Creating a 3D rendered model for a Residential Building in AutoCad

Aim:
To Create a 3d imensinal model of the residential building with a rendered view

Procedure :

  • In the command prompt type units >0'-0" > engineering > inches
  • In the command prompt type limmax > 100',100,
  • In the command prompt type limits >0',0'
  • In the command prompt type z>a
  • In the command prompt type l > to draft the desired lines
  • In the 3d model it is changed to top view to draw the plan
  • In the ribbon bar > select layers > to create layers for walls , doors , windows
  • In the plan view the steps are also drawn with R-(6") , T-1'
  • In the command prompt type XL to draw the infinite lines
  • In the command prompt type adc ( Design centre ) to add the interior components like sofa , dinning table , kitchen , utility room , Bedroom , Toilet .
  • In the command prompt type offset is used to give the thickness of the wall of dimensions 4"
  • In the command prompt type trim to trim the extra lines

  • In the command prompt type Mt to give the text
  • In the command prompt type dim to give the dimensions

( top view )

  • The Dimensions are bedroom ( 12'6" x 15'10" ) , toilet ( 6'1" x 16'9" ) , Living & dining room ( 46'8" x 29'1" ) , Balcony (19' x16'1" ) , Kitchen ( 11'4" x 18'9" ) , utility room ( 27" x 18' 6" )
  • after the plan is created in the top view we go to south west view
  • In the south west view , In the command prompt type extrude or we can select it from the ribbon bar
  • With the help of the extrude command only the walls are extrude
  • The window and doors are not extruded

  • In the command prompt type rec to draw the rectangle (frames) for doors and windows
  • In the command prompt type extrude to extrude the frames
  • Like this all the doors and windows are create and for easy representation different colors are added to the doors and windows
  • The colors can be changed in the property tab
  • With the extrude command the steps are extrude withe multiples of six ( i.e 6" , 12" , 18" , 24" , 30" , 36" etc ) till the steps reaches the second floor height

  • In the command prompt type rec ( rectangle ) to give the floor layout
  • In the command prompt type extrude to extrude it at -4" ( which gives the thickness of the floor )

  • Now we have to go to custome view and copy the whole plan and past it on top of the ground floor

  • For the first floor the opening is created for the staircase with the help of the Substract command
  • In the command prompt type rec at the staircase top and then extrude it to the certain height
  • Therfore with the help of substract command the opening is created
  • In the command prompt type rec to draw the balcony layout and it is extruded to a particular height
  • In the command prompt type cir draw the circle and extrude > trapper it to get the railings
  • In the command prompt type polygon >4 sides > inside the circle > draw the rectangle and extrude > to get the railings

  • In the command prompt type rec to draw the rectangle for the celling and exturde at 4"
  • In the command prompt type Union to join the solids

  • With the help of box and extrude command the parapet wall is created with height of 3'-6"
  • In the command prompt type Union to join all the parapet walls
  • In the command prompt type rec and extrude it to a height to give the ground floor

  • After all this is done half our plan is complete
  • Now in the ribbon bar > visualize > material browser ( to add the materials )
  • for walls differnt stone materials are added
  • For terrace masonary brick material is added
  • for windows and doors glass materials are added
  • All this can be seen in realistic view

  • The materials used in my projects are wood, Aluminum,stone ,glass,sitework , brick etc
