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

1. AIM: TO CREATE 3D MODEL OF FURNITURE

INTRODUCTION: The process of creating any surface of an object in three dimensions by using tools in autocad is called 3D modeling.

In this 3D model, it can convey an object's size, shape and texture.
There are three major types of 3D modeling in CAD software:
  1. wireframe modeling
  2. surface modeling
  3. solid modeling

COMMANSD USED-

  • rectangle tool
  • extrude
  • subtract
  • UCS
  • box
  • offset
  • move
  • sweep
  • cone
  • region
  • boundry

PROCEDURE:

  • open autocad 2021 file.
  • set the unit as impherical.
  • units-set to engineering with precision 0'0"
  • set the limax as 100,100.
  • zoom command-all,set the page.
  • from setting switch to 3D modelling.
  • set to top view- 2D wireframe.
  • draw a rectangle of dimension 3'x3' in xy plane.
  • explode the rectangle
  • offset three sides at distance 2".

  • enter boundary command and select offset lines,make a region.
  • similalry repeat the same for other two sides and whole rectangle.
  • go to default view by clicking on home icon.
  • select extrude from ribbon and select all region.
  • extrude at the height in z-axis 2'6".
  • select subtract command,select the rectangle-enter.
  • select smaller rectangle-enter.
  • select union command and select all object-enter.
  • use linear dimension and measure by switching UCS.

RESULT:

2. AIM:Create the 3d Model of an Isolated footing

INTRODUCTION: given footing is an isolated footimg/tappering footing of diemsnions 1'x1' at the top and 2'x2' at bottom with 6" pcc bed.

command used here is tappering option in box command .

PROCEDURE:

  • set the view to top and 2d wireframe.
  • draw a recatngle of each side 2".
  • select offset command ,select recatngle and enter the distance as 1'.

  • move to default view.
  • enter move command,select 1'x1' rectangle and move at a distance of 3'.
  • select loft command,select two rectangle and enter.
  • now extrude the rectangle of size 2'x2' with height 6".

RESULT:

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

INTRODUCTION: aastho are type of grider,which has expanded the width of upper and lower flange.

these types are mainly used in bridge construction.

PROCEDURE:

  • set the view to top and wireframe.
  • draw a set of rectangle od dimension 10'x6",10'X1'4",10'x1'6" and 10'x1'.
  • now allign the rectangle in bigger rectangle using geometric center.
  • set the view to SW isometric.
  • extrude recatngle upto given heights,for example for 10'x6" extrude upto height 1'6".
  • follow the same of remaining.
  • allign the recatngle upto certain height usig move command,example move rectangle 10'x6" at height 0,0,1'.
  • now tamper last second rectangle by selecting width face,specifying base point and axis,enter angle as -15.
  • similary for 2nd recatngle, neter angle as -45.
  • use union command to join the extruded section.

RESULT:

4. AIM:Create a 3d Model of a drop column with panel

INTRODUCTION: Drop panels are the rectangular portion provided above the column and below the slab in order to restrict slab from getting sheared and undergo rupture.

PROCEDURE:

  • select the top view with wireframe.
  • draw a circle of diameter1'6".
  • extrude the circle at height 10' in default view.
  • move back to top view and,draw a recatgle of sides 3'6".
  • place the rectangle on circle using onsnap or enter distance as 0,0,10.
  • extrud ethe recatngle at height of 1'.
  • select tamfer command from solidedit tool and select the face .
  • sepcify the base point ad enter agle as 45 degree.
  • repeat the same on other side or use loop/chain command in tamper.

  • back to top view and draw a rectangle of side 4'6".
  • move back to isometric view and extrude at height 6".
  • place the recatngle on top of 3'6" rectangle using UCS icon or distance command.
  • use union to make object one.

RESULT:

5.AIM:Create the 3d model of a wall

PROCEDURE:
  • set the top view and wireframe.
  • draw a rectangle of dimension 10'x9"
  • noW explode the rectangle.
  • offset the width on both side at distance of 3.5'.

  • enter boundry command-select the point-convert to region.
  • set the view to default isometric.
  • extrude the corner region upto height 12'6".
  • now move the door rectangle to heigt 0,0,7'.

  • now extrude the moved rectangle upto 12.5'.
  • set the view to front and draw a triagnle of sides 5.5' and base 10'.
  • make traignle as region using boundry command.
  • ectrude the traignle at distace 9" towards y axis.
  • use preepull or grip to reduce the recatngle wall.
  • use union command to join all extruded walls.

RESULT: 3d model of wall is drawn
