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

Aim: To Create a 3 dimensional model of the residential building with a rendered view.

Manual Viewport MV Used to Create a individual View port for Different Views.

Commands Used for 3D:

Command Name (3D) Shortcut Use
Extrude EXTRUDE Used to change object from 2D to 3D
Presspull PRESSPULL Used to Extrude the wall in a plan
Smooth Object MESHSMOOTH Used to smooth the surface of the object
Union UNION Used to attach the object
Subtract SUBTRACT Used to subtract the object (used in door openings)
Intersect INTERSECT create a 3D solid and 2D region from selected overlapping solids and regions
Slice SLICE Used to cut the 3D object
Materials MATERIALS Used to give paint to the object
Polysolid POLYSOLID Used to create a 3D wall like polysolid
Render RENDER Used to render the 3D model

Introduction:

The main objective of this project is to understand about to create a Plan in 2D, then convert it into 3D using AutoCAD 3D, applying materials and rendering.

AutoCAD is primarily used for generating 2D sketches. While it is possible to create 3D objects, AutoCAD is built around a flat, sketch-based interface. There is a wide range of pre-defined 3D objects in AutoCAD. These objects are cylinders, spheres and wedges and many more. But then users use 2D objects and modify them using the 3D commands accordingly. So, AutoCAD 3D commands like Extrude, Sweep, Revolve, and Union are used by the users.Also, the user must know the importance of the Viewport feature

Procedure:

  1. First of all using 2D drawing commands (Line,Poly-Line,Rectangle,Offset) & Editing Commands (Trim,Extend) start the drawing of proposed residential building with accurate dimensions and Follow indian standards.
  2. After creating floor plan outer and partition walls we make it that plan from 2D to 3D by walls Extrude using Presspull Command
  3. after that we set door and window openings using Subtract Command
  4. And Design doors and windows individually using 3D commands(Extrude, Presspull, Subtract commands) and attached to the object drawing
  5. Next apply the Material to the all Walls, doors, windows, in plan using Materials Command
  6. Finally Render the 3D structure using Render Command.
  7. All Commands are shown above which are used in project i submitted.

Result:

I Submit an AutoCAD file which shows all details of my 3D model with View port.
