DRAWING BASICS
OBJECTIVE
To construct 2d drawings in the drafting and annotation workspace using lines, circles, arcs,
polylines, rectangles, polygons, splines, and ellipses.
APPLICATION
AutoCAD
PROCEDURE
1. Open AutoCAD software.
2. Save file in your folder with your course and section, name, and plate number (Course
Section, Surname, First Name, Middle Initial. Plate Number).
3. Turn Logfile on.
4. Construct Figure 1.1 using line tool, given the coordinate of each point.
5. In the same drawing file as Figure 1.1 use the Line tool construct Figure 1.2, with point X at
(200,200).
6. In the same drawing file as the first 2 figures, draw Figure 1.3, with point Z at (-500,-500).
7. Still in the same drawing file as the figures 1.1 to 1.3, construct Figure 1.4, having point Y at
(100,-100).
8. In the same drawing files as the first 4 drawings, construct Figure 1.5 using polyline, having
point W at (-100,100).
