Free Download: Public Building Grid-Based Floor Plan DWG + AutoCAD Tutorial

Download a well-planned public building DWG with full grid layout. Learn how to interpret column-grid planning and draft similar structures in AutoCAD from scratch.

📐 1. What This Drawing Shows?

This CAD drawing shows a grid-referenced layout of a public building. You can see:

  • 🔲 Gridlines (A–I & 1–10) for structural column planning
  • 🔄 Central Rotunda (circular atrium) – likely a major public space
  • ⬆️ Main Entrance with double doors and grand semi-circular steps
  • 🔃 Stairwell at the core – indicating multi-level circulation
  • 🚻 Washroom zones (with plumbing fixtures)
  • 🚪 Multiple entrances, rooms, and flow corridors
  • 📏 Precise measurements between grids (in millimeters)

🎓 2. Who Should Use This?

  • 🏗️ Architecture Students – Learn spatial organization around grid systems
  • 🧱 Structure + Arch Collaboration Projects
  • 🕌 Temple or Cultural Center Designers – Use circular core inspiration
  • 🧮 Civil Engineers – Work with column layout + RCC detailing

🛠️ 3. How to Recreate in AutoCAD – Step-by-Step

  1. Set Up Your Drawing
  • Units: Millimeters
  • Grid display ON
  • Layers: Walls, Grids, Stairs, Fixtures, Text, Hatch
  1. Grid Creation
  • Use XLINE (construction line) command
  • Vertical Grid: Label as 1, 2, 3…
  • Horizontal Grid: Label as A, B, C…
  1. Walls & Openings
  • Use PLINE or RECTANG for walls
  • Offset for wall thickness (~230 mm)
  • Insert BLOCKS or DOOR/WINDOW symbols
  1. Circular Core
  • Use CIRCLE for center space
  • Add stairs or oculus if needed
  • Optional: Create a dome reference if planning elevation later
  1. Dimensions & Labels
  • Use DIMLINEAR and DIMRADIUS
  • Use MTEXT for room names and area notations
  • Use hatch patterns to show different materials

🧠 Design Concepts to Learn

  • ✅ Grid Planning: Easy for modular construction
  • ✅ Circulation Focus: All paths converge near the central space
  • ✅ Hierarchy: Entry, core, and wings designed proportionally
  • ✅ Flexibility: Modular room blocks can be reprogrammed easily
