INTRODUCTION :-

AutoCAD– Autodesk’s Computer Aided Design.

It is developed by Autodesk company in 1980.

Autodesk is an U.S.A based company and its headquarter in California, U.S.A.

It is widely used in industry for 2D drawing and 3D modeling.

In another way we can say that AutoCAD is a designing course , which is performed by the help of computer.

Version of AutoCAD :- AutoCAD software was firstly launched by Autodesk

company in Dec. 1982. John Walker Developer of AutoCAD. It comes in India in 1988. The first version of AutoCAD was R1 after that

R2,R3,R4…………… and so on. In 2000,Autodesk launched a version of AutoCAD 2000

after that 2001,2002…… so on. There are total 30 versions of AutoCAD till March 2015. This time, we have the latest version of AutoCAD is

2016,which is launched on 27th march 2015.

Advantages of AutoCAD :-

Quickly create designs.Improved quality over hand drafting.Facilitates easy modification and revision of drawings.Designs can be drawn with greater accuracy.Time saving tool.Reduced the manual work-force.AutoCAD software is cost effective and highly affordable.

How AutoCAD works :-

There are co-ordinate systems used in AutoCAD.

Every drawing shows its co-ordinate.

There is so many commands like copy, move, rotate, mirror in 2D, path array, rectangular array, polar array & more.

Different types of drawing can be made in the same time by using a command that is LAYER.

Using line , arc , circle , rectangle , ellipse & polygon , so many drawing of different type can be made.

AutoCAD GUI :-

Way to Provide command :-

Command line

Toolbars

Drop-down menus

You can pick any one(s) that you are comfortable with.

CO-Ordinate System :- Everything that we draw in AutoCAD is exact i.e., In the

presence of Co-ordinates.

All object drawn on 2D screen is based on simple X-Y co-ordinate system.

We are drawing a line, so we have two points A(-10,-4) and B(9,6). As shown in figure in next slide.

CO-Ordinate System :-

Some 2D Commands :-

Chamfer (Cha) Fillet (F)

Copy (CO) Mirror (MI)

Some 2D Commands :-

Scale (SC) Array (AR)

Extend Join (J)

(EX)

Hatching :- Hatching is used to add shaded patterns to objects and

shapes within an Autocad drawing. Hatch patterns can be used to indicate a material to be used, such as a concrete hatch.

You will pick:Pattern Scalepoints

Drawing Solids :- Solids contain the “mass properties” of 3D objects. You can use the Solids toolbar for readily accessible objects

Box Cylinder Wedge

You can use the Boolean operations of more complicated shapes.• Union (join two solids)• Subtract (carve out the second solid from the first)• Intersection (only the common area)

Torus Cone Sphere

3D Commands

Extrude:- • If you “extrude” a surface into the third dimension, you

simply add a thickness in section. This basically is same as creating a “solid” object

Extrude 5 units 5 units

Extrude -4 units

4 units

Career Options :-

1. Drafting Professional.

2. 2D and3D Plan Developer.

3. CAD Engineer( Civil, Electrical and Mechanical).

4. Architecture and Interior Designing.
