Project 1 _Creating an Architectural plan for the provided plot size and develop relevant basic structural drawings

Aim: To create the Floor plan, Elevation, Cross Section, Beam layout for the plot size of 60'x20'facing East.

Introduction: Using AutoCAD tool. I have created the whole project using the tools like

  • Line command.
  • Offset command.
  • Mirror command.
  • Extend command.
  • Fillet command.
  • Chamfer command.
  • Trim command.
  • Xline command.
  • Dimension Linear command
  • Dimension Contineous command
  • Dimension Base command

Procedure: In this Procedure we are going to talk about floor plan, Elevation, Cross Scetion and Beam layouts are made using AutoCAD tool

1. Floor Plan:

  • Using Line command draw the plot size 60'x20'
  • Then offset it inside 9" to create the walls
  • According to Vastu Place the main door.
  • According to vastu divide the rooms like kitchen, Bed room, living, dining and toilets
  • After dividing rooms according to usability provide doors by trimming the lines by Trim command.
  • Place bed in bed room according to vastu and space and cuboards
  • In Kitchen provide kitchen slab and show gas hub according to vastu.
  • After completeing the wall work, mark for column placement with completely invisible in walls and at the same time with safe for builting frame structure.
  • Then give line for Cross Sections

2. Elevation:

  • using Xline command take the building outer line and column line and window line and main door line
  • Offset the bottom line according to standard like for Basement 3', Lintel 7', Roof level 10'9"and Parapet height 2'9"
  • Using offset command trim command draw the window and door to complete the drawing

3. Column Pit Layout:

  • From floor plan column alone taken and marked according to dimensions
  • Mark the excavation dimension around the column
  • Column place drawing is most important drawing for marking the site so it should be clear to understand
  • After place the column and column pit dimension excavation using dimlinear command mark the dimension and dimcon command mark the dimension correctly then its done.

4. Grade Beam Layout:

  • From the Floor plan take the column and draw the beam as shown in figure in Grade beam drawing
  • According to column arrangement draw the line.
  • Draw the Beam size as 9"

5. Roof Beam Layout:

  • According thumb rule D/12 beam depth are Calculated and drawn in drawing
  • With the same beam layout drawing the beam are placed according to structural plan
  • All beam width is 9" and Beam depth are 12" and 20"
  • Dimensions are mentioned correctly

6. Isolated Column Layout:

  • According to pit excavation bottom lines are drawn
  • The M sand filling level at bottom is mentioned
  • The PCC level is marked
  • With Cover the bottam mesh is placed and column reinforcement also placed
  • Rings are tied with 6" spacing

7.Cross Section Layouts:

  • As shown in floor plan drawing the cross scetions are drawn as AA and BB
  • Which shows us the Beams, roof slab and windows
  • same as elevation drawing using Xline command mark the column marking, window marking and beams
  • Develop from that to exact cross section as shown in drawing.

Conclusion: By doing these procedure i have drawn the drawing in AutoCAD screen shot have attached in it

1. Floor plan:

2.Column Pit Excavation:

3.Grade Beam layout:

4.Roof Beam Layout:

5.Isolated Column Layout:

6.Elevation:

7.AA and BB cross section:
