Creating various 3D Models like Furniture, Footing, Girder, Column drop with panel and Gable Wall in AutoCad

AIM:-Creating various 3D Models like Furniture, Footing, Girder, Column drop with panel and Gable Wall

INTRODUCTION:-

In this asignment we use various basics commands in Autocad 3d such as Sweep,3dorbit,Region,Boundary,3drotate,Loft,Cone,Polysolid etc. with the help of these tool or commands we are able to do some precision drafting and 3d visualised work in autocad .

1. Create a 3D Furniture element as shown in the Figure. Assume dimensions which are missing.

Commands used:

  • Extrude
  • Offset.
  • UCS.
  • Box.
  • Union.
  • Subtract.
  • Move.
  • 3d orbit.
  • Loft.
  • Sweep.
  • Cone.
  • Region.
  • Boundary.

PROCEDURE:-

  • Type UN and set the units as Engineering and precision as 0' 0"
  • Set the units as Inches in the insertion scale
  • Type Limits in the command box and set the Lower limit as 0,0 and Upper limit as 100',100'
  • Type Z enter for Zoom Enter and A Enter for Zoom all

  • In the Top right corner, Select the UCS icon and convert the space into a 3D view
  • Select the Rectangle tool by typing REC or Rectangle in the command box
  • Draw a rectangle with a dimension of length 2'6" and a width of 3'

  • Select the Extrude tool by typing EXT or Extrude in the command box
  • Select the Rectangle and Extrude in an upwards direction
  • Give Extrude height as 2'6" and press Enter

  • Select the Front view from the UCS icon and provide X and Y coordinates in the front face Using UCS Command
  • Select the Line command and draw a line of length 2" from the right side of the front view
  • Select the Rectangle command and draw a rectangle of dimensions 2'8" and 2'4"
  • Move the Rectangle to the line drawn earlier (i.e., 2" line from the right side of the face)
  • After moving the rectangle, delete the previous line that we drew earlier

  • Select the Extrude tool by typing EXT or Extrude in the command box
  • Select the Interior rectangle that we drew earlier
  • Extrude the rectangle with the height of 2'4" leaving 2" as thickness

  • Select the Subtract tool by typing Subtract in the command box
  • Select the Exterior Rectangle first and Press enter
  • Then select the Interior rectangle and press enter to subtract the rectangle from the exterior one.

RESULT:-

2. Create the 3d Model of an Isolated footing as shown in Figure.

COMMANDS USED:

  • Units
  • Limits
  • UCS
  • Rectangle
  • Move
  • Loft
  • Extrude

PROCEDURE:-

  • Go to the Top view using the UCS icon at the top right corner
  • Select the Rectangle tool by typing REC or Rectangle in the command box
  • Draw a rectangle with dimensions of the length of 2' and a width of 2'
  • Similarly draw another rectangle with dimensions 1'×1' at the center concerning the previous one

  • Go to the default 3D view using the UCS icon at the top right corner
  • Select the Move tool and Select the Interior rectangle
  • Move the rectangle upwards towards the Z direction at a distance of 2'

  • Select the Loft tool from the ribbon tab or by typing Loft in the command box
  • Select the Two rectangles and press enter to loft.

  • Now go to the Top view again using the UCS icon
  • Select the Rectangle tool and draw a similar rectangle of 2'×2' at the same position
  • Go to the Default 3D view and Select the Extrude tool
  • Extrude the previously created rectangle to the negative Z Direction with a height of 6" as shown in the figure below

RESULT:-

3. Create the 3D view of the AASTHO Type Girder.

COMMANDS USED:

  • Units
  • Limits
  • UCS
  • Line
  • Sweep
  • Region
  • Dimensions
  • Offset
  • Layer

PROCEDURE:-

  • Draw the line of 1' and in continued downward direction 6".
  • Now offset the 6" line at the other side.
  • then draw line of 3" from both side to make tube of 6"
  • draw a middle tube of 1'6"
  • then draw offset of 1" to 6" line downwards
  • make that line 1'4" na joint to previous line of 6" to make a slanted lines
  • then further 6" staright line from both the sides and make small slanted lines again and then join then at the bottom

  • Now go to the default 3D view using the UCS icon
  • Select the Line command by typing L or Line in the command box
  • Draw a line of length 10' in the XY plane as shown in the figure below

  • Select the Sweep tool on the ribbon tab or by typing Sweep in the command box
  • Select the object to sweep as the Astho Grider that we created earlier and press enter
  • Now, select the path as Line that we created earlier and press Enter

  • After Creating the sweep from the front view of the girder, delete the previous one
  • Now we can see the wireframe sketch of the AASTHO girder

  • The 3D model of the AASTHO type of girder has been sketched successfully as per the drawing

RESULT:-

  • 3D view of AASTHO Type Girder is in image below.

4. Create a 3d Model of a drop column with panel as shown in section and isometric view.

Procedure :-

  • Draw the circle of size 1'6".
  • Extrude the circle with 10'.

  • Now draw the corner.
  • Select radius as 9".
  • Selct te Top radius and type 1'6".
  • Type height as 1'.
  • Now place the frustum of cone on the circle that is extruded.

  • Now draw the rectangle of size 4'6" X 4'6".
  • Extrude the rectangle with height of 6".
  • Use the top vie to place the rectangle on cone.
  • Now place the rectangle on the cone that is place on the extruded circle.

RESULT:-

  • 3d Model of a drop column with panel is in image below.

5. Create the 3d model of a wall as shown in Figure. Consider wall thickness as 9”.

COMMANDS USED:

  • Units
  • Limits
  • Rectangle
  • Line
  • Offset
  • Extrude
  • Move
  • Join
  • Trim
  • Union

Procedure :-

  • Draw the rectangle of length 10' and width 9".
  • Draw the line in the center parallel to 9" side,
  • Offset the line with 1.5' both the side for door.
  • Select the boundary at both the side.

  • Now Extrude the rigions with the height of 12'6".
  • And Extrude the door with 7' height.

  • From front view, draw the line in the center.
  • Draw the slant line at both the last corener line.
  • Select both the extruded boundaries.
  • And move it to downward side with slant lines.
  • Trim the Unwanted lines.
  • Now select all 3 triangle lines and join it.
  • Create the region of triangle.
  • Extrude the triangle at back side.
  • Now Union all the boundaries.
