AIM : - To Create a layout of the Plan and Section A of the project in Challenges 7 using AutoCAD.

Introduction: - The layout is drawn using the template Tutorial-mArch.dwt in a scale of 1:50 as given in the Figure. MV command is used to create the viewport of the size 445 X 400mm & 445 X 375mm as shown in Figure. Also, ATTEDIT command is used to edit the information in the title block. PLot is also taken and the preview is shown.

A1 size is used for the layout.

• From the properties dailogue box,
• Change the height to 445
• And width to 400.
• Similarly change the other viewport also.

Now,

• After setting it properly.
• Click on MS or model space
• Do the required settings in the model.
• Now click on the scale to scale it as 1:50.
• 

• Similarly set the other drawng too in the same scale as 1:50.
• Lock the viewports after setting the Scale.
