Introduction to CAD Applications CAD as a digital tool for Engineering

Engineering needs many Planning and Implementation Tools. Drafting and Designing are important tools for Engineering.

Usually Drafting is done using the Drawing sheets, Boards, Drafters and other Drawing Instruments. With advent of computers the scene has changed. Now Computer Software Applications are used for Drawing and Designing the Engineering Plans.

The CAD or CADD The Computer Aided Designing (CAD) or Computer Aided Drafting (CADD) are the terms used for using computers for drawing and designing applications under various platforms. The Mainframe and Super computers use CAD/CADD workstations for creation of Engineering drawings and Designs.

The CAD Applications. CAD applications softwares prevalent today are AutoCAD, ZWCAD, IntelliCAD, Pro-E etc. These applications are manufactured by various companies and are specialised for various areas of drawing and designing.

Opening a Drawing File.

Use file -> Open through Menu Bar or File open command from quick menu on the top left corner. Understanding the difference between a Drawing and a Template. Using Zoom Options. Using Pan Options. Saving a Drawing File

Opening a New Drawing Page Use File -> New Option or

Click the New File Button from the Quick Selection Menu. Select the acad.dwt (the autocad default drawing template) file when creating a new drawing file.

Making the First Drawing Line Command: Used to create straight line by joining two points. Select the Line Command option from Drawing Tool bar or Drawing Menu Bar or Give Line Command at Command Prompt, the shortcut command l can also given. The command area will respond by asking to select the first point of the line: select any point on the drawing screen or provide a co-ordinate point say 0,0.

Point Selection Methods Absolute Co-ordinate point selection method. Point is selected by providing the absolute coordinate point : x,y Relative Co-ordinate point selection method. A point is selected as displacement from the previously selected point : @∆ξ, ∆ψ Πολαρ Χο−ορδινατε ποιντ σελεχτιον µετηοδ.

The External References method can also be invoked from : Tools -> Palettes -> External References

Moving, Copying, Scaling an image in the drawing can be done similar to how we do for other drawing objects. Brightness, Contrast and Fade settings can be done on an Image.

Region Regions are two-dimensional enclosed areas that have physical properties such as centroids or centers of mass. We can combine existing regions into a single, complex region to calculate area. Regions are two-dimensional enclosed areas you create from objects that form closed loops. Loops can be combinations of lines, polylines, circles, arcs, ellipses, elliptical arcs, and splines. The objects that make up the loops must

Boundary Regions can also be created using Boundary Command. Application of Boundary is same as that of the region. Both are extensively used in 3 Dimension to create 3 Dimensional Extruded Solid Objects.

Wipeout Wipeout objects cover existing objects with a blank area to make room for notes or to mask details. A wipeout object is a polygonal area that masks underlying objects with the current background color. This area is bounded by the wipeout frame, which you can turn on for editing and turn off for plotting. You can create a wipeout object by specifying a polygonal area with a series of points, or you can convert a closed polyline into a wipeout object.

Revision Cloud Revision clouds are polylines that consist of sequential arcs. They are used to call attention to parts of a drawing during the review stage. If you review or redline drawings, you can increase your productivity by using the Revision Cloud feature to highlight your markups. REVCLOUD creates a polyline of sequential arcs to form a cloud-shaped object. You can select a style for a revision cloud: Normal or Calligraphy. If you select Calligraphy, the revision cloud

Defining Drawing Units : UNITS command Before we start to draw, we must decide what one drawing unit represents based on what we plan to draw. We can convert a drawing between systems of measurement by scaling it. Every object we create is measured in drawing units. Before we start to draw, we must decide what one drawing unit will represent based on what we plan to draw. Then we create our drawing at actual size with that convention. For example, a distance of one drawing unit typically represents one millimeter, one centimeter, one inch, or one foot in real-world units.

Convert Drawing Units If we start a drawing in one system of measurement (imperial or metric) and then want to switch to the other system, use SCALE to scale the model geometry by the appropriate conversion factor to obtain correct distances and dimensions. For example, to convert a drawing created in inches to centimeters, you scale the model geometry by a factor of 2.54. To convert from centimeters to inches, the scale factor is 1/2.54 or about 0.3937.

Layers Layers are used to group information in a drawing by function and to enforce linetype, color, and other standards. Layers are the equivalent of the overlays used in paper-based drafting. Layers are the primary organizational tool used in drawing. We use layers to group information by function and to enforce linetype, color, and other standards.

Layers By creating layers, we can associate similar types of objects by assigning them to the same layer. For example, we can put construction lines, text, dimensions, and title blocks on separate layers. You can then control the following: ●

Whether objects on a layer are visible or dimmed in any viewports



Whether and how objects are plotted



What color is assigned to all objects on a layer





What default linetype and lineweight are assigned to all objects on a layer Whether objects on a layer can be modified

Session Plan - 10 Working with surveyor’s units. Drawing a Building Plan. Applying Layers to Building Plan.

Working with Surveyor’s Angles. If we use surveyor's angles when specifying polar coordinates, indicate whether the surveyor's angles are in the north, south, east, or west direction. For example, to enter a coordinate relative to the current coordinate for a property line that is 72 feet, 8 inches long with a bearing of 45 degrees north, 20 minutes, 6 seconds east, enter @72'8"
