INTRODUCTION: -
- An isometric drawing is a 3D representation of an object, room, building or design on a 2D surface.
- One of the defining characteristics of an isometric drawing, compared to other types of 3D representation, is that the final image is not distorted.
- This is due to the fact that the foreshortening of the axes is equal.
- In an isometric drawing, the object appears as if it is being viewed from above from one corner, with the axes being set out from this corner point.
- Isometric drawings begin with one vertical line along which two points are defined.
COMMANDS USED: -
- Line command
- Rectangle command
- UCS command
- Dimlinear command
- Region command
- Extrude command
- Substract command
- Box command
- Units command
- Dimstyle command
- 3Dface command
- 3Dorbit command
- Hide command
- Explode command
- Move command
- Copy command
- Dist command
- Solid edit command
- Union command
- Boundary command
- 3Dmirror command
- 3Drotate command
- Erase command
- Plan command
PROCEDURE: -
- First, we have to open the AutoCAD and set the maximum limit and minimum limit on the screen.
- Here first you have to draw the rectangle using the rectangle command, as shown in the figure.
- Create a rectangle of dimensions 6’9”X10’9” at any point on the screen
- Offset the rectangle to inside to distance of 9” as wall thickness
- Explode the rectangles drawn
- Delete the top line and extend them to the edges
- Create the window opening of dimensions 3’ wide as shown in figure
- Add dimensions are drawn using dimension layer
- Next, we use the region command and select the objects, then press enter.
- Then after total objects will become the one region.
- Next, we need to extrude the plan using the extrude command, with the height of 40'-10".
- Next, we need to subtract the four-window portion vertically in a building facade with the distance 5'-11" with the window size of 3' x 4'.
- Next, we use the union command and press enter.
- Then select the total drawing and press enter.
- Next the window portion will be clearly visible in the building facade as shown in the below figure.
- Next, we select the custom visual style as shaded with edges, as shown in the below figure.
- Next provide the layers for the building color, as shown in the below figure.
- Next, we draw the window of the size 3'-2" x 4' as shown in the below figure.
- We draw this window using the line command and extruded using the extrude command.
- Next, we use 3dorbit command to view the front elevation as shown in the below figure.
- Now put the building facade in the 3d isometric view using the 3dorbit command as shown in the below figure.
RESULT: -
- The given 3d isometric view of the building facade is drawn successfully in the AutoCAD in detailed manner.
3. Create the isometric 3d view of a stair with railing as shown in the plan and elevation. Assume the size of the balustrades and the hand rails.
AIM: - To create the isometric 3d view of a stair with railing as shown in the plan and elevation.

- An isometric drawing is a 3D representation of an object, room, building, stairs or design on a 2D surface.
- One of the defining characteristics of an isometric drawing, compared to other types of 3D representation, is that the final image is not distorted.

- Solidedit command
- Union command
- Boundary command
- 3Dmirror command
- 3Drotate command
- Erase command
- Plan command
- Circle command
- Sweep command
PROCEDURE: -
- First, we open the AutoCAD and set the maximum limit and minimum limit.
- Next, we set the units as architectural and take the precision as 0'-0".
- Draw a rectangle of dimensions 3’X12’
- Explode the rectangle
- Offset the side edges to inside to a distance of 1”
- Offset the bottom edge to upside 12 times to a distance of 1’ as shown in figure
- We draw the stairs with the riser of 6" and tread of 1' as shown in the below figure.
- Next, we use the extrude command to extrude the rotated figure to form the stair in 3d view.
- Next, we draw the railing using the circle command and sweep command.
- Next, we show the stairs in the side view using the 3drotate command as shown in the below figure.
- Now put the stair in the 3d isometric view using the 3dorbit command as shown in the below figure.
RESULT: -
- The given 3d isometric view of the stair is drawn successfully in the AutoCAD in detailed manner.
- Create the 3D view of a Wall with spread footing. Create the Door opening only. Assume the size of the parapet and the coping. See the plans and elevation for the details. Also, create a rendered view of the model with materials as of your choice.
AIM: - To create the 3D view of a Wall with spread footing and need to create a rendered view of the model with materials.

PROCEDURE: -
- First, we open the AutoCAD and set the maximum limit and minimum limit.
- Next, we set the units as decimal and take the precision as 0.
- Next, we have to draw a plan of a wall with spread footing with given dimensions as shown in the below figure.
- Next, we draw the 3d isometric view of the wall with spread footing using the extrude command as shown in the below figure.
- Next provide the layers for the wall with spread footing with different colors for different parts, as shown in the below figure.
- Next, we provide different materials for the wall with spread footing, as shown in the below figure.
RESULT: -
- The 3D view of a Wall with spread footing and created a rendered view of the model with materials successfully in the AutoCAD in detail.
