Project 2_Creating a 3D rendered model for a Residential Building in AutoCad

Aim:

To create a 3 Dimensional model of a Residential Building with a Rendered View using the 3D commands in AutoCAD.

Introduction:

• he Drafting of 3D objects can be done using the 3D Modelling option in AutoCAD software.
• It helps to create and visualise the 3D objects which are created.
• We can also render the image after assigning certain material properties to the objects such as Wall Paint, Furniture etc.,
• The various commands used in Creating the 3D models are:
  • Extrude
  • Region
  • Boundary
  • Press and Pull
  • Sweep
  • Circle
  • Rectangle
  • UCS
  • Copy
  • Move
  • Dimension Linear
  • Pyramid
  • Cone
  • Revolve
  • Solid Edit
  • Fillet Edge
  • Chamfer
  • 3D Mirror
  • 3D Align
  • Rendering
  • Material Library
  • Rendening Properties
  • Subtract
  • Union
  • Render View
  • Material Properties
  • UCS Manager
  • View Manager
  • UCS
  • Illumination Settings
  • Light Settings

Procedure:

• Draft a Plan as per the requirement either in Engineering Units or Architechtural or Decimal Unit System.
• Now create different views for different types of view in View manager and give naming to the respective views.
• Using Extrude and Union commands draft a 3D view of the Plan of the Building.
• Create regions for the required areas using either Region Command or Boundary command.
• Provide different layers for different set of solids such as Wall and Door Frames etc.,
• After creating a 3D solid for the plan as per the elevation provided.
• Use the Light setting such as Bright Light or Focus Light or Distant Light.
• Give naming for different types of Lighting provided and change their properties such as Intensity and Angle of focus as per requirement.
• Give the material properties to the walls and other object with the help of Material properties manager.
• Change the scale of the material with the help of commands available.
• Now we can render the image through Image Render Option.
• Change the quality of Render and Time of rendering in the Render Properties manager.
• Save the Rendered Image in the Form of either JPEG or PNG as per requirement.

Result:

The 3 Dimensional Model and a Rendered Image of a Residential Building are created using AutoCAD.

The respective Drawing and Rendered image are attached.
