Tapered bathtub in rectangular deck with corner cutout
Free CAD block from the Bathtubs library (54 blocks), drawn 1:1.
About this block
Tapered bathtub in rectangular deck with corner cutout, drawn in plan, front and side elevation. It measures 6' 1" wide, 3' 5" deep and 20½" high (1.85 m × 1.05 m × 51 cm), and it is drawn 1:1, full size, so it drops into any drawing set up in meters or in inches without rescaling.
It also comes as a 3D model built from these drawings.
From the Bathtubs library: 54 blocks drawn to one standard, each one available on its own.
In practice
Where it goes
The deck with a corner cut out is the detail that sets this one apart: the bowl tapers to the foot end and the notch lets the deck clear a door swing or a sink. Use it on floor plans for hotel suites and larger house bathrooms where the tub is built into a tiled platform.
Clearances to leave
A 6 ft 1 in × 3 ft 5 in (185 × 105 cm) deck is 6 in (15 cm) longer than the 67 in (170 cm) bay and the cutout gives back a corner of about 12 in (30 cm); keep 24–30 in (60–75 cm) clear along the long side and a 36 in (90 cm) door swing clear of the notch.
Pairs with
Goes with the Drop-in bathtub shell with tapered sides and rim flanges, which is how it reads in section, and the Shower slide rail with hand shower and two-handle mixer at the faucet end. A stone deck top with a tiled riser suits the cutout.
Common questions
What are the dimensions of this block?
It measures 6' 1" | 1.85 m wide by 3' 5" | 1.05 m deep. The drawing is 1:1, full size, so it inserts at the right size in metric and in imperial drawings.
Is there a 3D model of this block?
Yes. A 3D model built from this block's drawings, 6' 1" wide, 3' 5" deep and 20" high, is free to download in STEP, DXF 3D, OBJ, GLB, 3MF and STL. It is a closed part, so it also prints at 1:50 or 1:100 for a scale model.
File formats, AutoCAD versions and units are explained on the formats page; every file is free for personal and commercial work under the license.

3D model
Built at real size from the plan drawing, in white acrylic at the usual US rim height (15 in for a rectangular alcove bath, 20 in for corner, round and deck baths): the deck or apron as the plan draws it, the bowl lofted from the rim opening down to the floor the plan draws, seats and steps where it has them, the chrome waste on the drain and the overflow on the end wall.
