• The second door is created by copying and pasting the first door directly below it using ORTHO button and COPY commands.
• The array of rectangles is then erased using ERASE command.

• Both the doors are then saved as blocks using BLOCK command.

RESULT:

The door types for warehouse as shown in the Figure are created and converted to blocks.

3)

• The third of symbols are created using LINE, DTEXT and CIRCLE commands.

• All the symbols are then converted to blocks and named as per the drawing using BLOCK command.
• Using LINE command and TRIM command the Table is drawn.
• Using INSERT command the blocks are inserted.
• The headings are given using DTEXT.
• Once the blocks are inserted the Field option in the Insert panel is used to get the name of the blocks.

• The doors are created as per dimensions using the RECTANGULAR, PLINE, ARC, OFFSET and TRIM commands.
• Dimensions layer is created from the Layer properties manager and dimensions are given wherever required using DIMLINEAR command.
• The doors are then converted into blocks using BLOCK command.

• The ATT command is used to provide the attributes to each block.

• The EATTEDIT command is used to assign value to the tag.

• The same procedure is repeated for all the created doors.

• Save the block and insert them on the table as shown in the Figure.

PROCEDURE:

• UNITS command is given and units are set to mm.
• The shapes are created and using LINE, PLINE and TRIM commands.
• They are dimensioned using DIMLINEAR command.
• They are then converted to blocks using BLOCK command.
• The table is then drawn using LINE and OFFSET commands.
• The blocks are inserted using INSERT command.
• DTEXT command is given and is copied and placed wherever text is necessary.
• The text is then editted by double clicking it or from properties.
