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

AIM:-

To draw an Architectural plan for the provided plot size and develop relevant basic structural drawings

A] Architectural Drawing

B] Structural Drawing

INTRODUCTION:-

The buildings are planned based on the site availability and site condition, and it always obeys building rules in that region.
An architect’s efficiency is utilizing maximum space in the given area.
The first stage of designing the building is drafting a floor plan.
For the finished look of the building, we have to draft the elevation of the residential building.
Section of a building is also important for a better understanding of each component.
The structural drawing is a set of plans that shows how a building structure will be built.
It includes foundation details, framing details, columns, and beam details.
The proposed residential plan has east facing orientation and the plot size is 18300mmx6000mm.
The drawings provided are floor plan, elevation, section, column layout, beam layout, and footing layout.

COMMANDS USED:-

PROCEDURE:-

A] Architectural Drawing:-

1. FLOOR PLAN

Open AutoCAD new file
Set the units as decimal-millimeters
Set the required limits for the work
Create new layers by command layer> like external walls, internal walls, columns, beams, windows, doors, dimensions, text, etc.
Start the drawing by command rectangle and create the compound wall of plot size 18300 and 6000mm
The building is east facing building
Provide north direction
Give setback as mentioned in the rule
From the given outline we have to develop a plan.
Offset the outer wall thickness of 230mm and the inner wall thickness to 150mm
Trim the unwanted portions
For the staircase, the tread is 250mm, the riser 180mm, width is 1000mm
Create an opening for doors
Create the door and block editor
Place the door in appropriate spaces
Dimension the room sizes using the dim command
Create text

2. FRONT ELEVATION

Project the lines from the floor plan using Xline
Draw a horizontal line to represent it as ground
Take the offset of 450mm from ground level to get the plinth level
Now offset the 3000mm from the plinth line to get the height of the residential building
Take an offset of 900mm to get the parapet wall
Finish the project door height of 2100mm
Window size is 1600x1600 mm
Trim the extended line
Give the dimension

3. SECTION

Project the lines from the plan and elevation to get the dimensions of each component in the section
Trim the unwanted lines
Draw the staircase by cutting the section line, riser 180mm offset, and to the second flight take the riser and tread 250mm upto slab
Finish the doors and windows from the projected lines
Hatch the wall that is subjected to section
Dimension the appropriates

B] Structural Drawing:-

1. COLUMN LAYOUT

Draw the center line throughout the wall and place the columns of dimensions 230mmx360mm in the corner of walls and intersections
Delete the walls also and mark the gridlines in X and Y directions
Provide dimensions
