  • Press Esc to cancel the X line.
  • As the thickness of the wall is 9’ and offset of 9 ‘ is created both vertically and horizontally.
  • The edges and corners are trimmed off and filleted to get the following images.

 

STEP 3:

  • The horizontal outer line is offsetted to a distance of 43’65”.
  • This line is again offsetted to a distance of 9’ that is the wall thickness.
  • The vertical outer line is offsetted to a distance of 25’.
  • This line is again offsetted to a distance of 9’ is the wall thickness.
  • The edges and corners are trimmed off or filleted.

STEP 4:

  • The bottom inner horizontal line is offsetted to a distance of 6’ and the line formed is again offsetted to a distance of 9” as is the thickness of the external wall.
  • The bottom outer horizontal line is offsetted to a distance of 139.5”’ and the line formed is again offsetted to a distance of 9” as is the thickness of the external wall.
  • The left outer vertical line is offsetted to a distance of 12’6” and the line formed is again offsetted to a distance of 9” as is the thickness of the external wall.
  • The vertical and horizontal construction lines are again offsetted, trimmed or filetted .
  • Now all the external walls are completed.

STEP 5: INTERIOR WALLS

  •  Select the internal wall layer as the default layer in the layer panel.
  • The internal walls are created and the thickness of the internal wall is 4.5”. 
  • The edges of the corner after trimming and filleting.

STEP 6: STAIR CASE

  • Select the stairs layer as the default layer in the layer panel.
  • Now using the line tool and offset tool staircase was drafted and the following image is obtained.

STEP 7: DOORS

  • Select the doors layer created as the default layer in the layer panel.
  • Now using the line, arc, trim and offset tool doors of different  sizes were drawn and the following image is obtained.

STEP 8: KITCHEN SLAB

  • Select the kitchen slab as the default layer in the layer panel.
  • Now using the offset tool kitchen slab was drawn and the following image is obtained.

STEP 9: CUPBOARD

  • Select the cupboard layer as the default layer in the layer panel.
  • Now using the rectangle and offset tool the cupboard was drawn and the following image is obtained.

INTRODUCTION: 

Autocad offers various tools to perform different tasks. The various tools which are used for drafting in this project . These tools include line, circle, arc , rectangle.

PROCEDURE:

STEP 1:

  • Type units and enter.
  • Select decimal and select precision 0 and enter.
  • Now the lower limit is 0,0 and upper limit is 2500,2500.
  • Type Z enters to zoom and A enters to all.

STEP 2:

  • Draw 2 circles of radius 1398mm and 452 mm with common radius.
  • Type C  and press enter.
  • Specify center point of circle 10,10.
  • Specify radius of circle 1398.
  • Type c and press enter.
  • Specify center point of circle 10,10.
  • Specify radius of circle 452.

STEP 3:

  • From the center divide the circle into 4 quadrants by keeping the ortho mode on using the line command.

STEP 4:

  • To create the chair, first draw a rectangle of size 500 * 200 mm.
  • Type RECTANG in the command line and press ENTER.
  • Specify the first corner of the rectangle.
  • Enter D for dimension.
  • Enter the length = 200mm
  • Enter the width = 500mm
  • Specify the other corner.

STEP 5: 

  • Now select the fillet command in the command tab.
  • select the first line to fillet with radius of 50mm.
  • select the second line to fillet with radius of 50mm.
  • press to cancel the filelt.

STEP 6:

  • Now draw an arc using the start, end radius command.
  • Select the start, end radius option from the arc menu.
  • Specify start point and end point of radius of arc is 250.

STEP 7:

  • Trim of the unwanted lines and offset at a distance of 50mm is made of the chair handle.
  • Type offset command in the command tab.
  • Specify the value of an offset distance 50.
  • Select the arc to offset and click outside the arc two times.
  • And end of arc using the line tool.

STEP 8:

  • Now type RECTANG in the command tab to draw the handle of the chair.
  • Select the dimension of the rectangle.
  • Specify the length of rectangle = 100mm
  • Specify the width of the rectangle = 50 mm
  • Trim the unwanted lines of the drawing.

STEP 9:

  • Now using the copy command in the command tab.
  • The chair was copied and placed once.
  • Using the rotate command  one chair is rotated 90 degrees.
  • Using the mirror command both the chairs were mirrored and by keeping the source object.

STEP 10:

  • Now using the move command in the command tab.
  • The chairs were placed on quadrant lines which were made earlier centrally.
  • Trim off the quadrant lines after placing the chairs. 
  • Now dimension is provided.
