Welcome to a technical session on

AUTOCAD
INTRODUCTION
AUTOCAD IS THE MOST POWERFUL AND
POPULAR 2D DRAFTING AND 3D
MODELLING SOFTWARE .
 DEVELOPER’S PROFILE

 DEVELOPED BY AUTODESK INC.USA., THE

FOURTH LARGEST SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
COMPANY IN THE WORLD

 AUTODESK PROVIDES CAD SOLUTIONS TO

MECHANICAL, CIVIL, ELECTRICAL,
ARCHITECTURE, ENGINEERING ,

 WHY AUTOCAD ?????
 LESS TIME
 ACCURACY
 REPRODUCIBILITY
 GOOD QUALITY
 LINK TO VARIOUS OTHER
APPLICATIONS
 REALISTIC 3D MODELS
 AUTOCAD
AUTOCAD IS DIVIDED INTO THREE
PARTS

 2D Drafting

 Productivity tools
 3D Modeling
 2D Drafting
 BASIC GEOMETRY
(Line,Arc,Circle,Ellipse,Polygon, etc)

 MODIFIERS
(COPY,ARRAY,MIRROR,ROTATAE ETC.)

 HATCHING
 DIMENSIONING
 CONCEPT OF LAYERS
QUICK DIMENSIONING
 PRODUCTIVITY TOOLS
 WORKING WITH BLOCKS
 DATABASE CONNECTIVITY
 EXTERNAL REFERENCE
 HYPERLINKING
 SYMBOL LIBRARY
 PLOTTING DRAWINGS
 LAYOUT MANAGEMENT
 3D MODELLING

 CREATION OF PRIMITIVE SOLIDS

(BOX,CYLINDER,SPHERE,TORUS)
 BASIC TOOLS
(EXTRUDE,REVOLVE,FILLET,CHAMFER)
BOOLEAN OPERATIONS
(UNION,SUBTRACT,INTERSECT,ETC)
RENDERING

(ATTACHING LIGHT EFFECTS AND MATERIALS)

 ADVANTAGES
USING CAD TECHNOLOGY WE CAN
EASILY CREATE 3D SOLID MODELS ON
COMPUTER SCREEN
WE CAN VIEW THE MODEL FROM ANY
VANTAGE POINT
GENERATE ORTHOGRAPHIC AND
PERSPECTIVE VIEWS AUTOMATICALLY
RENDER THE MODEL PHOTO
REALIST ICALLY
DRAFTING MODE
