Creating Bar Bending schedule, Different Door types, and Creation of standard drawing templates using AutoCad
1)
AIM:
-To create the templates and need to take the size of title block as per industry standards.
-And need to save them as a block names as Customi_titlebox and Custom_titlebox.
INTRODUCTION:
• Drawing template files are drawings that store styles, settings, layers, and layouts in a drawing including title blocks.
• When you create a new drawing based on a drawing template, the new drawing gets a copy of the styles in the template, but it is a one-time copy.
COMMANDS USED:
• Limits command,Single Text command,Line command,Dimlinear command,Trim command,Object snap command,Offset command,Units command,Dimstyle command,Extend command, Block command
PROCEDURE:
Step:-1
First we need to draw the line horizontal line with the length of 66.63mm
• Next we need to draw the line vertically upwards with the length of 158mm.
• Next again draw the line horizontally backwards with the length of 66.63mm.
• Next join the previous line and the first line to form a rectangle.
• Next we take the first row of offset with the length of 5mm at the top.
• Next we draw the second row of offset with the length of 10mm.
• Next we draw the third row of offset with the length of 5mm.
• Draw the fourth row of offset with the length of 5mm.
• Draw the fifth row of offset with the length of 8mm.
• Draw the sixth row of offset with the length of 30mm.
• Draw the seventh row of offset with the length of 15mm.
• Draw the eighth row of offset with the length of 15mm.
• Draw the 9 th row of offset with the length of 20mm.
• Draw the 10th row of offset with the length of 20mm.
• Draw the 11th row of offset with the length of 10mm.
• Draw the 12th row of offset with the length of 15mm.
• Next we need to draw remaining rows and columns required in the drawing.
• Next we use the single text command to write the text in the rows and columns where ever required.
• After entering the texts we need to save the title box as a block with the name as Customi_titlebox.
• We use the block command to save the title box as a block, as shown in the below picture.
• Now enter the block command in the command box.
• Next click the pick point and pick the point of the title box • Next select the objects in the figure and press enter.
• Then select the option 'convert to box'.
• Next we have to turn on the scale uniformly!
• Then after press the ok buttom to finish.
• Finally the title box is created as a block with the name as Custom1_titlebox.
'
Step:-2
• First we have to draw the horizontal line with the length of 252mm.
• Next we have to draw the vertical line from previous line with the length of 46mm.
• Next again draw the horizontal line from the previous line with the length of 252mm.
• Next we join the first line and the last line at the left side of the figure.
• Next we have to draw the rectangle at the right corner of the figure at the top.
• Next we need to draw remaining rows and columns required in the drawing.
• Next we use the single text command to write the text in the rows and columns where ever required.
• After entering the texts we need to save the title box as a block with the name as Customi_titlebox.
• We use the block command to save the title box as a block, as shown in the below picture.
• Now enter the block command in the command box.
• Next click the pick point and pick the point of the title box.
• Next select the objects in the figure and press enter.
• Then select the option 'convert to box'.
• Next we have to turn on the scale uniformly.
• Then after press the ok buttom to finish.
• Finally the title box is created as a block with the name as Custom 2_titlebox.
OUTPUT:
-The required templates are created

Introduction:
-An electrical drawing is a type of technical drawing that provides visual representation describing electrical - systems or circuits
-They are sometimes referred to as wiring diagrams and are used to explain the design to electricians or other workers who will use them to help install or repair electrical systems.
Procedure:
Creating electrical symbols Single gang switch:
Draw a circle of radius 64mm and with line draw an inclined line vertical and horizontal line perpendicular to the inclined as required.
Double gang switch:
Draw circle and draw two horizontal lines and a vertical incline line. Triple gang switch: Draw circle, 1 vertical incline line and three horizontal lines.
Triple gang switch:
Draw circle, 1 vertical incline line and three horizontal lines.
Single two-way switch:
Draw same as single gang switch and with donout command give internal dia as zero and for external diameter select it in the circle.
Double two way switch:
Draw same as double gang switch and create donout.
Triple two-way switch:
Draw same as triple gang switch and create donout.
Switch cross:
Create a circle and donout inside and with line command draw an inclined vertical and perpendicular horizontal. Mirror the line in both directions.
Switch serial:
Copy the switch cross and delete two bottom lines, remove the donout also.
Single socket:
Create a circle, divide it into half and draw a line at the top.
Single socket for lamp:
From the single socket, draw a horizontal line perpendicular to vertical
Double socket:
Draw the single socket and copy it to create same and place it using snap on.
Floor socket single:
Draw a rectangle surrounding single socket.
Floor single socket for lamp:
Draw a rectangle surrounding single socket for lamp
Floor socket double:
Create two single socket and place a rectangle surrounding it.
Floor socket single telephone:
Draw a single socket, a triangle and surrounded by a rectangle.
Floor socket double telephone:
draw 2 single socket and a triangle surrounded by a rectangle.
Telephone socket:
Draw a triangle
Internet socket:
Insert text "i" in the triangle.
Tv socket:
Insert text "TV' in the triangle.
Weatherproof socket:
Insert text "w" in the triangle.
Duct base section:
Draw a rectangle - select the bottom grip point - select add vertex - then pull the vertex to create a bend, with line draw the lines.
Wall bracket:
With rectangle draw the base, create a circle, draw a line connecting the rectangle and circle, draw a cross line inside the circle.
Picture lamp:
draw two rectangles connected by a line as shown
Creating them as block: Command "B" give name as single gang switch-pick a point - select object (created single gang switch) - tick scale uniformly and allow exploding options.
Similarly define each one of them as block giving the respective names.
Do the same procedure for the remaining symbols.
Creating and arranging hem in layers: First create a rectangular table having 10 rows and 6 columns.
Place each of the blocks in the respective rows and columns.
To enter text with the block from the insert tab-select field-select object -select block.
E.g.: for single gang switch - select from the field. - select uppercase in format
OUTPUT:
- Arrangement of created blocks in the legend as shown in the Figure.

5)
AIM:
Create each shape as a block
INTRODUCTION:
•Bar Bending Schedule (BBS) is basically the representation of bend shapes and cut length of bars as per structure drawings
•BBS is prepared from construction drawings
•For each member separate BBS is prepared because bars are bended in various shapes depending on the shape of member.
PROCEDURE:
creating bend bending diagrams.
type A
• draw a line of 750mm and a circle of radius at end points.
type B
• select a line first distance towards right is 139.
• next fidtance of 41 downwards at an angle 315.
• next distance at 150 at right side.
• draw a arc of radius 16 and a 14.5 length horizontal line arc end.
• select full object and mirror to get to opposite side.
type C
• select a line ,first distance towards right is 180
• next fidtance of 41 downwards at an angle 315.
• next distance at 105 at right side.
• draw a arc of radius 16 and a 14.4 length horizontal line arc end.
• select full object and mirror to get to opposite side
type D
• draw a line of 750 and a arc of 11 on both side.
type E
• draw a rectangle of 23x43 and fillet with radius 5 and draw a hook of 12 on one side of fillet points.
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 scale
uniformly and explode all.
Similarly create 5 blocks: A,B,C,D,E and insert each of the bars as blocks.
Inserting blocks in the table
Create a table with rectangle and divide it into 6 rows and 7 columns With multiline text enter type, shape size, length, no, total length, unit
weight, total weight and all other text. By command Tinsert each of the block in respective columns.
OUTPUT:
-Bar shape are drawmn with detail as a block as shown in the Figure.
-Save the block are saved and inserted in table as shown in the Figure
