INTRODUCTION :

1) Layout :

  1. Layout viewports are objects that display views of model space.
  2. One can create, scale, and place viewport in paper space on a layout.
  3. On each layout, one can create one or more layout viewports.
  4. Each layout viewport is like a closed circuit TV monitor of a view of the model at a scale and orientation that user specify.

2) Plotting drawing

  1. Plot command is used to print the file or drawing in AutoCAD.
  2. Plots the view in the current viewport on the Model tab or the current view in the layout, depending on which tab pu select to plot.
  3. Plots all of the objects in the current viewport, except objects on frozen layers. From a layout tab, all the geometry in paper space is plotted.

INTRODUCTION:

1) Layout :

  1. Layout viewports are objects that display views of model space.
  2. One can create, scale, and place viewport in paper space on a layout.
  3. On each layout, one can create one or more layout viewports.
  4. Each layout viewport is like a closed circuit TV monitor of a view of the model at a scale and orientation that user specify.

PROCEDURE:

STEP 1:

  1. Open AutoCAD application.
  2. Type "Un" and press enter.
  3. Set Units to scale inserted content as "milimeter" and press Enter.
  4. Sets limits by typing "limits" in command box.

STEP 2:

  1. Below counter plan:
  2. First draw the line horizontally with the length of 4300mm.
  3. Next draw another line from the previous line with the length of 3200mm vertically upwards.
  4. Next again draw the line from previous line with the length of 4300 mm horizontally backwards at the top.
  5. Next have to join the first line and the last line which we have drawn previously.
  6. Next offset the four sides with the offset of 20mm outside.
  7. Next offset the line inside with the offset command with the length of 600mm, including the fridge.
  8. Afterwards we draw the fridge separately with other dimensions in the kitchen layout.
  9. Next draw the line opposite side to create the parts of kitchen.
  10. Next divide the seven parts downside with different dimensions compared to the upper side portion.
  11. Next leave the space left and right corners with the length of 35mm at the top and bottom.
  12. Next put the dimensions for the every part in the diagram.
  13. Next indicate the door as D2.

STEP 3:

  1. Next use the single text command
  2. indicate the parts where ever it requires with single text command.
  3. put the dimensions for the every part in the diagram.
  4. Next draw the snack counter with the length of 600mm and width of 900mM.
  5. draw the circles to create the hub in the middle at the bottom of the kitchen.
  6. create the windows using the line command and trim command.

Step:-3

  1. Firstly select the layout at left side corner of the screen.
  2. After selecting the layout rename the layout as floor plan.
  3. Next create the 1st view using the MV command, that we take the scale as 1:1.
