Answer :

AIM : Creating an Architectural plan for the provided plot size and develop relevant basic structural drawings

To draw the residential building in the plot size of

Plot Size: 60’x20’(18.3m x6m)

Procedure: COMMANDS USED are as follows

• OFFSET
• TRIM
• EXTENSTION
• ARC
• CIRCLE
• RECTANGLE
• DIM STYLE
• LAYER PROPERTIES
• LINE

Step 1

• In the command prompt type units in meter
• Analyse the plot area and plan accordingly, proposed building should be in the area, the area is 60' x 20'
• Type xl in the command line to draft the infinite lines where ever required according to assumed plan
• Offset the lines to 230 mm exterior and 150 mm interior walls
• Creating layer properties for different layers like : def points , walls , doors , windows ,text , grid lines ,centerlines, columns
• Draw doors and windows of required dimensions which were assumed

Step 2

• Analyse the plot area and plan accordingly, proposed building should be in the area, the area is 20' X 60'
• Type xl in the command line to draft the infinite lines where ever required according to assumed plan
• Offset the lines to 230 mm exterior and 150 mm interior walls
• Creating layer properties for different layers like : def points , walls , doors , windows ,text , grid lines ,centerlines, columns
• Draw doors and windows of required dimensions which were assumed
• Annotate to text the dimensions and adding text where ever essential
• FINAL RESULT OF ARCTECTURAL DRAWING
