the points visible.
• Copy the circle created such that the end of circle is in centre of the point.
• 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 by using line comand.
• Now using the donut command fill the circles.
• Specify the inner dia as 0 and outer dia as 0.31" specify the centre of the donut and it gets filled.
• Create the column to indicate the size of column,grade of concrete and reinforcement details using multiline text with text height as 2" and text style as txt.shx.

1. c) For column P3 size of 24"X24" having 8 bars of 25mm dia and 8 bars of 20mm dia connected by 8mm dia stirrup.

• Now we draw a rectangle of size 24"X24" using the reactangle command using dimensions in the command box.
• By using offset command: give an offset distance of 0.5" which will be the cover of concrete.
• Explode the inner rectangle using explode command.
• Now we draw the reinforcements:
• By using the circle command: selecting tan tan radius circle and give the radius of 0.5".
• As the four corners are having 25mm diameter bars mirror the circles in both the directions.
• Using divide command divide the left line into 4 segments and type "DDPTYPE" to make the points visible.
• Copy the 25mm diameter circle to the middle vertical and horizontal bars.
• Now create a circle of with centre if radius 0.39" and place the side of circle with centre of point.
• Copy the two circle and place it in the position of the rest of the points.
• Mirror the 20mm 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 by using line command.
• Now using the donut command fill the circles.
• Specify the inner dia as 0 and outer dia as 0.1" for 8 25mm reinforcement and 0.78" for rest of the 8 reinforcement specify the centre of the donut and it gets filled.
• Create the column to indicate the size of column,grade of concrete and reinforcement details using multiline text with text height as 2" and text style as txt.shx.

Result: All three column details are drawn.
