Creation of Multiple viewports, Scaling the drawing and setting in Template in AutoCad

1. Create a layout of the Plan and Section A of the project in Challenges 7, using the template Tutorial-mArch.dwt in a scale as given in the Figure. Use the MV command to create the viewport of the size as shown in Figure. Also, use ATTEDIT command to edit the information in the title block. Use A1 size for the layout. Take a plot.

Aim: To Create a layout of the Plan and Section A of the project in Challenges 7, using the template Tutorial-mArch.dwt in a scale as given in the Figure and to use the MV command to create the viewport of the size as shown in Figure and to use ATTEDIT command to edit the information in the title block.

Introduction: The given figures are layout of the previous Project. The purpose of creating a layout is to provide the created projects in standard paper size for print pupose. The usage of mview enables to provide multiple views of the project depending upon the requirement. The mview command can be used to provide important parts of the project by creating multiple view ports. As the layouts of the previous projects are taken, previous project files are used.

Steps:

• The 1st step is to select layout command and choose temlate option and Tutorial-mArch.dwt template file is used.
• Then layout with the selected template is created in A1 paper size.
• Then two rectangles are drawn of size 400x445 and 375x445 respectively in the layout
• After using the mview command and object option the drawn two rectangles are converted into viewports.
• One for the plan and other for the section A diagrams respectively
• Then using the ms command the model space is adjusted to a scale of 1:50 and using pan command the daigrams are fixed.Then using ps command edit are done paper space.
• Then using mtext command texts are inserted in paper space
• Finally using Attedit command the attributes which are predefined such as title,project name etc., are edited as per the requirement and using the print command the layout is converted into pdf.

Results: The layout of the project is created with multiple view ports sucessfully and the attributes are edited as per the requirement.

2. Create a layout of the Kitchen drawn in Challenge 9 as shown in Figure. Use the scale as shown in the Figure. Use A4 Size page for the layout. Take a plot.

Aim: To create a layout of the Kitchen drawn in Challenge 9 as shown in figure and to use the scale as per the given conditions.

Introduction: The given drawing is kitchen plan of challenge 9 which is to be created as layout with multiple viewports in A4 paper size as per the requirement. As the layouts of the previous projects are taken, previous project files are used.The given layout consists of 4 viewports for different views of the project.

Steps:

• Initially using layout command a layout of A4 paper size is created.
• Then using mview command and 4 option 4 viewports are created in the layout.
• Then using mspace command modelspace is edited.
• The top 2 view port is set with scale of 1:1 with the given view and the view is locked using the lock option from mview command.
• The bottom 2 viewport is set with scale of 1:2 with the given view and the view is locked using the lock option from mview command.
• Then using ps command the layout is switched to paper space editing and texts are inserted using the mstext command and the size is set as per the layout size.
• Finally using the plot command the created layout with multiple viewports is converted into pdf.

Results: The given kitchen layout is created sucessfully with multiple viewports and plotted.

3. Create a layout of the section created in Challenges 9.

Use scale as mentioned in the Figure. Use MV command create multiple viewports. Take a plot.

Aim: To create a layout of the section created in Challenges 9 and to use scale as mentioned in the figure and to use MV command create multiple viewports.

Introduction: The given section diagram is project of challenge 9. The given layout consists of three viewports with two different scales. A4 paper size layout is used.

Steps:

• Initially using layout command a layout is created.
• Then using the mview command three viewports are created one at the top and two at the bottom.
• Then using mspace command the two bottom viewports are arranged with the view as per the requirement with the scale of 1:30.
• The top viewport consists of full diagram with scale of 1:100 and the viewports are locked after setting using the lock option in mview command.
• Then swicthing to paper space using ps command texts are included in the paper space.
• Then the created layput is plotted and converted into a pdf.

Results: The given section view layout is created sucessfully with multiple viewports as per the given scale.
