Description
Here the modern toilet is drawn in side elevation at 1:1, 26″ deep and 33⅛″ high (661 × 840 mm).
Both versions, inches and millimeters, are DWG files that open in AutoCAD 2000 or newer; insert either one at scale 1 and it lands at its real size.
Under the IRC, keep 15″ (381 mm) from the centerline to any wall and 21″ (533 mm) clear in front; ADA toilets sit 16–18″ (406–457 mm) from the side wall. Compared with the 6 ft person beside it, it reaches about mid-thigh height.
Common questions
What size is the modern toilet drawn at?
It measures 26″ deep and 33⅛″ high (661 × 840 mm) in side elevation, taken from the outer edges of the drawing. The page shows the same sizes in both units next to the drawing.
Do I need to scale the block when I insert it?
Both. cadgrid-side-view-modern-toilet_in.dwg is drawn in inches (INSUNITS 1) and cadgrid-side-view-modern-toilet_mm.dwg in millimeters (INSUNITS 4). Insert the one that matches your drawing at scale 1 and the block comes in at its real size.
How much space does a toilet or bidet need?
At least 15″ (381 mm) from its centerline to a side wall or another fixture and 21″ (533 mm) of clear floor in front (IRC R307). An ADA-accessible toilet sits 16–18″ (406–457 mm) from the side wall.
