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

GG.S.Mohanbabu - Mohan9 Nov 2022

PROJECT-1

AIM :-

TO CREATE AN OWN ARCHITECTURAL DRAWING CONSISTING OF FLOOR PLAN ,ELEVATION AND SECTIONS FOR THE PLOT SIZE 60’X20’ (18.3mx6m) AND ALSO CREATE THE STRUCTURAL DRAWINGS FOR COLUMN,FOOTING AND BEAM. EXPLAIN THE PROCEDURE STEP BY STEP AND DISPLAY THE RESULT.

INTRODUCTION:-

AUTOCAD IS A COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN SOFTWARE AND DRAFTING SOFTWARE APPLICATION.

IN THIS PROJECT ,I HAVE USED VARIOUS COMMANDS LIKE,

*BLOCK – I HAVE MADE THE DIRECTION SYBLOM INTO A SINGLE BLOCK AND NAMED IT AS DIRECTION

* LAYERS – CREATED INDIVIDUAL LAYERS FOR PLAN,SECTIONS ,WINDOW,DOORS ,TEXTA AND DIMENTIONS

* LINE ,PPOLYLINE,XLINE,RECTANGLE – TO CREATE PLAN ,SECTIONS , ELEVATIONS , COLUMN FOOTING LAYOUT AND BEAM LAYOUT.

* DIM-LINEAR ,DIM –CONITNUE AND DIM-ALIGN FOR THE MENTION DIMENTIONS

* COPY – TO CPOPY THE OBJECTS

*HATCH – TO FILL THE HATCHES IN COLUMN AND ALSO USED IN ELEVATION DRAWING.

* DTEXT AND MULTI-LEADER FOR MENTION THE TEXTS.

* FILLET ,TRIM ,OFFEST AND EXPLODE ARE USED AT VARIOUS PLACES TO COMPLTETE THE DIAGRAMS .

IN THE PROCEDURE EXPLIAN PERFECTLY .

PROCEDURE :-

OPEN AUTOCAD SOFTWATE

* STARTS FROM THE SCRATCH

* SET UNITS TO ENGINEERING AND SELECT OK

*GO TO THE LAYER PROPERTIES <CREATE NEW LAYERS <NAME THE LAYERS FOR REFERENCE<CLOSE

USING THE COMMANDS LINE AND DTEXT I CREATED THE DIRECTIONS
THEN ,USING THE BLOCK COMMAND , I MADE IT TO A SINGLE BLOCK AND NAMEIT AS DIRECTIONS.

USING THE LINE COMMAND ,I DREWTHE PLOT BOUNDARY OF 60’X20’

THE BUILDINGS MAIN ENTRANCE IS FACING EAST DIRECTION .
STARTING FROM THE EAST , THE CAR PARKING IS PALNED AT 14’X10’6” ,LAWN AREA FOR ABOUT 7’6”X8’6” AND STAIRS IS ABOUT 6’X8’.
THE BUILDING AREA IS DRAWN LEAVING 1’ OFFSET DISTANCE IN THE NORTH , WEST AND SOUTH DIRECTIONS
AFTER PROVIDING THE OFFSET DISTANCE , THE REMAINING FLOOR DIMENSIONS ARE 45’X18’
EXTERIOR WALL IS AT 9” THICKNESS AND INTERIOR WALL AT 4.5” THICKNESS IS PROVIDED .

I HAVE CHANGED THE LINE TYPE INTO ACAD_ISO02W100 FOR THE PLOT BOUNDARY AND ADJUSTED THE SCALE FOR BETTER VISIBITLITY .
NOW, USING THE COMMANDS LINE ,PLOYLINE , OFFSET , FILLET AND TRIM , I HAVE CREATED MY OWN PLAN FOR PROJECT FOR THE PROJECT .
THIS IS PLANED AS PER

HERE ,USING THE LINE AND TRIM COMMAND , I HAVE PROVIDED THE DOOR SPACES AS REQUIRED.
STAIRS ARE PROVIDED USING LINE AND OFFSET COMMAND , WITH TREAD-1’ AND RISE-9”.

USING LINE COMMAND , I HAVE CREATED COLUMNS OF SIZES 15”X15” AND 10”X15” AND USE COPY TOOL AND COPY THE COLUMN AT VARIOUS PALCES IN THE FLOOR PLAN.
USING THE HATCH COMMAND , I HAVE FILLED COLUMNS WITH AR-CONC AND ADJUSTED THE SCALED FOR BETTER VISIBILITY.

