The steps to create a tower crane floor plan in CAD drafting are relatively simple. First, you need to start the CAD software and find the appropriate drawing tool.
The first step in the operation is to open the software and outline the rough outline of the tower crane by using the line or keyboard function to form a drawing frame, which is crucial in the initial stage of the drawing. Then, selecting the frame you've drawn, type the letter [b], which usually indicates the start of creating a new layer or object.
In the next step, a window will pop up where you will need to enter the name of the building's drawing frame and choose to convert it to a square, keeping the default settings, and finally confirming completion. This will ensure that the structure of your picture frame is clear and unambiguous.
Next, enter the letter [I], select the building picture frame you drew earlier, set the scale, and determine the insertion point, which will determine the exact position of the tower crane on the drawing. Once you have completed these settings, click OK and the exact layout of the tower crane is basically set.
Finally, you need to click anywhere on the CAD interface, this will activate the image box feature and you can preview your design. After confirming that there are no errors, save your work. That's it, a tower crane plan has been successfully drawn in CAD.
