How to do orthographic projections (plan – sections – elevations) in AutoCAD.

Assignment 2: Architectural Drawings- AutoCAD skills

The attached sketches represent floor plan of office building with two floors. The specifications of the

building are shown below:

 Walls: masonry brick walls with 20 cm thickness.

 Roof Slab: reinforced concrete with 15 cm thickness.

 Column size 20×40 cm

 Door width: 90 cm

 Ground floor level +0.45 m, first floor level + 4.2, roof floor level + 7.2

Students are required to draw Floor Plan/s (1:50), Building Section A-A (1:50), Building Section B-B

(1:50), North Elevation (1:50), and East Elevation (1:50)

Notes:

 Students should suggest any required information and dimensions that are not shown in the

sketches.

 Students should submit a hard copy (using AutoCAD) on A2 sheet.

Objectives:

a. Learn how to do orthographic projections (plan – sections – elevations) in AutoCAD.

b. Learn when and how to use different line qualities, weights, and plot styles in AutoCAD.

c. Lear how to do Annotation, Dimensions – Grid – section line – drawing labels in AutoCAD.

d. Learn to deliver the drawings in the required scale.

Requirements: A2
