Column Layout in buildings is very important because if you don't properly layout or arrange your columns properly in a building, it might result to torsions on the columns and which can lead to building failure.
We have the building plan in autocad and our job is to do the column layout in Autocad. When laying out Columns in Autocad or when layout columns in a building, you should always try to layout the column in a symmetrical pattern.
