Ex.No:01 COMMANDS USED IN AUTO CAD
Date:
AIM:-
To study about special features & advantages of auto cad & about the various
drawing, editing in auto cad detail.
Cad is computer aided design & draft. Auto cad is mostly widely used cad
software develop by auto desk using auto cad.
Auto cad is a drafting package of use in cad. There are drafting package like cad
key DIAP, CAMD, Delights etc. Auto cad is one of the popular cad packages.
It is a general purpose computer aided design we can draw geometrical entries
rotate & trim.
Auto cad is used to create two methods.
COMMAND MODE
MENU MODE
COMMAND MODE:-
In this mode the uses has to type various command & keyboard. The software
reports with opposite to help the used to the input. The necessary in to a promps to help
the uses input.
MENU MODE:-
In this mode the uses of software is through a menu. This is located on the right
side of the screen. The menu can be selected using mouse.
BENEFITS OF CAD:-
The following are the advantages of the cad.
Improved engineering productively.
Reduced engineering personal requirement.
Drawing modification or eraser to intake.
STARTING AUTO CAD:-
To starting Auto cad is only one of the adopted
METHOD:-
Double click auto cad 2000 on the windows. There are took has available but the
frequency used area draw modify object properties & standard tool bar.
STATUS BAR:-
It is the bottom of the auto cad window the various commands are snap, ortho,
model, title.
COMMAND WINDOWS:-
It is an area which commands typed & current commands are displayed.
WINDOW:-
The auto cad screen can be converted into text window for display. That is history
of the current auto cad drawing command to enter text F2.
CROSS CURSOR:-
It is used to indicate. The current position of drawing point.
CO-ORDINATE SYSTEM:-
Auto cad support to the two type of co-ordinate system.
World co-ordinate system.
User co-ordinate system.
WORLD CO-ORDINATE SYSTEM:-
In this co-ordinate system the x, y, z co-ordinate are measured with reference to
tired again.
USER CO-ORDINATE SYSTEM:-
The user co-ordinate system provides a movable co-ordinate system for 3-D
drawing.
UTILITY COMMAND & DRAWING SOLS:-
These are several commands that convert basic auto cad function.
HELP COMMAND:-
You can see the help command to obtain a line auto cad in care you have
command is entered auto cad points a message to remained you at the availability of
help facility.
DRAWING EDITOR EXIT:-
When creating a new drawing returns to the main menu but it does not capture.
The drawing by mistakes of you used the commands you will lose of your will lose all
your drawing section.
END COMMANDS:-
The Exit command return to main menu but it does not update. The drawing by
mistakes of you used to commands you will lose of your drawing section.
SAVE COMMAND:-
You can see & command to save your drawing section. This exits the drawing
editor rotating the main menu. This perfect your work, from power textile, you can do this
work save command.
LIMITS COMMAND:-
Using the limits command you, can desirable. The drawing limits for the current
drawing & component its drawn on a standard size is limited the auto cad scaling
facilities available in cad.

Aim:-
To draw the plan, elevation and section of a industrial building

using the various commands in AutoCAD
Software Used:-
AutoCAD 2008
Command Used And Their Description:-
Limits - reset the model space limits

Zoom It is used to zoom the object created.
Units Used to set the current format for units of measure.
Line Line commands allows creating a line where the end points allow
creating a line where the end points are dimensional co-ordinates.
Line type using this command different type of lines can be used to
draw object.
Offset create a news object at a specified distance from an existing
object or through a specified point.
Fillet - This command is basically used for rounding off edges
Trim trims off an object using cutting edges defined by other objects.
Break removes only a part of an object.
Arc Used to create an arc segment. Methods are:
1. 3 Points,
2. Start, Center, End
3. Start, Center, Angle
4. Center, Start, End
5. Center, Start, Angle
6. Start, Center, Length
7. Center, Start, Length
8. Start, End, Angle
9. Start, End, Radius
10. Start, End, Diameter
11. Continue
Copy- Moves the selected objects from a given square to destination,

learning a copy at the originally selected location.
Rotate- rotate objects around a specified point
Move- moves object to the destination place from the source place
BHatch makes shaded patterns as matter of few picks and clicks away
Extend elongates an object to a boundary defined by other objects
Erase used to erase the unwanted objects
Text creates text object with specified height and orientation
Osnap AutoCAD displays the object snaps tab in drafting setting dialog
box. If we enter osnap at command prompt it presents options on the command
line.
Procedure:
The limits are set before starting the drawing. The lower left corner is set as
default
(0.0000, 0.0000). The upper right corner is changed as per our requirements.
y using units command, set the types as decimal/precision as 0.0000 and
units to scale drag and drop content as millimeters.
By using line command, the outer line of the plan is drawn with the required
dimension
By using offset command, the outer line of the plan is drawn with the required
dimension
By using offset command, the wall thickness of the plan is given as per
requirements.
By using trim command the excess lines are trimmed.
By using line command, each room is drawn as per requirements.
The lines that cannot be trimed using trim command are eliminated by break
command.
Using arc command, the doors are drawn as per the requirements of each room.
Using copy command, the doors are copied if necessary multiply copy is used.
Using rotate command, the doors are rotated as per the required placement for
each room.
Using move command, the doors are moved and fixed in the place on where it
should be placed.
Using rectangle command and offset command, the window is drawn
separately as per the required dimensions.
By changing the line type from continuous to dashed lines, the sun shades and
ventilators are drawn.
The windows, ventilators and sunshades are copied, rotated and moved and
placed in the required place.
Using offset command, the plinth line is drawn.
The elevation is drawn by extending the outer line of the plan using extend
command and unwanted lines are erased using erase command.
The doors, windows, sunshade and parapet are drawn in same distance in
elevation as drawn in same distance in the plan.
The section is drawn on the adjacent side of the elevation by extending the lines.
The various represtations of brickwork, sand filling and concrete are
completed in the section using Bhatch command.
Using save command, the file having plan, elevation and section is saved by
giving the corresponding path name.
Result:
The functional requirements of the residential building is planned and the

plan, section and elevation are drawn in AutoCAD 2004

Plan can be started by using line command
fter completing the outline, offset command is used and the distance is
given as the brick wall thickness.
en door is drawn by using line, arc commands are copied as many times
as needed by using copy command.
door are moved and placed in the portion ascertained for them.
en window is drawn by line, offset command copied as many times as
needed and moved to their respective places
en section line is drawn with an arrow head
fter completing the plan of the residential building its elevation is drawn by
having an extension mode on the drafting setting dialog box by using
OSNAP setting in status bar or by using the command settings.
ation is drawn similar to plan, by using the line command.
fter finishing elevation, cut section is drawn in the similar manner. After
drawing the cut section lines, hatching of brick work, concrete, sand filling, and
floor finish are done by using BHatch command.
Appropriate hatching style is selected from hatch or advanced and a preview
is done. If it is ok, then enter is pressed. If it is not ok esc is pressed and
esc hatching is repeated again.
Before hatching dimensions are marked by using the leader command.
arrow mark lines were drwn by leader command.
aximize any part of the drawing room command is used.
rc command is used to draw arc for the representation of door.
rase command is used to erase any selected object
aximize any part of the drawing room command is used.
save command the file having plan, elevation and section is saved
by giving the corresponding path name.
Result:
Thus the functional requirement of the residential building is planned and

the plan, elevation, section were drawn in AutoCAD 2004.
