INTRODUCTION:

• AUTOCAD- AUTOCAD stands for computer aided designs.
• Autocad is software developed by the company Autodesk.
• It allows you to draw and edit digital 2D and 3d designmore quickly easily than you could byhand.
• This software is used for designing and darfting.
• Autocad is 2D and 3d computer aided drafting software application.
• Autocad software save a huge time ,saving tmie is eaqual to earn more income by more output it is a simple enough software with real user friendly interface.It is easy to grasp and it can provide you the basic exposure it is very benefical in designing 3D.

COMMAND IN AUTOCAD:-

LINE:

Start line command by clickin the line button on the draw panel on the ribbon,or by entering L and then pressing enter.Draw line segments by picking several random points Terminate the command by pressing enterESC or spacebar,Press enter or the spacebar to repeat line command.

DIMENSIONS:

You can select objects or points to dimension,and then click to place the dimesion line.Fim command automtically generates a preview of a suitable dimension type insludes vertical horizontal and aligned linear dimension.

TEXT :

Select tet command frm the annotation menu of the home tab of this software.We have two types of text command in autocad .One is multiline text and other is single line text .You can use any one text command according to requirements.

FILLET

Select the fillet command from the ribbon panel or type F on the command line or commnad promt and press enter.

Trim:

Click home tab modify panel trim find select the objects to serve as cutting edges .Press enter when you finish selecting the cutting edge.press enter when you finish selecting the cutting egdes.

OFFSET:

We can offset any object through a point or at a specified diatnce.we can creates as many parallel lines and curver with the help of offset command.

HACH COMMAND:

Go to draw panel on home tab> You will see a hatch creation tab>Further specify the pattern on pattern panel> choose your desired method>pick point or select boundary objects> After filling the area ,Hit enter to apply the hach.

Block command

Choose Home tab>Block panel>create to start the block command.

The block defination dialog box opens.

PROCEDURE:

• OPEN AUTOCAD>
• In startup setting start from scrach select metric(meter).
• Setup limits.
