2. Right-click on the layout tab and go to the 'from the templates menu'.
3. Select the mARCH.dwt template from the list shown on the screen and open it to put it to use.

• Create two viewports vertically aligned one for the plan and the other for the section.

1. Use the "mv" command in the layout to create a viewport of the desired shape and dimension.
2. Specify the first corner point of the rectangular viewport.
3. Locate the second corner by giving the accurate dimensions as per the paper size and the building size.
4. Give the dimensions as @400,-445 for the first viewport and @375,-445 for the second.

• Call out the plan and section from the saved views and place them accordingly.

1. Put the V-ENTER to go to the saved views.
2. locate the plan and section of the residential building from the saved views.
3. Select the required named views to issue them into the current viewport in the layout.

• Arrange both views at the scale of 1:100 and lock the view.

1. To set up the scale, select the viewport from the paper space and then right-click to change its properties.
2. Go to the properties and set the standard scale as 1:50.
3. Go to the model space by pressing 'ms' and then pan the plan and section to fit the screen.
4. After setting up both the drawings, lock the view so that it can not be altered in the future.

• Create the table to specify various details regarding the drawing.

1. Use the line and offset commands to create the standard details table.
2. Locate the rows and columns of the table as per the needs of the specifications.

• Add the required text to the table and other places to complete the sheet.

1. Create a special text style by invoking the text style manager by entering the 'ST' command.
