Next, let us make architectural sharp drawing. Please practice the tools by yourself and complete the rest part of the structural sharp drawings as shown on the screen. Because the use of these tools has already been introduced, I will just demonstrate that quickly for some part of the task. We need to use the detailed line tool and the Text Tool to add a title, size table, and descriptions. From the Project Browser, drag one of structural plan onto the sheet. We usually change the name of the sheet to facilitate management. If you do not see the A3 horizontal sheet in window, you can click "Load" and load it from the title blocks folder. Here we just use the most common A3 horizontal sheet. Find a sheet composition panel, click on the "Sheet." Layer some P4 sheets in the sheet window, and you can also use self design sheet frames for each project. After completing the annotation, we can place the structure pane onto the sheet so that it can be printed. Using these annotation tools, you can complete the following 1f structural plan by yourselves, including all columns, beams, floor calls, floor elevations, ranging lines, landlines, and explanatory texts. You can use the Rotate tool to change the text direction or Drag tool to move the text. Click next to the boundary line, and enter the hex. Finally, we need to add tags, annotations for boundary lines, and building lines. If the line blocks the annotation, just send the background of the annotation to opaque. Draw a downward arrow for the lane to indicate that it's traffic direction. Draw two diagonal lines on vertically penetrating spaces, such as elevator shafts and pipes shafts. Click on the Detail Line, select the Thin Line in Line Style, and draw a diagonal line from the upper right to lower left on each of the floor panels. Under the Annotate tab, find the detail panel. We need to draw detailed lines for the floors, the vertical space, and the driveway. Next, we are going to add detail lines for the structural plan. Click on the target floor to start annotating the elevation. Under the annotate tab, find the dimension panel. Next, let us annotate the elevation of the floors. Now, let me quickly finish the tagging for pins and plates. Then relocate the tags to avoid overlapping. Double-click the text on the columns one-by-one to enter the corresponding size codes. Finally, Tag panel, click on the "Tag All." Select "Floor Tags," "Structural Column Tags," and "Structural Frame Tags." Click "Okay." We can quickly create tags of question marks on the columns, beams, and floors. Next, we are going to tap the columns, beams, and flows with size calls so that the user can find the size of each structural components easily with the structural size chart under the annotate tab. Click on the aligned dimension, mark the distance between the grids. Under the Modify tab, find a major panel. When we model the columns, we only need to measure the distance between the grid points. Next, let us do distance dimensioning between the columns because the centers of the columns are on the grid points. After finishing the structure plane, we can adjust the display of the grid according to the projects needs.

First, let me explain how to make structural shop drawing. I will show you how to use the annotation tools to make structural and architectural drawings. In this session, we are going to create CAD drawings from our 3D model.
