Creation of geometries by Coordinate system methods using AutoCad

AIM: To create the geometries of figure P1 using all the coordinates system methods in AutoCAD.

INTRODUCTION:

  • AutoCAD is a commercial computer-aided design (CAD) and drafting software application. Developed and marketed by Autodesk. AutoCAD was first released in December 1982 as a desktop app running on microcomputers with internal graphics controllers.

In the follwing problem we are using all the coordinates system. The coordinates systems are as follows:

i) Absoulte Coordinate System

ii) Relative Rectangular Coordinate System

iii) Relative Polar Coordinate System

iv) Direct distance entry

PROCEDURE:

Step 1: Open AutoCAD by clicking on the AutoCAD icon on the Desktop

Step 2: Start a new project by clicking Ctrl + N on the keyboard. A "Create new drawing" dialogue box will appear.

Step 3: Choose Imperial Template and Decimal units

Step 4: Commands used for different coordinate system are as follows:

i) Absolute Coordinate System:

  • Choose the line tool by typing the command L or Line.
  • Specify first point: 2,1
  • Specify next point or [Undo]: 8,1

  • Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: 2,7
  • Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: close
  • Type command "save". A "Save drawing as" dialogue box will appear. Choose the directory and file name and click the save button.

  • Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: close
  • Type command "save". A "Save drawing as" dialogue box will appear. Choose the directory and file name and click the save button.

iii) Relative Polar Coordinate System:

  • Choose the line tool by typing the command L or Line.
  • Specify first point: 2,1
  • Specify next point or [Undo]: @6<0
  • Specify next point or [Undo]: @1<90
  • Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: @5<180
  • Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: @4<90

  • Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: @6<180
  • Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: close
  • Type command "save". A "Save drawing as" dialogue box will appear. Choose the directory and file name and click the save button.

iv) Direct Distance Entry:

  • Choose the line tool by typing the command L or Line.
  • Specify first point: 2,1
  • Specify next point or [Undo]: Position the cursor and enter distance 6
  • Specify next point or [Undo]: Position the cursor and enter distance 1
  • Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: Position the cursor and enter distance 5
  • Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: Position the cursor and enter distance 4
  • Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: Position the cursor and enter distance 5
  • Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: Position the cursor and enter distance 1
  • Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: Position the cursor and enter distance 6
  • Specify next point or [Close/Undo]: close
  • Type command "save". A "Save drawing as" dialogue box will appear. Choose the directory and file name and click the save button.

RESULT: The final result will be same for all the procedure mentioned above. And the result figure is given below:

AIM: To create the geometries of figure P2 using all the coordinates system methods in AutoCAD.
