ARCHITECTURAL DRAWING:

Designing the architectural plan of 60’x20’ size, and orientation is east facing.

This Architectural plan consists of Floor plan, Elevations and Sections.

1. Floor plan:

A scale diagram of a room or suite of rooms viewed from above and used especially for planning effective use and arrangement of furnishings is a floor plan

1. Elevations:

Elevation is a type of plan it shows only one side view of house.

1. Sections:

A sectional view or a section looks inside an object. Sections are used to clarify the interior construction of a part that cannot be clearly described by hidden lines in exterior views.

STRUCTURAL DRAWING:

A structural drawing, a type of engineering drawing, is a plan or set of plans and details for how a building or other structure will be built. Structural drawings are generally prepared by registered professional engineers, and based on information provided by architectural drawings.

This structural drawing consists of column layout, beam layout and footing layout.

1. Column layout:

Column Layout is a layout mechanism that can work across container boundaries, arranging content on a common grid which consists of a fixed number of columns and a variable number of rows. Embedded UI element containers are merged with their embedding container.

1. Beam layout:

Beam layout is very important for any structure. Various things are considered to do a perfect beam layout for a structure. The structural layout plan, often known as the structural scheme of a structure, is critical to its structural performance.

• Footing layout:

Footings stand for structural elements which deliver the loads of column or wall to the elementary soil underneath the structure.

COMMANDS USED:

• Clear distance between column and beams are mentioned in the diagram.
• And also projections from column are also mentioned.

*BEAM DETAILS:

In this plan we used 16mm dia due to resist the dead load from slab.

• B1 and B2 beam are used and dimensions are mentioned in the diagram.
• In both beams we used 16mm dia bars.
• In B1 beam 6 No’s of 16mm dia bars are used.
• In B2 beam 4 No’s of 16mm dia bars are used.
• And also 8mm dia bars are used stirrups.
