Introduction to AutoCAD

The term CAD (Computer Aided Design) applies to a wide range of programs that allow th user to created drawings, plans, and designs electronically. AutoCAD is one such program and it main claim to fame is that it is relatively easy to use, it is very comprehensive in its ability to create 2D and some 3D drawings, and it is very popular. Seventy percent of the CAD users in the world use AutoCAD. I

Starting AutoCAD

You can start AutoCAD by either double clicking on the program Icon on the desktop or by clicking on the program name in the Start menu. The program will start and after a minute or so should display a screen similar to the one shown below. The dialog box in the middle will aid you in getting started at either creating a new drawing or continuing your work on a drawing that is not finished.

What is AutoCAD?

AutoCAD is a software package used for draughting and designing almost anything you wish. The software has evolved massively over the years and now offers various ‘themed’ versions catering for the specific requirements of different engineering disciplines, such as mechanical engineering, civil engineering and architecture.

Basically AutoCAD provides a 3D space (model space) in which you construct or draw your design. It provides drawing layout tools which enable you to prepare and plot conventional 2D drawings of your model. More recent versions also include advanced rendering tools, enabling you to create photo-realistic images of your design.
1.2 The interface. Standard Windows type command buttons, pull down menus etc. are provided to use AutoCAD. One strong feature of AutoCAD is the continued support of its command line. Any function or command you can give AutoCAD can be given by typing in the appropriate command on the screen. AutoCAD supports legacy commands, from previous versions, so learning to use AutoCAD through the command line means you should be able to use any subsequent or previous releases of the software without getting lost in the menu systems. This manual will encourage you to use the command line but may also involve use of tool bars and pull down menus.

1.3 Saving your AutoCAD work.

You are responsible for the safe keeping of your work with AutoCAD. Work saved on yournetwork U:\ drive is safe, but the drive is limited in storage capacity. You may wish to use other removable media such as a USB flash stick (pen drive). Get into the habit of creating a folder for each project.
When you save work, AutoCAD will create a *.dwg file and a *.bak file of your work. The *.bak file is a backup copy of the *.dwg file.

1.4 About the 2D tutorial.

As an introduction to the basics of using AutoCAD in 2D you are presented with this practical tutorial.
You will be introduced to a method of creating a projection drawing of a building in 2D and then presenting that drawing on an A3 formatted sheet. Once you are comfortable with these basic tools you are encouraged to experiment yourself and then to move on to the 3D tutorial.
