Creation of Multiple viewports, Scaling the drawing and setting in Template in AutoCad
AIM
To create a layout of the plan and section-A of the project in challenge 7 using the template And use the MV command to create the viewport of the size from the given figure.
INTRODUCTION
- Plans and Sections are different types of drawings used by architects, to graphically represent a building design
- A plan drawing is a drawing on a horizontal plane showing a view from above.
- An Elevation drawing is drawn on a vertical plane showing a vertical depiction.
- A section drawing is also a vertical depiction but one that cuts through space showing what lies within.

- Offset command
- Hatch command
- Dimlinear command
- Dimstyle command
- Units command
- Extend command
- Fillet command
- Trim command
- Join command
- Line weight command

- Next select the single text command to indicate the parts in the section plan
- Finally draw the section line in the section plan as in the below figure.
STEP-3
- First select the layout at left side corner of the screen.
- After selecting the layout rename the layout as floor plan.
- Next give MV command and select the template.
- After selecting the template, select the Tutorial-mArch as shown in the figure.
- After selecting the template, rename the template text using the attedit command.
- First insert the floor plan in the paper using the MV command.
- After clicking the MV command to drag the paper with rectangle shape with standard size
- After dragging rectangle on the template paper, the current floor plan will be appear, then we put them in to the scale of 1:50.
- Next edit the template box, using the attedit command
- First select paper spacing command, then after we use the attedit command to edit the template box, as shown in the below figure
- After editing the template box, use the plot command to covert the drawing in to the .pdf file, as shown in the figure
- Finally convert the DWG to pdf file using the plot command as shown in the above figure
- Next select the Al paper size for fit the drawing in the paper as shown in the below figure.

AIM
To create the layout of the kitchen and providing hatches to it using the autocad in detail Need to use the scale given in the figure and need to use the A4 size page for the layout.
INTRODUCTION
- kitchen layout is the most important part of designing your perfect kitchen.
- It's the layout that will determine how you cook, how you eat and how you socialise So whether you're totally remodelling the kitchen,
- buying new appliances or simply replacing the cabinets, we've included the top five most common kitchen layouts to help inspire you.

- Next draw another line from the previous line with the length of 3200mm vertically upwards.
- Next again draw the line from previous line with the length of 4300 mm horizontally backwards at the top.
- Next join the first line and the last line which we have drawn previously. Next offset the four sides with the offset of 20mm outside.
- Next offset the line inside with the offset command with the length of 600mm, including the fridge.
- Afterwards draw the fridge separately with other dimensions in the kitchen layout.
- Next need to draw the line opposite side to create the parts of kitchen.
- Next divide the seven parts downsides with different dimensions compared to the upper side portion Next leave the space left and right corners with the length of 35mm at the top and Bottom
- Next put the dimensions for every part in the diagram. Next indicate the door as D2.
- Next have use the single text command and indicate the parts where ever it requires with single text command.
- And put the dimensions for every part in the diagram.
- Next draw the snack counter with the length of 600mm and width of 900mm, and draw the circles to create the hub in the middle at the bottom of the kitchen
- And create the windows using the line command and trim command, which is shown in the below figure
STEP-2

AIM
To create the section view of an industrial building. And need to provide appropriate hatches and dimensions where ever required.
INTRODUCTION
- In reference to architectural drawing, the term section typically describes a cut through the body of a building, perpendicular to the horizon line
- A section drawing is one that shows a vertical cut transecting, typically along a primary axis, an object or building
- A section diagram is a view of the building that slices through the building to better see the specific aspects of the building better
- This drawing is particularly interesting because it cuts through and goes underground (to the new parking area) as well.

- Next draw the thickness of pump room slab with the different layers using the line command.
STEP-2
- Next draw the circle with radius of 500mm, and enter the text in the circle as given in the figure.
- Next use the single text command to enter the text where ever required in the section view of industrial drawing
- Finally use the hatch command to hatch the walls and floor slabs as drawn in the below figure.
- Finally use the Dimlinear command to put the dimensions wherever required in the drawing.
STEP-3
- Next select the MV command to create the new view
- Then after when we see on the screen the view manager tab will display then select the view option
- After selecting the new option in the view manager as shown in the figure, and select the boundary on that tab as current display
- Next create the 1st view using the MV command, that we take the scale as 1:100
- Again, select the MV command and select the new option and create the 2nd view as shown in the figure
- Next create the 2nd view using the MV command, that take the scale as 1:30
- Now create the 3rd view using the MV command, that we take the scale as 1:30
- Finally convert the DWG to pdf file using the plot command as shown in the above figure.
- Next select the Al paper size for fit the drawing in the paper as shown in the below figure
- Next select the pen assignments as monochrome.ctb.. Then select the apply to layout and click the ok option.
- Then finally the dwg file is exported to the pdf file as shown in the below figure.
RESULT
Created the section view of an industrial building. Used the scales given in the figure and created the multiple viewports using the MV command, in the autocad in detail.
