# TLE Reviewer AutoCAD Q3 ## Lesson 1: Foundation - Part of a building below the surface of the ground which is sometimes called "SUBSTRACTURE" - **Footings:** An expansion at the lower end of the wall pier or column to distribute the load into the ground ### External Reference - File incorporated into a drawing for reference only ### Layers Filter - Are settings that screen out or filter, layers you do not want to display in the list view pane of the layer properties manager ### Library Path - Is the path Autocad that searches by default to find an xref file including the current folder and location set in the option dialog box ### Limit Dimensioning - A method of dimensioning in which the upper and lower limits are given, instead of specified dimension ### Limits - Size of virtual drawing area in model space. They are largest and smallest numerical values a feature can have ### Line Type Scale - The length of the dashes and space in the line types ### Truss - Is the framework of the dashes and space in the line types ### Mono Truss - The framework typically consisting of rafters, posts, and truss supporting a foot, bridge, or other structure ### Hip Truss - Truss effected to sustain the angle rafter of a hip roof ### Beam - Long, sturdy piece of square timber or metal in an opening or part of a building usually to support the roof or floor above ### Joist - A length of a timber or steel supporting part of the structure of a building typically arranged in parallel series to support a floor/ceiling ### Lateral Bracing - Refers to any piece (wood or metal) on a bridge that helps keep the top chord from bending horizontal ### Schedule Bracing - Structure number such as a beam or prop used to reinforce a framework such as supporting beam in a building ## Lesson 2: Drafting Structural Floor and Roof Framing Plans ### Steps Creating Foundation Plan 1. Plan your drawing 2. Display the floor plan and then begin the foundation drawing directly over the floor plan or another layer 3. Draw the outer side of the stem walls using the osnap command 4. Freeze all floors related information once the outline of the floor plan has been traced ### Floor Plan - Is the top cross sectioned view of the floor area of the house ### Floor Framing Plan - The plan that is drawn of the roof area used to show the shape of the roof ### Low Roof - Also known as a flat roof, has a slope of 3:12 or less. This means for every 12 horizontal inches, the roof elevation changes less than 3 inches ### Gambrel Roof - A roof with two sides, each of which has a shallower slope above a steeper one. ### Roof Valley - Refers to the V-shaped intersection between two sloping roof planes joining at an angle to create a channel for water runoff. ### Ridge - The horizontal intersection between 2 or more roof planes and represent the highest point of the roof ### Drafting Structure (Floor plans) - The foundation plan shows not only concrete footing and walls but also the numbers that are used to form the floor system 1. Layers can be added to contain materials for the framing plan. Prefix for layers - Tie Beam - Ground Floor (Comer Frame) - Floor Beam - Main Frame - Roof Beam - Upper Frame - In filipino they are called "BIGA" 2. Sub-names for ANNO, DIMN, TRUSS, LATR, and BEAM layers must also be added ### Types of Floor Systems Are Used in Residential Constructions - Floor Systems Built at Grade Level - Floor Systems with a crawl space ## Floor Framing Plans - Framing plans for each floor are drawn using the floor plan as a base. - The floor plan layers that contain the walls, windows, doors, cabinets, and plumbing fixtures should be displayed, with all other floor information frozen. ### S-SLAB ### FB-FLOOR BEAM ### Lineweight - Border - 0.50mm - Walls - 0.30mm - Texts - 0.30mm - Slab - 0.30mm - Text size: 2 mm ### Standard Size - C1 F1 = 2x4 - C2 F2 = 2x3 ## Interior Walls 1.
