3. Land Survey
• Construction survey
• the technique, profession, and science of determining the
terrestrial or three-dimensional position of points and the
distances and angles between them.
• used to establish land maps and boundaries for ownership.
• To ensure that owner property borders are accurate, and the
house is built exactly where it's supposed to go.

4. Theodolite
• An optical instrument
consisting of a small
mounted telescope
rotatable in horizontal
and vertical planes, used
to measure horizontal
and vertical angles.

5. Auto-level
• Levelling the ground for the
perfect level base of the
building is achieved by
Auto-level.
• This instrument measures the
height of two points on a
horizontal plane, allowing
the builder to measure
whether a bit of ground is
level or not.

6. SingleStoreyBuilding
ArchitecturalDrawing
 It is the backbone of
the building design
and plays a critical
role in translating a
design to feasible
structure.
 Use of Computer
Aided Design (CAD)
system.
 Visualization of how
the building or
specific portion of it
will look after
completion.
 Steps of Architectural
Drawings are:
1. Site Plan
2. Plans
3. Elevations
4. Sections.

8. Terrace

9. Elevations

10. Cross-section at A-A

11. Location Map

12. SAP2000
(Structural Analysis Programme)
Learning SAP2000
Used for analysis of
high-rise buildings.
Load Assign
1. External wall load
2. Internal wall load
3. Parapet load
4. Point load
5. Impact load
6. Wind force
7. Earthquake force in x-axis
8. Earthquake force in y-axis
9. Dead load
10. Live load
11. Stair dead load, etc.

13. SAP Grids of Building

14. Main steps involvement are:
1. Define section (sizes of
column, beam)
2. Assign materials (concrete,
steel grade)
3. Assign restraints,
joints(hinge, roller, fixed
etc.)
4. Grouping
5. Diaphragm (1st,2nd,..floors)
6. Assign loads
7. Run
Screen-shoot (Load Assign)
