If you mean file-types, AutoCAD uses a few yes:

DWG is the main drawing format

DWL is a lock-file that is usually automatically deleted when you close the file

DWF/DXF are both compressed files designed for distribution (if I remember correctly)

 

There are more file-types that AutoCAD uses, but a search on Google or Help can give you more info than I can give you.

 

Was that what you are asking?

[ReMark]

You can draw just about anything using plain AutoCAD but if you work in the architectural field you might want to use AutoCAD Architecture. Likewise, if you work on road design you might choose to use AutoCAD Civil 3D.

 

What types of drawings do you create?

i am asking about Architecture help me

 

OK. Help you what?

 

Are you drawing a floor plan? Maybe some elevations? A foundation plan? A roof plan? A wall section? Details? Are you putting together a door and window schedule?

 

What do you need help with exactly? Please be detailed in your response. The more you tell us the better we can assist you.

[ReMark]

I mentioned several types of architectural drawings previously. Are you refering to residential versus commercial? I don't know what you mean by "types". Please explain.

If you are working on a commercial project the seven major groups of drawings will be:

 

Site

Architectural

Structural

Mechanical

Plumbing

Electrical

Fixtures

 

Most residential plans consist of:

 

Site plan

Floor plan(s)

Elevations

Foundation

Section(s)

Details

 

Some house designs may also require roof and floor framing plans, cabinet elevations and layouts (including millwork details), stair layout, fireplace details as well as electrical, plumbing and HVAC plans.

Pencil drawings? The company doesn't use CAD to create their drawings?

 

Do you have any manual drafting experience at all?

[sameekwt]

is their any branchs in Architecture

[sameekwt]

thts waht iam asking

[sameekwt]

no i dnt have any manual drafting experience at all

[ReMark]

Branches in architecture? You mean "specialties"?

 

Yes. A couple that I know of would be cabinetry and closet layout. There are whole industries built around these two specialty fields.

no i dnt have any manual drafting experience at all

 

If the job you are applying for requires manual drafting we're talking about a whole new set of skills you would have to learn.
