This architectural drawing sample represent hall, rooms, restaurant and kitchen layout on the minihotel floor plan.
"Small to medium-sized hotel establishments that offer a very limited amount of on-site amenities and often only offer basic accommodations with little to no services, these facilities normally only cater and market to a specific demographic of travelers, such as the budget-minded traveler seeking a "no frills" accommodation. Limited service hotels often lack an on-site restaurant but in return may offer a limited complimentary food and beverage amenity such as on-site continental breakfast service." [Hotel. Wikipedia]

How to Start Drawing a Diagram on Mac

There are many types of diagrams, you can create using ConceptDraw DIAGRAM: network diagrams, organizational charts, flowcharts, workflow diagrams, technical schemes, and building plans. However, there are the same basic steps to start creating almost all of them. Here the tutorial we will show how to create a simple chart using a template, and how to add shapes to your drawing using libraries.
In this tutorial, we will explain how to create a simple chart in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM using a template, and how to use the library objects.

How To Create a Workflow Diagram

A workflow diagram is less general notation than a process flow diagram. Workflow as a term can apply to organizational process which involves people, resources, documents, sort of data, for instance; whereas a process is general collection of steps occuring in any sort of activity. That is why process flow diagram can be used as workflow diagram to describe business process, data flow or department interactions.

The fastest way to create a workflow diagram is using pre-designed workflow template. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM with the Workflow Diagrams solution delivers rich set of workflow diagram templates you may start from.
The vector stencils library "Valve assembly" contains 141 symbols of pressure and flow regulators, flow direction indicators, controls, and symbols to design flow paths of control valves.
Use these valve assembly shapes to design the engineering drawings of hydraulic and pneumatic valve assemblies in fluid power systems.
"Control valves are valves used to control conditions such as flow, pressure, temperature, and liquid level by fully or partially opening or closing in response to signals received from controllers that compare a "setpoint" to a "process variable" whose value is provided by sensors that monitor changes in such conditions.
The opening or closing of control valves is usually done automatically by electrical, hydraulic or pneumatic actuators. Positioners are used to control the opening or closing of the actuator based on electric, or pneumatic signals.
A control valve consists of three main parts in which each part exist in several types and designs: Valve's actuator, Valve's positioner, Valve's body.

"There are several named variations in the Amar Opening. The most well known one is known as the Paris Gambit: 1.Nh3 d5 2.g3 e5 3.f4? Bxh3 4.Bxh3 exf4. In the Paris Gambit, White allows Black a firm grip on the center, and also gives up material. Therefore, the gambit is considered dubious. The only named variation in the Paris Gambit is the Grant Gambit: 5.0-0 fxg3 6.hxg3. This variation was first played by Savielly Tartakower against Andor Lilienthal in Paris, 1933." [Amar Opening.

How to Create a New Library

Sometimes, when creating a diagram, you need to use a large set of elements from different libraries. If you are using ConceptDraw , in such case, we recommend you to create a new library, which consists of vector library objects from other ConceptDraw libraries. You also can add some custom unique objects into such library. Each object that contains in a new library can be provided with a unique description and keyword list.
Thus, the new library and its objects will be indexed to be searched and used in the further diagrams.
The vector stencils library "Fire and emergency planning" contains 52 symbols of firefighting equipment.
Use these shapes for drawing fire and emergency floor plans, equipment layouts, and evacuation schemes in the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the Fire and Emergency Plans solution from the Building Plans area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

Retract resistor check valve application: pneumatic cylinder, piston driven by Compressed air through 2 Retract resistor check valves.
"A check valve, clack valve, non-return valve or one-way valve is a valve that normally allows fluid (liquid or gas) to flow through it in only one direction.
Check valves are two-port valves, meaning they have two openings in the body, one for fluid to enter and the other for fluid to leave. There are various types of check valves used in a wide variety of applications. Check valves are often part of common household items. Although they are available in a wide range of sizes and costs, check valves generally are very small, simple, or inexpensive. Check valves work automatically and most are not controlled by a person or any external control; accordingly, most do not have any valve handle or stem. The bodies (external shells) of most check valves are made of plastic or metal.
An important concept in check valves is the cracking pressure which is the minimum upstream pressure at which the valve will operate. Typically the check valve is designed for and can therefore be specified for a specific cracking pressure.
Heart valves are essentially inlet and outlet check valves for the heart ventricles, since the ventricles act as pumps." [Check valve. Wikipedia]

Fire Exit Plan. Building Plan Examples

Fire Exit Map Example
In order to make it safe both for you and for your employees as well as your clients who come to pay you a visit time to time and who can get trapped in a building, especially if your office is in a high building on one of the top floors of it, then you must make the fire exit plan in case of fire enabling people to live the building on time avoiding being hurt, injured or even dead. For making such plan you can always use ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software which is one of the best drawing applications providing all of the necessary tools for making your own plans, including the fire exit ones.
