This presentation provides an overview of AutoCAD software. It discusses that AutoCAD is 2D and 3D computer-aided design software developed by Autodesk. The latest version is AutoCAD 2023. The presentation reviews the AutoCAD interface and screen, coordinate systems, common 2D commands like fillet and chamfer, and benefits such as creating designs quickly and with more accuracy compared to hand drafting. Career opportunities involving the use of AutoCAD are also mentioned.

3. ➢ The Word AutoCAD is made up of two words “Auto(logo of
company)”and CAD “(computer aided design/drafting)”.
➢ AutoCAD is 2D and 3D modeling software.
➢ It is developed by Autodesk company.
➢ Autodesk is an U.S.A based company.
➢ 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.
INTRODUCTION

4. 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.
 This time, we have the latest version of AutoCAD is 2023.

7. HOW AutoCAD WORKS
❖ There is a co-ordinate system 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.

8. CO-Ordinate System
 AutoCAD provides two types of coordinate systems:
 Work Coordinate System (WCS) is fixed and cannot be changed. In this
system (when viewing the origin from 0,0,1), the X axis starts at the point
0,0,0, and values increase as the point moves to the operator’s right; the Y axis
starts at 0,0,0, and values increase as the point moves to the top of the screen;
and finally, the Z axis starts at the 0,0,0 point, and values get larger as it
comes toward the user.
User Coordinate System (UCS) allows you to change the location and
orientation of the X, Y, and Z axes. The UCS command lets you redefine the
origin of your drawing and establish the positive X and the positive Y axes.

9. Some 2D Commands
Chamfer Fillet
Copy Mirror

10. 2D Commands
Scale Array
Extend Join

11. 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
 Scale
 points
