The dimensions of the components of house are as follows

Walls	Columns and Beams	Doors	Windows	Staircase
Thickness of main walls is taken as 9”. Internal wall thickness is taken as 4.5”.	All the columns are of size 9”X12” or 12”X9” respectively. All the beams are of size 9”X9”.	Dimension of Main door and entrance 5'x7'. Dimension of doors of all bedrooms are 3'x7'. Dimension of doors of all toilets and Puja room are 2'6"x6'6".	Windows to the side of main door are taken as 5'x4'. Windows in main bedrooms and in both halls 4'x4'. Windows over the bed lights as 3'x4'” in all bedrooms. Ventilator size 1'-6" x1'-6".	Stairs are provided using line and offset command, with Tread - 1' and Rise - 9".

Procedure:

1. Set the units to engineering and select ok
2. Set limits as lower left corner (0,0) and upper right corner (500',500')
3. Go to layer properties < create new layers < name the layers for reference < close.
4. Architectural drawings:-
   • Plan
   • Elevation
   • Section

1. Using the commands line and Dtext, create the directions.
2. Then, Using the BLOCK command, make a single block and named it as directions.

ARCHITECTURAL DRAWINGS:-

PLAN:-

• Using the line Command, i drew the plot boundary of 60'x20'.
• The building's main entrance is facing the East direction.
• Using the commands line, offset, fillet and trim.
• Starting from the East, the car parking is planned at 14'x10'6", Lawn area for about 4'6"x8'8" and stairs for about 9'x9'.
• The building area is drawn leaving 1' offset distance in the North, West and South directions.
• After providing the offset distance, the floor dimensions comes about 45'x18' including walls,
• It is planned as per VAASTU. Even those directions are mentioned below.

• Main Door	Stairs	Kitchen	Puja Room	Living Room	Study Room	Dining Room	Master Bedroom	Attached Bathroom	Bathroom
  East	South East	South East	North East	FacingEast	North East	South East	South West	North West	North West

• The room dimensions are also assumed.
• The Door dimensions are shown above in tabular form.
• Using the mentioned dimension doors are trimmed and placed and here is the figure attached below.

• Columns of sizes 12"x12" and 9"x12". Using the Hatch command, fill columns with AR-conc and adjusted the scale for better visibility and copy it.

• Using the DText command, the names for each rooms, spaces, doors, windows and the dimensions for all the rooms.
• Using the commands line, offset, fillet, trim and DText, the compound entrance is created with 6" thickness wall also the car parking and lawn area is surrounded by 6" thickness compound wall.

• Windows are draw as per the dimensioned mentioned above and those are plotted and placed in the plan as needed.

• Using Hatch command, fill LAWN and adjust the scale for better visibility.
• Using the linetype long-dash short-dash cut the plan into 2 sections, SECTION - AA and SECTION - BB.

• And as in the ground floor plan is made the first floor only the change in parking is replaced as balcony as shown below.

2. SECTION-AA:

• Using the commands Line, polyline, offset, fillet and trim, I have created the sectional view for the Section -AA.

• Draw windows, kitchen space and stairs as shown in plan.
• Draw lintel beam over the windows, doors.
• Provided Parapet wall and over head as well.
• Using Hatch command, fill Plinth beam with brick and adjust the scale for better visibility.

• Using the commands Dim-lin, I have provide dimensions wherever required.
• And Using DText command, the name is given in the bottom and staircase dimensions are mentioned.

2. SECTION-BB:

• Using the commands Line, polyline, offset, fillet, trim and hatch, create the sectional view for the Section -BB.

• Provide wardrobe as shown in the plan.
• Using Hatch command, fill WARDROBE with Star .

• Using DText command, the name is written in the bottom.

3. ELEVATION:-

• Using the commands Line, polyline, offset, fillet, trim and hatch, createdthe sectional view for the Elevation.
• Provide windows ,chajja and door as per plan.
• Provide lintel beam over the windows, doors.
• Provide Parapet wall.

\

• Provide the dimensions wherever required.
