walls.

Step 4: Door opening are created using commands like trim, stretch and erase.

Step 5: Door are constructed using ARC tool and windows and ventilators are also added

STEP 6: Spiral stairs are constructed using offset tool.

Step 7: first floor plan is copied using copy tool from ground floor plan

Step 8: Changes are provided in first floor plan as per requirement.

Step 9: Measurements of plan and text is added

Step 10: Plan is saved and exported to pdf file for printing.
