Creating 3D Isometric view of various structural elements in AutoCAD

1. Aim: To create a 3D Isometric view of the building with plan and elevation given.

Introduction: To create a 3D Isometric view of the building with plan and elevation given in the figure.

Procedure:

  • In the command prompt type limmax >100',100'
  • In the command prompt type limits > 0',0'
  • In the command prompt type zoom > a
  • Go to the top view.
  • In the command prompt type l to draw the lines of distance 10'-9",3',3'-2" and thickness of 9"
  • Now go to South west isometric view and
  • In the command prompt type reg to region the object.
  • In the command prompt type extrude to extrude the object.
  • In the command prompt type dim to give the dimensions.
  • Go to the right view and draft the rectangle by using rec command.
  • Then go to south west isometric view and extrude it up to 9'.
  • Using sub command subtract the windows.
  • In the command prompt type h to hatch the windows.
  • In the command prompt type rec and l to give the window detailing.
  • In the south west isometric view.

  • In the command prompt type h to hatch the plan.
  • In the command prompt type dim to give the dimensions.
  • In the command prompt type mt to give the text.
  • Now go to South Isometric view
  • In the command prompt type reg to region the plan.
  • In the command prompt type extrude to extrude the plan.
  • In the right view the window is drafted using lines and rectangle commands.
  • These windows are added to the wall in south west isometric view.
  • The front view of the elevation is shown in the front view.
  • In command prompt type dim to give the dimensions.

  • In the command prompt type limits > 0',0'
  • In the command prompt type zoom > a
  • Go to the top view.
  • In the command prompt type l to draw the lines of distance 10'-9",3',3'-2" and thickness of 9".
  • In the top view the plan is created.
  • Go to the front view and create tread and riser with the help l (lines) command.
  • In the command prompt type dim to give the dimensions.
  • Now go to the south west isometric view.
  • In the command prompt type region to give the region.
  • In the command prompt type extrude to extrude the staircase.
  • In the command prompt type circle of diameter 2"
  • Extrude at a distance of 3'-2"
  • In the command prompt type l and join the railings.
