Problem 1 :
Aim : To create a column schedule using Autocad
(Some dimensions are assumed)
Procedure :
- Set units to engineering
- Set units in dimstyle to engineering
- Enter style in command and set font name romans.shx and height 8"
- Justify text should be left
- Enter command line L
- Using line command draw a rectangle size of 90'x45'
- Enter offset command and enter offset distance of 10'
- Draw lines at top and bottom of rectangle with 10' distance taken from 90' line (towards inside)
- Draw 11 lines using offset with distance 7.5' each taken from 45' line
- Trim off lines and name 1st column as COL. NOS., 2nd as C1, 3rd as C1a, 4th as C2, 5th as C2a and 6th as C3 (using Text command and specifying a point with rotation angle as zero) as shown below (take font type as romans.shx and font height 8". Take text justify as left)
- Divide one sub column into 3 rows in each main column (each row offset distance is 8.3') as shown below
- Now using text command write 1st column of "COL. NOS" as TERRACE TO MUMTY with rotation angle 90 degree
- In 2nd column of "COL. NOS" using text command write 1st row as SIZE, 2nd row as MIX and 3rd row as MAIN REINF. and at bottom write STRPS.
- Similary using text command mention size row of each column such as :
C1 Size = 9" x 24", C1a Size = 9" x 24", C2 Size = 9" x 24", C2a Size = 9" x 10", C3 Size = 9" x 21" - Using text command mention mix of each column as M25
- Using text command mention main reinforcement (in the MAIN REINF row) of each column such as :
`C1 = 4-20phi , 6-12phi (a)`
`C1a = 12-16 phi`
`C2 = 8-20phi (a) , 4-12phi`
`C2a = 8-16phi`
`C3 = 12-16phi` - Using text command mention strips row of each column as `phi8`@3" and 8" CRS ( 1 SET of 3 STRPS)
- Now draw a rectangle of size 6'X15' in 2nd column of C1 and draw another rectangle inside 1st rectangle by taking offset of 6"
- Draw a mid line to the inner rectangle and draw another two lines above and below of midline by taking offset of 1"
- Draw another two lines above and below of mid line by taking offset of 3.5' from it
- Remove midline
- Now draw a circle of 3" at every corner (as per mentioned in the diagram) and hatch it
- Draw lines of 8" tangent (angle of lines varies from 45 degree, 225 degree, 315 degree) to 3 circles as per mentioned in the diagram of column C1
- Mention text letter "a" as per diagram
- Similary in 2nd column of C1a draw a rectangle of size 6'X15' and draw another rectangle inside 1st rectangle by taking offset of 6"
- Draw a mid line to the inner rectangle and draw another two lines above and below of midline by taking offset of 10"
- Draw another two lines above and below of mid line by taking offset of 4' from it
- Remove midline
- Now draw a circle of 3" at every corner (as per mentioned in the diagram) and hatch it
- Draw lines of 8" tangent (angle of lines varies from 45 degree, 225 degree, 315 degree) to 3 circles as per mentioned in the diagram of column C1a
- Similary in 2nd column of C2 draw a rectangle of size 6'X15' and draw another rectangle inside 1st rectangle by taking offset of 6"
- Draw a mid line to the inner rectangle and draw another two lines above and below of midline by taking offset of 10"
- Draw another two lines above and below of mid line by taking offset of 4' from it
- Remove midline
- Now draw a circle of 3" at every corner (as per mentioned in the diagram) and hatch it
- Draw lines of 8" tangent (angle of lines varies from 45 degree, 225 degree, 315 degree) to 3 circles as per mentioned in the diagram of column C2
- Now draw a square of size 5' each side and draw another square inside first rectangle by taking offset of 4"
- Connect midpoints of inner square
- Draw lines of 8" tangent (angle of lines varies from 45 degree, 225 degree, 315 degree) to 2 circles as per mentioned in the diagram of column C2a
- In 2nd column of C3 draw a rectangle of size 6'X15' and draw another rectangle inside 1st rectangle by taking offset of 6"
- Draw a mid line to the inner rectangle and draw another two lines above and below of midline by taking offset of 10"
- Draw another two lines above and below of mid line by taking offset of 4' from it
- Remove midline
- Now draw a circle of 3" at every corner (as per mentioned in the diagram) and hatch it
- Draw lines of 8" tangent (angle of lines varies from 45 degree, 225 degree, 315 degree) to 3 circles as per mentioned in the diagram of column C3
- Change line weight to 0.30mm to the inner sections of all rectangles and square

(Some dimensions are assumed)
Procedure :
- Set units to engineering
- Set units in dimstyle to engineering
- Draw a rectangle using line command of length of 100' by moving cursor towards right, 36' upwards, 100' left and 36' downwards
- Using offset command with offset distance 20' divide the rectangle into 5 columns
- Again using offset command with offset distance 6' divide the rectangle into 6 rows
- Using text command with height of text as 1' and 8" for fractional number, justify as left and line weight as 0.15mm, mention the text according to columns and rows given below:

Problem 3 :
Aim : To create drawing template using AutoCad
(Some dimensions are assumed)
Procedure :
- Set units to engineering
- Set units in dimstyle to engineering
- Draw a rectangle of 114'-1" X 13'-2"
- Draw another rectangle inside first rectangle of with offset distance 5"
- Using Multi line text command write a text with text height 8", text style romans.shx and justify as left
- Now create 4 columns inside the rectangle.
1st column of size : 49'-7" X 12'-6"

Notes :
1. All levels given are finished floor levels unless mentioned otherwise.
2. Dimensions are not to be scaled.
3. Contractors must verify all dimensions at site before commencement at any work.
4. Contractors must notify the architect/PM of all discrepancies in the drawings.
5. This drawing is the propety of Skill Lync. - In 2nd column two rows are created with 32" offset and in the first row write using text command : Project : Pearl villa and in the second row write using text command : Architects
- Now 3rd, 4th columns are divided into 5 rows with offset distance 32"
- In the 3rd column using text command mention the following text :
1st row : Drawing title
2nd row : Drawing no
3rd row : Issued date
4th row : Rev no ( also draw a vertical line beside text) - In the 4th column using text command mention the following text :
1st row : Drawing list
2nd row : IAS/201802/A/901
