Creating Bar Bending schedule, Different Door types, and Creation of standard drawing templates using AutoCad
AIM: The aim is to draw the title block of the paper size A3, to understand the method of creating a title block and how to save it as template. Which can be reused when ever required.
INTRODUCTION: The title block is a must entity for any auto cad drawing, a title block gives various information apart from the proper presentation of the drawing. It contains the information like whether it is an architectural drawing or structural drawing, drawn by, checked by , who is the client, project name, location, revision, date, client and the drawing is created by whom.
PROCEDURE:
The following procedure is followed
Step1:
At the command prompt the units command was used to set the units to decimal
Step2:
Limmax was used to set the page to be 500, 500.
Step3:
layers command was used to create three layer 1. template, text, bluetext.
Step4:
rectangle command was used to draw the A3 paper size 420x297
Step5:
offset command was used to get the inner space.
Using the line command and the offset command various partitions in the title block are drawn.
Step6:
Command mtext was used to write the txt by picking text height as 4.
Step7:
scale command was used to scale down few of the text lines.
The following drawing was achieved
Then at command prompt
block was used to convert the drawing to the block custom1_titleblock, one of the images shown below shows the block title.
