This document discusses the key differences between model drawings and building drawings used in civil engineering. Building drawings must be done at a larger scale since objects are much bigger in real life. The scale used determines the reduction factor to relate actual sizes to drawing sizes. Common views shown in building drawings are plans, elevations, and sections. Plans show the layout and dimensions of elements from a top view. Elevations show the external appearance without dimensions. Sections provide cut views with full dimensions and details. Dimensioning and views are important for structural design. Examples of features shown include walls, windows, doors, floors, and roofs. Architectural design considerations include plot size, bye laws, covered area, and available funds.
The document defines different types of views used in architectural and building drawings. A plan is a top view drawn by assuming a horizontal cut just above the sill level. An elevation shows the front, back, or side of a finished building. A section is a cutaway view that shows both the superstructure and substructure with details. Plans, elevations, and sections are used to communicate different information about a building design.

Rainfall intensity duration frequency curve statistical analysis and modeling...bijceesjournal
Using data from 41 years in Patna’ India’ the study’s goal is to analyze the trends of how often it rains on a weekly, seasonal, and annual basis (1981−2020). First, utilizing the intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) curve and the relationship by statistically analyzing rainfall’ the historical rainfall data set for Patna’ India’ during a 41 year period (1981−2020), was evaluated for its quality. Changes in the hydrologic cycle as a result of increased greenhouse gas emissions are expected to induce variations in the intensity, length, and frequency of precipitation events. One strategy to lessen vulnerability is to quantify probable changes and adapt to them. Techniques such as log-normal, normal, and Gumbel are used (EV-I). Distributions were created with durations of 1, 2, 3, 6, and 24 h and return times of 2, 5, 10, 25, and 100 years. There were also mathematical correlations discovered between rainfall and recurrence interval.
Findings: Based on findings, the Gumbel approach produced the highest intensity values, whereas the other approaches produced values that were close to each other. The data indicates that 461.9 mm of rain fell during the monsoon season’s 301st week. However, it was found that the 29th week had the greatest average rainfall, 92.6 mm. With 952.6 mm on average, the monsoon season saw the highest rainfall. Calculations revealed that the yearly rainfall averaged 1171.1 mm. Using Weibull’s method, the study was subsequently expanded to examine rainfall distribution at different recurrence intervals of 2, 5, 10, and 25 years. Rainfall and recurrence interval mathematical correlations were also developed. Further regression analysis revealed that short wave irrigation, wind direction, wind speed, pressure, relative humidity, and temperature all had a substantial influence on rainfall.
Originality and value: The results of the rainfall IDF curves can provide useful information to policymakers in making appropriate decisions in managing and minimizing floods in the study area.

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.
1. Types of Civil Engineering
Drawing
Ahmad Hassan 2016-Civ-321
2. Proposal & Perspective Drawing
• First architect collects data and requirements for
the building such as the
• Funds available,
• Plot size,
• Use of the building,
• Number of stories desired,
• North direction,
• Plot-level
• Especially in comparison with road level,
required room sizes, etc.
3. • Then he makes a number of proposals keeping in
mind the by-laws of the controlling authorities.
• For proposals, plans and elevation are drawn on
a very small scale like 1/8 or 1/16 while the
section is usually not needed.
4. • Plans and elevation, in these drawings, are made
attractive even by coloring and, if needed,
perspectives are also drawn to impress the client.
• The proposals are then discussed with the client
and changes are made according to his wishes.
• Sometimes, if the client dislikes the proposals
altogether, new proposals are to be made.
• Offering of proposals is continued till the client is
satisfied with a certain plan.
5. Submission Drawing
• Submission drawing is usually a legal drawing
used to approve the plan from the controlling
authority like LDA, MDA and CDA.
• Plan (Ground Floor, First Floor, and so on),
Elevation and section is drawn in this drawing are
most commonly drawn on 1/8 scale. Section here
is used to give important heights but all the details
are not required.
• That is why it is also drawn on 1/8 scale and is
taken through such a portion so that it is the
simplest sectional view.
7. Site Plan
• Site plan is required in the submission drawing
for plots greater in size than 10 marlas.
• Site plan shows the block of actual building or the
constructed portion as compared to the total plot
area. It is drawn on a very small; scale like 1/16
or 1/32.
• If site plan is included In the drawing, the main
plans are only drawn for the constructed portion
without showing the open spaces and the
boundary wall.
8. • Various services are also shown in the site
plan, for example, if sewerage line is passing,
two or three man-holes of the main line are
shown and then connection for the plot is
indicated.
• Further comments are written like -disposal to
WASA Sewerage Line" etc.
10. Location Plan
• Location plan is also drawn to indicate the
location of the plot, on a scale like 1/64.
• It is a part-plan of the total scheme; one or two
main roads with their names and neighboring
plots are shown.
• Doors, windows and ventilators are Marked by
D1, D2, , W1, W2, and V1, V2, in the plans.
• The sizes of these components and other related
details are given in the form of a table called
Schedule of Openings.
12. Working Drawing
• Working drawing are those which are used to
carry out construction on site according to
design
• Example of the working drawing is
• Architectural working Drawing
• Structural Working Drawing
13. It Includes
• Foundation Plan
• Plumbing Details
• Detail of Door and Windows
• Electric Fitting Plan
14. • After approval of the plan, through the
submission drawing, architectural working
drawings are made in which all the details are
given which are necessary for construction.
• The sections are drawn on enlarged scale and as
many number of sections are used as needed to
clearly ,plain the Structure.
• On blown-up scales, stair details and details of
kitchen and bathrooms etc. are also shown.
• Further, position of various types of furniture's
Indicated in the plans.
15. • More than one elevations are drawn to represent
the shape from different directions.
• In working drawings, we can make small changes
from the approved plans like alteration in the
position of door. and windows and small
adjustments in the internal sizes of the rooms
• After structural and plumbing design of the
building, working drawings are made to show the
results of these designs.
16. Completion Drawing
• After construction of the building, drawings
are made according to the actually constructed
features called completion or as-built
drawings.
• These drawings are then submitted to the
authorities to get the completion certificate and
only after their approval the owner can legally
occupy the building.
