1)

AIM: To creating template,inserting text and attributes.

• custom 1_ title block.
• custom 2_ title block.

PROCEDURE:

custom 1_ title block:

• create a rectangle of size 66.63mm and 158mm.
• divide it with line for the text box into the columns.
• for rows, take offset of 5,10,5,5,8,30,15,15,20,20,10,15mm.
• by multiline text, type rev, description,by, date on the first row by text height 2.5 and style-times new roman.
• as it is repeated in the other two rows, take array give column as 1, rows as 3, spacing bewteen rows as 7.
• agaiin, use multi line text and type the required text in caps with text height 1.5 and style as time new romans.

creating block:

command B- block definition dailogue box will appears - give as name as "custom 1_ title block"-select pick point and select a point in the table-select the obect-select the whole table including the textx. giive scale uniformly and tick allow exploding. select convert to block option.

As we have selected retain the object it will be retain and some as the actual drawing and a block is created for the object that we have selected. if we want to use the block go to insert select the object and insert it.

custom 2_ title block:

Draw rectangle of 252 and 46mm with the lines divide the to the rrequired rows and columns.

with the use of multilines text insert the following height 2.5.

create a small rectangle at the right corner, explode it, create rows and columns.
by attributes, create the text inside it.command ATT- attributte definition dailogue box appears.
innsert the tag line- tag we are giving, visible before creating the block.
prompt: question we need to add what we need to enter.
default: the value shown in drawing after making it as a block.
for eg.: in the first-row 1st column "c" is the text to be displayed command ATT.

place the tag line on the place we need to hear 1st row 1st column of the box created. create attributes similarly for the rest of the text. the attributes created are:

Now create a block command B with name custom 2_ title block, select the whole title block and make it as block.after creating it as a block we can see that all attributes will change to their default values.

AIM: creating doors for warehose and placing it in blocks.

1. Door1-2330x2750mm
2. Door2-2330x2750mm.

PROCEDURE:

Door1-2330x2750mm:

create a rectangle of size 2330x2750mm.
Offset 50mm as a frame. 90mm for the left side. explode the rectangle.
by dividing DIV divide the top line into 4 segements. from the division point, draw lines vertically to divide it into shutters.
Offset 25mm on both sides for the thickness, delete the centre line.
Create a rectangle to show the panels. Offset 20mm from the 1st rectangle and offset 100mm from the 2nd rectangle. draw lines joining the corners of the outside and inside rectangle.

Create the panel as a block, so that it is easy to copy. create lock by rectangle command , and fillet the corners with radius 5mm.
By using the copy all frames are copied.
layers os created and all the objects are kept in different layers.

creating block:

command B- give name as Door1-pick point -select corner point- select object- select the full objject - ok. select scale uniformity and allow expolding.

Door2-2330x2750mm:

create a rectangle of size 2330x2750mm.
Offset 50mm as a frame. 90mm for the left side. explode the rectangle.
by dividing DIV divide the top line into 4 segements. from the division point, draw lines vertically to divide it into shutters.to make points visible, command DDPTYPE select the style of point.
Offset 25mm on both sides for the thickness, delete the centre line. create lock by rectangle drawn on opposite sides and fillet the corner with radius 5mm.
Make layers and insert lock, frame in different layers.
create it as a block B- pick a corner point-select the whole door- tick the box of scale uniformity- explode.

Aim: To create bar bending schedule and insert it as block.

• drawing each shape.
• creating it as block.
• inserting it in table as bar bending schedule.

PROCEDURE:

DRAWING EACH SHAPE:

• A-20mm- Draw a line of 750cm for straight bar.Create arc for the bend . create on one side and mirror it on another side.
  
  
  
  
• B-16mm- Draw line of 300mm for straight bar. draw vertical line of 41cm and exteneded a horizontal line and draw a line inclined at 45 degree from thebase of vertical line upto horizontal line.
  Trim off the unwanted lines. copy the same on the other side. draw a horizontal line of 139mm and copy it on other side. Draw bend with arc and mirror the same on the other side.
  
  
  
  
• C-16mm- Draw line of 210cm for straight bar. draw vertical line of 41cm and exteneded a horizontal line and draw a line inclined at 45 degree from thebase of vertical line upto horizontal line.
  Trim off the unwanted lines. copy the same on the other side. draw a horizontal line of 180cm and copy it on other side. Draw bend with arc and mirror the same on the other side.
  
  
  
  
• D-12mm- Draw a line of 750cm for straight bar.Create arc for the bend . create on one side and mirror it on another side.
  
  
  
  
• E-10mm- Draw a rectangle of 23cm and 43cm. fillet the correner with radius 5cm. draw to 2 lines of 120mm
  
  
  
  

CREATING BLOCK: creating each of them as block by using command - B-give name as a -pick a point -select the object- select delete-tick box of the scale is uniformity and explode all.

Similarly create 5 blocks-A,B,C,D,E and insert in the table.

INSERTING THE BLOCKS:

create a table with rectangle and divide it into 6rows and 7 columns. with multi line text enter typr,shape size, length, no, total length, unit weight, total weight and all other text, by command I insert each of the block in respective columns.
