Creating 3D Isometric view of various structural elements in AutoCAD
1.Create a 3D Isometric View of the Building with plan and Elevation Given.
Aim:
To create a 3D Isometric view of the given building with plan and Elevation.
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 the foreshortening of the axis 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 drawing begin with one vertical line along which two points are defined.
- Any lines set out from these points should be constructed at an angle of 30 Degrees.

- Line
- Rectangle
- UCS
- Dim linear

Procedure:
Step 1:
- First, we have to open the auto cad and set the units, Maximum limits and Minimum limits on the screen.
- Here first have to draw the rectangle using rectangle command as shown in figure.
- Next we have to draw the two windows of sizes of 3’ * 9” and 9” * 3’2”.
Step 2:
- Now we Draw the elevation of A and Elevation of B, As shown in the below figures.
- We draw the given elevations using line command and we put the dimensions using the dim linear command.
Step 3:
- First We draw the window of the size 3’ * 4’ as shown in the below figure.
- We draw this window using the line command and extrude command.
Step 4:
- Next we draw the window of the size 3’2’’ * 4’ as shown in the below figure.

- Next we attach the created windows to the walls shown in the below figure.
Step 6:
- Next we use the 3D Orbit command to see the different views of the given figure.
Result:
The Given 3D Isometric view of the building with plan and elevation is drawn successfully in the auto cad in detailed manner.

- Here first have to draw the rectangle using rectangle command as shown in figure.
- Next we have to draw the two windows of sizes of 3’2’’ * 9”.
Step 2:
- 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 substract the four windows portion vertically in the building facade with the distance 5’-11’’ with the window size of 3’ * 4’.
Step 3:
- Next we use the union command and press enter.
- Then after select the total drawing and press enter.
- Next the windows portion will be clearly visible in the building facade as shown in the below figure.
Step 4:
- Next we select the custom visual style as shaded with edges, as shown in the below figure.
Step 5:
- Next provide the layers for the building facade of Skyblue colour, as shown in the below figure.
Step 6:
- Next we close the top surface of the building facade using the extrude command as shown in the below figure.
Step 7:
- Next we draw the window of the size 3’-2’’ * 4’ as shown in the below figure.
- We draw this window using line command and using the Extrude command.
Step 8:
- Next we use 3D Orbit command to view the front elevation as shown in the below figure.
Step 9:
- Now put the Building in the 3D Isometric view using the 3D Orbit command as shown in the below figure.
Result:
The given 3D Isometric view of the building façade is drawn successfully in the Autocad in detailed manner.
3.Create a Isometric 3D View of a stair with railing as given in the plan and Elevation. Assume the size of the balustrades and the hand rail.

- We select the camera and put it in the required position and press the enter.
- Next click on the camera then the small tab will appears at the top of the left corner , as shown in the figure.
Step 6:
- Finally we select the render option and then slowly it changes to the rendering view as shown in the below figure
