  • Also take the offset for internal walls of the internal rooms according to the plan.
  • Using TRIM command erase the extra part of the line.
  • Following image shows typical floor plan.
  • Now I placed the column of size 12"x12" and 9" x 12" in their respective places.

  • Parapet height is of 4' from slab.
  • The thickness of Internal walls is of 6" and 4".
  • Lintel height is of 7'

  • In section BB we get the view of the Living room wall and the passage.
  • In command prompt type HATCH to select the AR CONC to show the conrete pattern to the slab thickness,

  • In command prompt type LINETYpe and change the line pattern to dash and draw the grid lines.
  • Using line command draft the footing sizes if respective sizes.
  • Using DIMLIN command show the linear dimensions.
  • For Beam layout i took the sizes of the as 9" x9" and 8" x 10".
  • Draft the beam according the sizes using line command and OFFSET command.
  • Name the beam as B1 and B2 as there are only two different size of the beams.
  • Use DIMLIN commmand to show the linear dimensions.
  • For Front Elevation draft according to front size of the plot.
  • I drafted the door using LINE, OFFSET, TRIM command.
  • I used Hatch pattern of Bricks using HATCH command for aesthrtic view and also used net pattern for window.
  • Using line commad Draw the table for Column and beam schedule.
  • DTEXT commad to type text in the table.
