Tools used:

• Offset: For drafting the outlines as per measurement of the building like the walls and the staircase.
  • The external walls were drafted with giving the dimensions and measurements that fits in the given layout borders.
• Rectangle:
  • For drafting the column, footings and beams of the building.
• Line:
  • For drafting various components of the building Like the section lines the walls.
• Text:
  • For labelling various components of the building.
• Block:
  • Blocks of doors, windows and columns were created for ease-of-use and multiplying the components.
  • Columns were drafted with the help of line tool and then converted into block.
• Dimension:
  • For giving dimensions to different components of the building and showing their measurement.

Different sections were drawn with the help of projecting the outlines of the worlds and columns from the layout plan.

• Structural drawings:
  • Column plan was drawn with the help of line tool.
  • Centrelines with respect to columns, were drawn with the help of line tool.
  • Footing plan was drafted with taking the columns to be erected on.
  • Beams were drafted considering the distances between the column and the beam to be rested on them.
