v) Specify next point (@-9",0)
vi) Close .
vii) Take the offset from all side as 1.5" (40 mm cover)
viii) Show the main reinforcement and longitudinal reinforcement as shown in fig . (12 - 16mm)

For C3 -
i) Repeat the same procedure
ii) Give the size as 9" x 21"
iii) No of bars will be same . (12 - 16mm)

Step 3) Detail of Reinforcement of Column C2 -
i) USe the Line tool As per given in note .
ii) Specify base point for rg (5,5)
iii) Specify next point (@9",0)
iv) Specify next point (@0 .24")
v) Specify next point (@-9",0)
vi) Close .
vii) Take the offset from all side as 1.5" (40 mm cover)
viii) Show the main reinforcement and longitudinal reinforcement as shown in fig (4 - 12mm) and ( 8-20mm)

Step 4 ) Detail of Reinforcement of Column C2a -
i) USe the Line tool As per given in note .
ii) Specify base point for rg (5,5)
iii) Specify next point (@9",0)
iv) Specify next point (@0 .10")
v) Specify next point (@-9",0)
vi) Close .
vii) Take the offset from all side as 1.5" (40 mm cover)
viii) Show the main reinforcement and longitudinal reinforcement as shown in fig . (8 - 16mm)

Step 5) Make a chart as per given in fig .
i) Draw a table using line tool .
ii) Give Command DText .
iii) Select Font style Roman .shx
iv) Select Text hright - 8"
v) Justify - Left .


Draw a chart with the help of this settings .
Note - Scale the detail reinforcement of all columns to fit in the table
Command Scale - Specify base point and Give Scale factor 3.
