PROJECT
AIM - Creating a 3D rendered model for a Residential Building in AutoCad.
INTRODUCTION- COMMANDS USED FOR DRAWING THE 3D RENDERED VIEW OF BUILDING ARE
- Extrude
- Sweep
- Union
- Subtract
- Intersect
- Revolve
STEPS FOR CREATING A PLAN
- Open Auto Cad.
- In the right left corner click on the settings icon that is the icon of workspace.
- Select 3d modelling.
- Enter UN (Units) command in the command box and change the type as feets and select precision as 0’0”
- Now enter Dim style in command box and modify the settings and select primary units as feets and give precision as 0’0”
- Select line command and draw in top or 2D mode.
- Total plan area is 50’x44’.
- Line command is used to draw the plan.
- Command X line and draw line in X Direction as well as in Y direction.
- Trim the unwanted corner lines.
- Offset 9” for wall.
- Line command is used to draw windows and doors.
- Size of window is 3’ X 4’.
- Size of doors are 4’ x8’
- For staircase rise is 6”, base id 3’x1’
- Mtext command is used to give naming to the plan.
OBJECTIVE:
- To draw the plan using AutoCAD 2D.
- To project walls to convert the plan from AutoCAD 2d to AutoCAD 3D.
- To design the staircase
- Designing and placing of 3D doors, swinging louver,sliding window, normal window and glass grill.
- Adding lights and colouring of walls
- Adding chajja and 3D mirroring of the flat.
- Adding lift and roof.
- Designing and placement of staircase rails.
- Adding mumty, parapet wall and copying floors
- Rendering.
Floor Plan


STEPS FOR 3D PLAN-
- In the right left corner click on the settings icon that is the icon of workspace.
- Select 3d modelling.
- Command boundary and in that select region.
- Create boundaries as well as regions of the plan.
- Extrude the regions that are the walls to the height of 11’ from bottom.
- Floor to floor height of the building is 11’.

- Create different type of layers using layer properties like 3D walls, window frames, slab, window glass etc as desired.
- Assign colors to each layer separately
- Line command is used to draw the windows and doors.
- Extrude the windows and doors to the suitable depth.
- Rotated 3D is used to rotate the objects as in windows and doors.
- Move and copy command is used to move the windows to their desired locations.
- Command polyline at the terrace and create the parapet wall at the top of the building.
- Create the staircase and extrude it to the distance of 20’.

STEPS FOR RENDERING-
- Go to the visualize tab from the fibbon.
- This will give access to the panels like light, sunlight, Camera, Animations, Render and Views.
- Create different views using the camera anf render the building.
- Place the lights at the desired locations.



Final Result with a rendered view, Realistic view of the complete residential building is as shown:
