- Draw a rectangle of standard size of A3 ( 297 x 420)
- Rectangle > specify point >297,420
- Offset > 5> select object: select rectangle > select inner side of rectangle
- Explode the previous rectangle by using explode command
- EXPLODE > select the inner rectangle > enter
- Create a table by offsetting the line
- Offset the inner vertical line in to 3 parts
- OFFSET > Select the inner vertical line > Specify distance: 100> Enter.
- Copy > select the line > Array > Enter number of items to array: 6> second point or [Fit]: 15
- Trim the unused lines by using “TRIM” command.
- OFFSET > the last line > Specify distance: 30> Enter.
- OFFSET > the last line > Specify distance: 10> Enter.
- Copy > select the line > Array > Enter number of items to array: 4> second point or [Fit]: 5
- Create text by “ MTEXT” command
Creating attribute text by using ATTDEF command:
- ATTDEF >
> specify location. - Repeat Attribute command for remaining text (For similar text we can copy the same attribute)
Create a block
- B >
> select block in source option - Select object > select drawing > enter
- Specify base point > enter
- Creating a custom-2 Block
- Draw a rectangle of standard size of A3 ( 297 x 420)
- Rectangle > specify point >297,420
- Offset > 5> select object: select rectangle > select inner side of rectangle
- Explode the previous rectangle by using explode command
- EXPLODE > select the inner rectangle > enter
- Create a table by offsetting the line
- OFFSET > Select object: Select the vertical line > Specify distance : 100 > specify direction
- OFFSET > Select object: Select the last line > Specify distance : 100 > specify direction
- OFFSET > Select object: Select the last line > Specify distance : 100 > specify direction
- OFFSET > Select object: Select the horizontal line > Specify distance : 15 > specify direction
- OFFSET > Select object: Select the last line > Specify distance : 15 > specify direction
- OFFSET > Select object: Select the last line > Specify distance : 8 > specify direction
- Copy > select the line > Array > Enter number of items to array: 4> second point or [Fit]: 5
- Create text by “ MTEXT” command
Creating attribute text by using ATTDEF command:
- ATTDEF >
> specify location - Repeat Attribute command for remaining text ( For similar text we can copy the same attribute )
Create a block
- B > object ref image > select block in source option
- Select object > select drawing > enter
Specify base point > enter
Result:
- Custom1_titleblock

AIM & INTRODUCTION:To draw the doors type for warehouse as shown in the Figure. You need to create each door type as per standard size or given dimensions and create the blocks of this door type after creating them.
Procedure :
Open new drawing file
- Select units
- Un
- Draw a rectangle of size of 2330mm x 2750mm
- Rectangle > specify point >2330,2750
- Offset > Specify distance:250> select object: select rectangle > select inner side of rectangle
- Explode the previous rectangle by using explode command
- EXPLODE > select the inner rectangle > enter
- Extend the horizontal lines
- EXTEND > select the base line > select the extend line
- Divide the line in to four parts
- DIV > Select the horizontal line > Enter number of parts:4
- Draw the lines which is offset from points at a distance
- XL > vertical > intersect the line in vertical direction
- Offset > specify distance :10 >select the line > specify at both directions
- Do the same procedure for all 4 points
- Draw a rectangle of 300 X 650 mm
- Offset > Specify distance:20 > select object: select rectangle > select inner side of rectangle
- Offset > Specify distance:50> select object: select rectangle > select inner side of rectangle
- Join tie corners of given rectangle with line command.