USING THE DTEXT COMMAND , I HAVE MENTIONED THE NAMES FOR EACH ROOMS , DOORS , WINDOWS AND GIVE DIMENTIONS FOR EACH ROOMS.

USING THE COMMANDS LINE ,OFFSET, FILLET, TRIM AND DTEXT THE COMPOUND ENTRANCE IS CREATED WITH 6”THICKNESS WALL AT NORTH DIRECTION FOR CAR PARKING AND ALSO CREATE THE LAWN ARE WITH 6”THICKNESS AT EAST FOR COMPOUND WALL.

USING DIM-LINEAR COMMAND I HAVE MENTIONED THE DIMENTIONS IN FLOOR PLAN AND CHAGED ITS COLOR FOR BETTER VIEW

USING THE LINETYPE ACAD_ISO08W100 I HAVE CRETATE THE SECTION-AA AND SECTION-BB

USING COMMANDS LINE ,POLYLINE , OFFSET, FILLET , AND TRIM, I HAVE CREATED THE VIEW OF SECTION-AA ,PROVIDED WINDOWS AND STAIRS AS PER FLOOR PLAN

USING COMMAND DIM-LINEAR I HAVE PROVIDED DIMENSIONS WHEREVER REQUIRED
USING DTEXT COMMAND I HAVE PROVIDED THE NAMES

USING THE COMMANDS LINE, POLYLINE , OFFSETS , FILLET, TRIM AND HATCH , I HAVE CREATED VIEW OF SECTION –BB
USING DIM-LINEAR COMMAND PROVIDED DIMENSIONS .
USING THE DTEXT COMMAND GIVE NAME OF SECTION-BB

THE FOLLOWING THE IMAGE CONSISTS OF FLOOR PLAN , SECTION-AA AND SECTION-BB

USING THE COMMANDS LINE,POLYLINE,OFFSET,FILLET ,TRIM AND HATCH , I HAVE CREATED THE FRONT ELEVATION AND I HAVE CREATED DOOR ,WINDOWS AND BALCONY
USING COMMAND DTEXT NAME IT AS FRONT ELEVATION AT BOTTOMAND BALCONY AT TOP
AND USING AR-B816 HATCH COMMAND FILLED THE BOTTOM SPACE.

THE FOLLOWING IMAGE CONSISTS OF FLOOR PLAN , SECTION-AA ,SECTION-BB AND FRONT ELEVATION.

GO TO THE LAYER PROPERTIES , EXCEPT COLUMNS LAYER LOCK ALL THE OTHER LAYERS.
DRAWN THE PLOT(60’X20’) AGAIN WITH ACAD_ISO02W100 LINE TYPE
NOW I HAVE DRAW ONE COLUMN AND USING COPY COMMAND AND PLACE IT WHEREVER IT REQUIRED AS THE ABOVE FLOOR PLAN

USING THE LINE COMMAND , DRAW THE SQUARE FOOTING 5’3”x5’3” IS PROVIDED FOR ALL COLUMNS
USING THE ACAD_ISO08W100 LINE TYPE THE GRID LINES ARE PROVIDED.
USING THE DIM-LINEAR AND DIM-CONTINUE COMMAND ,THE DIMENSIONS BETWEEN THE GRIDS ARE MENTIONED
USING DIM-LINEAR COMMAND MENTION THE DIMENSIONS IN THE FOOTINGS .
USING THE DTEXT COMMAND ,THE GRID NAMES WILL PROVIDED
FOR BETEER VIEW I HAVE PROVIDED THE COLOURS FOR GRIDS AND DIMENSIONS

GO TO LAYER PRPOERTIES , EXCEPT COLUMN LAYER LOCK ALL THE OTHER LAYERS
NOW, USING COPY COMMAND ,COPY ALL THE COLUMNS , PLOT BOUNDARY AND PASTE IT PARALELLY
USING THE LINE COMMAND , CONNECT THE COLUMNS WITH BEAMS OF 9” WIDTH
USING THE DIM-LINEAR AND DIM-CONTINUE COMMAND , THE CENTER TO CENTER DISTANCE BETWEEN EACHC BEAMS ARE MENTIONED
USING THE DTEXT COMMAND I HAVE PROVIDED NAME OF THE DRAWING BELOW.
