Aim :- To draft the Plan and section by using a AutoCAD
Introduction:-
Floor Plan
- Floor plan is a type of drawing that shows the layout of a home or property from above
- Planning of a building gives the idea about the building how the building will be done in future
- Planning plays an important role in the civil engineering because without this planning we can't determine structural element
- Planning may be residential, public or commercial building
Elavation:-
- It is used to see the building how it look after the construction
Section:-
- Its used to see the cross section of the building
AutoCAD:-
It is essential to draft the geometry
The different tools required in this drafts are construction line (XL), text(MTEXT), donut (DO), fillet (F), offset (O), Hatching (H) and Hatch edit (HE).
Procedure:-
- Go to start menu, click on Start drawing
- Type stratup (Enter) in command line
- Enter the new value of start up:1
- Go to application menu and select new or type new in command line
- In the "create new drawing" dialogue box contains imperial type of systems and metric type of system
- We select the metric system in the "start from scratch" option
- After that in Advance setup option select the decimal unit system in the units
The above procedure should be followed every time when the new sheet is opened
Entering the start up command in the command line

Entering the value 1 for the start up
When we go to the new file then we get this file select the metric from start from scratch
Then advance setup setting should be done by clicking OK
Keep the units in decimal and adjust precision then click next

Keep angle in decimal degree and adjust precision then click next
Select the angle measurement in east and click on next

Select angle direction in counter clockwise and click on next

Keep the width as 12m and length of 9m as default and click on finish
