Challenge

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

1.

AIM: Application of autoCAD to Layout of kitchen with including hatching and others detail information.

INTRODUCTION: In this challenge, application of drawing and modifying tools for drawing of layouts, elevation and section is used and in advanced hatching related work is done.

PROCEDURE: Following steps are used for Layout of kitchen.

- Set units and limits as per requirement.

Drawing external and internal wall:

- By using horzontal and vertical xline draw walls.

- Use Trim, Fillet, Offset tools for drawing of walls.

Drawing of Door and Window:

- For drawing of door and window make opening on wall.

- Make door using circle, rectangle and trim tool.

- Make window using pl, rectangle and trim tool.

- Move this to perfect position by using snap tools.

Drawing of furniture, kitchen blocks and bath and wc block:

- For adding this block command ADC.

- Drag the require blocks to autoCAD screen.

Text:

- From rebbon select text object then specify heigth of text then provide rotation angle of text.

For editing text used text edit command or double quick on text.

- According to requirement single and double text is used.

- For setting of text command ST and set diallog box.

Dimension:

- In this drawing, dimension line with dot end is used.

- Do dimensioning using dimlinear command.

- For continuning dimension from last point command dimcontinue.

- We we have to setting of dimension for changing of dimension unit, text and arrow setting command dst and enter.

- Diallog box open.

- After modifying dimension setting dont forget to quick on set current, otherwise before setting exists.

INSERTION OF BLOCK:

- For adding block to drawing,

command block, diallog box opens.

- Select point, select oject, do other setting related exploading and scale.

- Specify the location of block.

- To edit block use blockedit command.

HATCHING:

- Command "H or hatching".

- According to material type choose, hatching pattern.

- There are three types of hatching predefined, user defined and custom usually custom hatching is avoided.

- For solid oject we can you solid pattern with different colours.

- Select hatching type and specify location of hatching.

- We can use option like associative, separatily etc.

- If you have to provide gradient then go to hatching setting and choose gradients.

- Gradient is of single or double colours.

- We can alter the colours and pattern of gradient with changing the settings of hatching and gradient.

- We can do hatching and gradient both also.

- We can do display setting like hatching sent to back, take on front etc.

RESULT: I understood how to draw layout of building and use of block and hatching in it.

AIM: Drawing of elevation using autocad software and hatching and gradient related practices.

INTRODUCTION: In this challenge, application of drawing and modifying tools for drawing of layouts, elevation and section is used and in advanced hatching related work is done.

PROCEDURE:

- Setting limits and units, draw external wall using xline.

- Atfter that mark the different height on elevation like window height, lintel height, slab height and plinth height.

- Take projection from plan of object which will show in elevation.

- Draw door, window, column, slab thickness, plinth details.

- Draw staircase, make sure rise will shown in elevation.

Drawing external and internal wall:

- By using horzontal and vertical xline draw walls.

- Use Trim, Fillet, Offset tools for drawing of walls.

- Use 230 mm thickness for external wall and for internal wall 150 mm.

Drawing of Door and Window:

- For drawing of door and window make opening on wall.

- Make door using circle, rectangle and trim tool.

- Make window using pl, rectangle and trim tool.

- Move this to perfect position by using snap tools.

LAYER:

- After completion of drawing work, specify objects of building to different layer.

- Objects like wall, door, window, staircase, furniture, text, dimension, hatching and projection etc. are make layer with different colour.

- Use layer command, then specify colour, line weight and line type.

Text:

- From rebbon select text object then specify heigth of text then provide rotation angle of text.

For editing text used text edit command or double quick on text.

- According to requirement single and double text is used.

- For setting of text command ST and set diallog box.

Dimension:

- In this drawing, dimension line with dot end is used.

- Do dimensioning using dimlinear command.

- For continuning dimension from last point command dimcontinue.

- We we have to setting of dimension for changing of dimension unit, text and arrow setting command dst and enter.

- Diallog box open.

- After modifying dimension setting dont forget to quick on set current, otherwise before setting exists.

LEADERS:

- When we have to note information about specific object and there is no space near the object then leader is neccesary.

- When we require leader with more than 4 points then command qleader.

- Fill dialbox and enter.

INSERTION OF BLOCK:

- For adding block to drawing,

command block, diallog box opens.

- Select point, select oject, do other setting related exploading and scale.

- Specify the location of block.

- To edit block use blockedit command.

HATCHING:

- Command "H or hatching".

- According to material type choose, hatching pattern.

- There are three types of hatching predefined, user defined and custom usually custom hatching is avoided.

- For solid oject we can you solid pattern with different colours.

- Select hatching type and specify location of hatching.

- We can use option like associative, separatily etc.

- If you have to provide gradient then go to hatching setting and choose gradients.

- Gradient is of single or double colours.

- We can alter the colours and pattern of gradient with changing the settings of hatching and gradient.

- We can do hatching and gradient both also.

- We can do display setting like hatching sent to back, take on front etc.
