Creation of Column Schedule and Drawing Template using AutoCad

1. COLUMN SCHEDULE

Aim

To create the column schedule given.

Procedure

• Create rectangle of 60' x20 ' ,explode it .
• Divide the 60' into 10' columns nad again divide each 10' to 5' by using offset command .
• Command "O" - select the left side line and give offset distance as 10' first and for the second as 5'.
• Create row at top and bottom of 2' and 4' respectively by offset command .
• Command "O" - select the top line and give distance as 2' again command "O" -select the bottom line and give offset distance as 4'.
• Trim off the unecessary lines
• Enter the text in the table by using singleline text from the text drop down menu
• Specify the point of text- specify text height as 8" -text agle as 0 degree
• To change the style of text Command "ST" ,a dialogue box apperas and select the font name as "romans.shx"
• Then insert all the text or copy the text created and edit it to the required text in respective rows and colums
• Give the heading as column shedule
• Then draw the column in the separate empty space as per the dimensions
• Then move the column and place it in the specified box

Result

Thus the given schedule is sketched and the details are noted in the table

2. WINDOW SCHEDULE

Aim

To create the given window schedule in autocad

Procedure

By using line command draw a rectangle of length 60' and width 20'

Divide the length 60' into 6 parts and 5 lines 10' each

Divide horizontally as first line as 8' and other four as 13' each

Select single line from the text drop down menu or type the command "DT"

Specify start point of text : specify the point where we need to start the text

Specify text height - give it as 8"

Specify rotation angle of text - give it as 0 degree ( as we need the text in horizontal direction)

Type the text we need to insert ,then press enter.

If we need to change the style of text ,Command :"ST" - select the font ,here I have seleced "romans.shx"

If we need to change the properties of text ,select the text then right click -properties ,we can edit the properties we want.

Enter "TYPE" , "WIDTH" , "SILL" , "NO" ,"LOCATION" in the 1st column and "W1 A ,W2 in the rows.

Similarly repeat the same for each text and the box

Result

Thus the given window schedule is created

3. Drawing Template

Aim

To create the given drawing template

Procedure

Create the left side of table by creating rectangle of 40 x 15 dimensions.

Copy this rectangle and place it next to it with snap on ,copy 2 of them.

Command "CO" select the object, select the base point ,select the point where we need to place the rectangle.

Divide the 2nd column of table into two and the 3rd column into 5

Command "O" offset distance -3' seelct the object and create the rows.

Also divide the 3rd column into 4 each of 10' by command "O" (offset)and trim the unwanted line by "TR"

Select multi line from drop down list of text - create the text box , then type the data given

Text height is given as 8"

Result

Thus the given drawing template is created in autocad.

4. Drawing Schedule

To create the given list of drawing schedule

Procedure

With the rectangle tool draw the table outline of dimension 102'x83'

Draw the columns by offset command "O" with a distance of 10' ,32',60' respectively from the left side.

Create the rows by offseting distance of 3' ,5' and 3' from the top side for the headings.

Trim off the unwanted lines.

With multiline option from the text drop down menu ,create a text box in the 1st row and type" project" with text height 1'-8" and style as romans .shx

In the 2nd row ,using multiline text type " LIST OF ARCHITECTURAL DRAWING" with text height of 2'-1" and same style.

In 3rd row type "NO: ,"DRAWING NO:" ,DESCRIPTION" in respective columns with multiline text of height 1'-8" and same style.

With offset command"O" create rows of height 3' ,offset distance 3'. ,create 24 rows

Select multiline text and create the text box ,with text height 1'-8" type the data given in each rows and columns.

In the No: column , type the numbers from 1 to 24

In Drawing no: column type the first entity ,then copy Command"CO" - select the object- seelct "array" ,then enter the number of items in array as 23 ,then click on the point where we need to place the array

Select each text and edit it to the given text

Result

The given list of drawing schedule is created

5. BEAM DETAIL

Aim

To create the beam detail as shown

Procedure

Draw cross-section of beam with height 4' and thickness 9" ( wall thickness)

With command "L" , draw a line of 4' in + y direction an 9" in + x direction and 4' downwards and close.

From top give an offset of 9" ,which marks the ground level, Command "O" - select the top portion -give the offset distance as 9" and extend the grould level line.

Then give an offset of 3" from 9" line Command "O"- select the 9" line - give offset distance as 3" ,which indicate the bottom level of concrete.

Hatch the portion of brick and concrete and trim off the line of ground level from the cross-section of the beam

Select multi learder from annotate tab and write the text with text height of 2"

Type the text " TOP LEVEL +9" " at the top of 9" line ,type "GROUND LEVEL +/00 " at the 3" ground line

Type "BRICKWORK" indicating the part of brickwork using multileader.

With multiline text from the text dropdown type "SECTION 1" at bottom of the figure at 2" height.

Result

Thus the given beam detail is created
