Creating a Floor plan, Footing detail and Isometric view using AutoCad
Aim: To create a floor plan,footing detail and isometric view using AutoCAD
Introduction:The sketching of these assignments make us get in touch with the various tools in AutoCAD like rectangle,polylines,isometric views,snap mode,offset mode,copy,move and ortho mode.Texts is also used to specify the particular rooms and objects.
