  • D= 1200 X 2100.
  • D1= 900 X 2100.
  • D2= 750 X 2100.

Windows (DIMENSIONS ARE IN MM)

  • W= 1000 X 1200.
  • W1= 1500 X 1200.
  • W2= 1200 X 1050.
  • W3= 180 X 1200.
  • W4= 600 X 1050.
  • Windows are drawn by using line command.
  • Section lines are drawing by using layer and changing the layer type.
  • Hatch- For hatching the columns type hatch in command box- open settings -select pattern- select pattern as AIR-CONC- select global scale factor as 0.7.
  • Dimension- For drawing dimension using dimension tool in the ribbon.
  • Text- For naming of plan use text in ribbon in that use multiline text and keep the height of text as 220.

GROUND FLOOR PLAN-

FIRST FLOOR PLAN-

STEPS FOR DRAWING SECTION AA-

  • Rotate the entre plan drawn earlier in the 90 degrees direction to draw the section
  • Select x line command and take the projectors of the rotated plan in the downward manner.
  • Take the projections of all internal walls of 150 mm and eternal walls of 230mm.
  • Draw a base line to draw the section BB.
  • Offset 450mm from the ground level.
  • Offset 3000 for ground floor.
  • Offset 3000 for second floor.
  • Offset 1100 for parapet wall.

  • Draw the chajjas and windows as per the sizes considered and standards.
  • Draw the railing of staircase in dash manner from the layers and change the layer to ACADISO03W100.
  • Thickness of slab is 125mm.
  • Offset 125 below the line of first floor of 3000.
  • Give the dimensions by dim linear or dim continue command.
  • Select the multiline text for naming of the section.

STEPS FOR DRAWING ELEVATION-

  • Select x line command and extend the lines from the plan in the downward manner to create projections.
  • Offset 450mm from the ground level for plinth
  • Offset 3000 for ground floor.
  • Offset 1100 for parapet wall.
  • Offset 2450 from terrace level for mumty.
  • Draw the chajjas and windows as per the sizes considered and standards.
