    can we use fillet to join the lines instead of extending them and then trimming the excess?

    • @mr.cargill
      @mr.cargill  3 роки тому

      Good day, yes you could.

      Yeah but sometimes it creates round chamfers if lines don't meet at a specific point. But you can control it by using offset precisely.

    Sir, I am mimicking what you are doing for my SBA. I am required to label the foundation plan. What are the labels and what lines do they refer to?

    • @mr.cargill
      @mr.cargill  2 роки тому +1

      Label the L type, I type and T type stiffeners. You lable them by drawing a circle around them in broken lines and then naning them then draw an arrow from the name to the circle

    I'm an interior design student in Canada currently struggling to understand the concept of how to build structures and to simply use the software in general. I am currently using a mac so I'm already at a disadvantage to an extent but you did awesome job on your explanation either way :) .

      Don't worry. It's just about commands. Just observe physical objects and basic dimensions for particular building sections

    Question
    Where on the plan should stiffeners be located at which corners rooms etc

    • @mr.cargill
      @mr.cargill  Рік тому

      The typical rule of thumb is that you want to have at least one for every 10 feet.

    What's the name of these I, L and T shaped things? What's the minimum standard distance between them on footings?

    • @mr.cargill
      @mr.cargill  4 роки тому +2

      They are called stiffeners. The minimum distance between them is 10 feet.

      Good day. The video above shows how to dimension a floor plan. The dimensions for the site plan will be similar. The first dimension line will be for the stiffeners and the spaces between them, the second dimension line is for room size and wall width (just like the second dimension line for the floor plan) and the third dimension line is for the overall measurement.

  • @kholiwedube7540

    Are the stiffeners the same thing as placing columns?

    • @mr.cargill
      @mr.cargill  Рік тому

      The stiffeners are the column footings.

    When you offset by 150, what is it in actual measurements?

    • @mr.cargill
      @mr.cargill  2 роки тому +2

      It is actually 150 mm in real life which is 6 inches. 25 mm is 1 inch, actually 23 ¼ mm makes 1 inch but we just round it off to 25 to make the calculations easier.

      It all depends on the setting of unit and dimensions. If you use the architectural unit with inches then the offset would be in feet("+ ent).

    Me g why did you use foundations for the closets. This makes things more complicated you needed to remove the two closets and just do the main walls don’t miss lead students these walls don’t need foundation they are none load bearing!

    • @mr.cargill
      @mr.cargill  3 роки тому +3

      Good day, you do have a point. The closet walls may or may not be load-bearing walls, this foundation plan was done in abstract so there is not a roof plan or floor plan to match it, therefore we do not know whether or not they are load-bearing. I should have made mention of that in the video. Thank you very much for your comment.
