Creating Kitchen layout, Hatching of Architectural elements and sectional view of an Industrial Building in AutoCad

SSrijan Jaiswal24 Jul 2022
    • AIM:- To draw (a) Kitchen Layout (b) Elevation (c) Section
    • Commands used :

    1. Dimension - Command "DIM".

    - To edit dimension style, text, etc. command "D"

    - To move the dimension line select the grip point and move

    - If we place the mouse on grip points of extension lines, we can see options such as stretch, continue dimension baseline dimension, and flip arrow.

    - If we need to move or change the text's position, right-click the text's grip point: stretch, move with the dim line, move text only, proceed with the leader, above the dim line, center vertically, reset text position.

    - Command "DIMEDIT" is used to edit the dimension line, to make it oblique, rotate, and change it to default.

    - For text justification, the justification tab is selected from the toolbar in annotate tab.

    - Command "DIMBREAK" to break the overlapping dimensions.

    - Command "DIMCONTINUE" to continue dimensioning.

    2. Dimension Style - Command "DIMSTYLE".

    - We can create our dimension style from the "new" menu.

    - In this, all the lines included in dimension (extension line, dimension line), their properties (color, lineweight, etc.) can be changed, and we can suppress extension lines.

    - In Symbols and Arrows, we can change the shape of the arrowhead, arrowhead size, center marks, breaksize, etc.

    - In the text, we can set the height of the text, color, and style.

    - In fit option, if there is no space to place text and arrows in extension lines, options can be selected whether either text or arrows or both text or arrows, etc., text placement, overall scale adjustments (all the features of dimension lines i.e. arrows, text, etc. will change to be input scale accordingly).

    - Primary units, we can select the unit format (decimal, engineering, architectural), precision, decimal, separator, etc.

    - In alternate units, we can set another unit other than the primary unit, then two units will be displayed in the units position is all managed here.

    - In tolerance, we can set the tolerance level and how it should be displayed in the drawing.

    3. Offset - Command "O"

    4. Trim - Command "TR"

    5. Line - Command "L"

    6. Text - Command "TEXT"

    7. Layer - Command "LAYER"

    8. Match properties - Command "MATCHPROP"

    9. Multileader - Command "MLEADER"

    10. Rectangle - Command "REC"

  9. To create doors, extend the line of all the divisions and give a 10mm offset on both sides in the 10mm offset given for thickness.
  10. Erase the extended line and trim the horizontal line for the opening of doors.
  11. Extend the center line to the thickness of 3 cabinets from the left.
  12. Hob is drawn with a rectangle and circle tool in the plan of the third cabinet from the left.
  13. Layer the objects and do the dimensions and annotation.

  • Above Counter plan: Copy the wall of the below counter plan as the dimension are the same.
  • Drawing right side counter:
  1. draw a width of 350mm from the wall to the inside and offset 20mm to show the thickness.
  2. Offset a distance of 35mm from the left side of the wall.
  3. Next, offset 450mm for the top of the cabinet.
  4. offset 900mm 3 times for the next cabinets.
  5. From the right side offset 35mm, the rest distance of 1095 will be cabinet.
  6. For the second 900mm offset, draw a rectangle and from a distance of 1650mm from the left side of the wall, draw a circle for the chimney.
  7. For the rest of the offset, offset 20mm on both sides for the thickness.
