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

Aim: To create a 3D Furniture element using AutoCAD software.

Commands Used:

Command name	Command Shortcut	Command Use
Units	UN	To change Units suitable to your Project.
Line	L	Used to Create a Line.
Poly Line	PL	Used to Create a Ploy Line.
Rectangle	REC	Used to Create a Rectangle.
Extrude	EXTRUDE	Used to change Object 2D to 3D.
Dimension Linear	DLI	Used to give Dimension to Object.
Dimension Diameter	DDI	Used to give Diameter Dimension to Object.
Fillet	F	Used to change object edges to Smooth.
Zoom	Z	Used to Zoom object in sheet
Zoom for Exist sheet	Z (Enter) & E (Enter)	Used to Zoom the object and Fit to sheet.

Procedure:

• First of all open autocad software and create a new sheet which is suitable to our project.
• change the unit according to work like change metric to imperial.
• Use Poly-Line PL Command Draw line.
• Use Extrude Command to the blocked object according to recpective dimensions.
• Use DLI Dimension Linear Command to give dimension to Object.
• To give Dimension in vertical direction change the face of object and give dimension using the DLI command.
• Go to Layout Rename the Layout name using Zoom Z Command Fit the object to sheet.
