TASK 07 - Collins Office/Warehouse - Structural Roof Steel Plan

Required:

Each team is to produce the structural roof steel plan complete with a beam schedule, a joist schedule and the notes. The drawings and text are to fit into your group's standard metric titleblock inserted into paperspace.

Responsibilities:

Member A:

1. Modify the GRIDxx.DWG.
• All gridlines (for all columns) should have a designation. For example, the two extra gridlines between Grids D and E in the Preliminary Structural Foundation Plan drawing should be called Dx and Dy.
1. Create a new secondary gridbubble layer. (for example if your first gridbubble layer was A00GRIDBUBBLE, create a new one called A00GRIDBUBBLE2). If you already have a layer called A00GRIDBUBBLE2, then use the name A00GRIDBUBBLE-SECONDARY.
2. Add in all the secondary grids and label each gridline. Adjust the new gridbubbles so that they line up separately from the primary ones.
     
2. Using Microsoft Excel (or Microsoft Word), create one table for the Notes. Save the Excel spreadsheet as 20xxS02.XLS.
    
3. Create the following attributed block:
• beamdata block.
• Contains four attributes: beamtype, beamdepth, beamweight, and beamlength.
   
4. Create the following attributed block:
• joistdata block.
• Contains two attributes: joisttype, joistlength.
   
5. Office area roof plan
   1. Create a drawing called 20xxOFS2.DWG
   2. XREF the modified GRIDxx.DWG, clip the grid and freeze any unnecessary layers.
   3. Using the freehand sketch of the roof plan prepared by the Structural Engineer (the preliminary Structural Roof Steel Plan) and any roof details you have, draw the office area roof steel plan.
   4. Draw the structural walls.
   5. Draw the joist bridging.
   6. Draw the steel perimeter angle.
   7. Using the beamdata block created by member A, mark all the beams on the drawing.
   8. Using the joistdata block created by member A, mark all the beams on the drawing.
   9. Add any misc. notes pertaining to the structure.
        
6. Office roof beam extraction: In the 20xxOFS2.DWG file:
   • Create a new layer called S02-roofBeams-Office
   • Extract the beam data to a table and place the table in modelspace.

Member B:

1. Warehouse area roof steel plan
   1. Create a drawing called 20xxWHS2.DWG
   2. XREF the modified GRIDxx.DWG (see member A), clip the grid and freeze the unnecessary layers.
   3. Using the freehand sketch of the roof plan prepared by the Structural Engineer (the preliminary Structural Roof Steel Plan) and any roof details you have, draw the warehouse area roof steel plan.
   4. Draw the structural walls.
   5. Draw the joist bridging.
   6. Draw the steel perimeter angle.
   7. Draw the steel deck.
   8. Using the beamdata block created by member A, mark all the beams on the drawing.
   9. Using the joistdata block created by member A, mark all the beams on the drawing.
   10. Add any misc. notes pertaining to the structure.
         
2. Prepare assembled drawing 20xxS02.DWG which has:
   1. Titleblock in Layout - Job no on sheet to read 20xx. Use the team's title block prepared for the Office Manual. Title of the drawing to be "Structural Roof Steel Plan". Fill in the rest of the titleblock properly
   2. Viewport showing complete roof plan zoomed at 1:100 scale.
      XREF in 20xxOFS2.DWG and 20xxWHS2.DWG
      (Note: all xrefs should be accessed using the current directory - no paths)
   3. Using Windows cut and paste, copy the notes from 20xxS02.XLS (created by member A) into the roof steel plan drawing (20xxS02.DWG).
   4. Add necessary notes (as shown on the preliminary structural steel roof plan).
   5. Freeze the layer in the 20xxOFS2 xref called S02-roofBeams-Office
   6. Extract all the beam data and place in a table under the roof steel plan.
   7. Extract all the joist data and place in a table under the roof steel plan.

NOTE:
Based on the above tasks there will be a great deal of cooperation, scheduling and coordination of the various responsibilities between the two members of the team. The team's first action when you start this task should be to prepare a plan and time schedule outlining who does what and when, as one member cannot proceed with some assigned responsibilities without getting the information from the other member of the team... This cooperation is crucial and is the element of success needed for completion of the task.

Due dates:

Due Dates:

   Last class Week 13

Member A: submit all your CAD files related to Task 7 (office roof plan) and send a copy of the files to member B.

Note: if you do NOT send a copy to your Member B you will get a zero for this part of the assignment.

Member B: submit all your CAD files related to Task 7 (warehouse roof plan)

 

   Last class Week 14

Submit: All relevant files in a zip file uploaded to SLATE.

• Gridxx.DWG
• Assembled Drawing 20xxS02.DWG
• Individual drawings 20xxOFS2.DWG and 20xxWHS2.DWG
• PDF checkplot of Assembled Drawing 20xxS02.DWG
• PDF plots of individual drawings 20xxOFS2.DWG and 20xxWHS2.DWG
• Transmittal form. NOTE: Assigment will not be accepted without a properly filled in transmittal form!

Notes:

• Each team must hand in all the files from the TEAM in ONE folder. Individual submissions of files are meaningless.
• Keep multiple backup copies of all drawings.
• Do NOT email the file to the Instructor - create a compressed (ZIP) folder and place it in SLATE. Due to the size of the files and the number of referenced files this semester, emailing the files is not an option and any files recieved by email will be ignored.
