Project 2_Creating a 3D rendered model for a Residential Building in AutoCad
PROJECT- 2
AIM:
Creating a 3D-rendered model for an AutoCAD residential Building.
INTRODUCTION
COMMANDS USED FOR DRAWING THE 3D-RENDERED VIEW OF THE BUILDING ARE AS FOLLOWS.
• Extrude- Location: Draw > Modeling > Extrude
This AutoCAD 3D Extrude command allows the user to create a 3D object by extruding a 2D face along a line or path.
• Sweep- Location: Draw > Modeling > Sweep
This command helps the user to extrude the 2D objects without the 2D face being orthogonal to the beginning of the path.
• Union- Location: Modify > Solids Editing > Union
This AutoCAD 3D command allows the user to combine two objects converting them into one single object.
• Subtract- Location: Modify > Solids Editing > Subtract
This command is opposite to the union command; this command works when there is a common area in both objects. Then this command subtracts object A from object B.
• Intersect- Location: Modify > Solid Editing > Intersect
With this AutoCAD 3D command the user is left with the area that is common to both the objects.
• Revolve- Location: Draw > Modeling > Revolve
This AutoCAD 3D command creates a 3D solid by revolving a 2D object around an axis.
STEPS FOR CREATING A PLAN
• Open Auto Cad.
• In the right-left corner click on the settings icon which is the icon of the workspace.
• Select 3d modelling.
• Enter the UN (Units ) command in the command box and change the type to decimal and select precision as 0.0
• Now enter Dim style in the command box and modify the settings and select primary units as architectural and give precision as 0.0
• Select the line command and draw in top or 2D mode.
• Line command is used to draw the plan.
• Command X line and draw a line in X Direction as well as in Y direction.
• Trim the unwanted corner lines.
• Create plan view as required dimensions.
STEPS FOR CREATING THE 3D PLAN.
• In the right-left corner click on the settings icon which is the icon of the 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 10' from the bottom.
• Floor to floor height of the building is 10'.
• Create different types of layers using layer properties like 3D walls, window frames, slabs, 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 a suitable depth.
• Rotated 3D is used to rotate objects like 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.
• Command polyline and create the plinth of the building of 3' at the bottom.
• Create the staircase and extrude it to a distance of 3'-9".
• Create the mummy separately and place it on the top of the building.
STEPS FOR RENDERING
• Go to the visualize tab from the ribbon.
• This will give access to the panels like light, sunlight, Camera, Animations, Render, and Views.
• Create different views using the camera and render the building.
• Place the lights at the desired locations.
