HOW TO INSERT OBJECTS TO A NEW CONSTRUCT DRAWING








In this tutorial, I’m going to show you how to insert objects to a new construct drawing in AutoCAD Architecture.

HOW TO INSERT OBJECTS TO A NEW CONSTRUCT DRAWING


In the following, you will edit a new independent construct drawing for the created chimney.

1.Press Ctrl+3 to hide the Tool Palettes, and press Ctrl+5 to display the Project Navigator palette.

2.Turn to the Constructs tab.

3.With the left mouse button select the chimney body and then press the left mouse button above it, and keep it pressed.

4.Keep the left mouse button and drag the chimney body to the Project Navigator palette, to the Constructs folder name, and let the left mouse button go.


                 


5.Dragging into the folder effects that the Add Construct panel displays. Override the Name to Chimney on it, and in the Assignments field turn on the Ground Level, the Ground Floor and the First Floor levels check boxes. Turn on also the Open in drawing editor check box. With this operation after closing the panel, the newly created drawing will open at once.

6.Exit the panel by pressing OK.







It is seen that the new Construct drawing was created like you would have opened a new drawing by using the template drawing, and you would have dragged the chimney in it with the original coordinates with Copy – Paste (Ctrl+C – Ctrl+V) command pair.

7.In the new opening drawing, only the chimney can be seen.




Save the drawing with the Save command, and close the Chimney drawing.

I hope you enjoyed this part of the AutoCAD Architecture video tutorials series (YouTube video tutorial coming soon – make sure you subscribe to my YouTube channel and email list so you’ll get notified when I publish this video). In the next article, I’ll show you how to drag the chimney as Xref to the Entry Level Drawing.

The advantages and disadvantages of the animation technology in education and training

Introduction People are always looking for new ways to educate their children. If they are having fun, they learn better. Computer animation can be used to make very exciting and fun animations into which education and training can easily be incorporated. It is much more interesting to learn math for example when the letters are nice and colorful and flying around your TV screen instead of solving problems on plain black and white paper. Other subjects such as science, English, foreign language, music, and art can also be thought of using computer animation. Instructors can also use computer animation to demonstrate things visually exactly how they want to since they have control of every aspect of the animation. It can be used to show how things come together and work together. In science, for example, the computer animation might be used to show how our solar system works, and in math, a computer animation might show a student how one can algebraically manipulate the specifi

         DIFFERENCES BETWEEN AUTODESK REVIT AND 3DS MAX Hi, all, being into the counseling profession, I have come across a question that majority of engineers and beginners who wanna make a career in CAD (Computer Aided Design) put up. That is what’s the difference between Autodesk Revit and 3Ds Max. And which one is better for us. What career options are available after doing Revit or 3Ds Max software? So here are the answers. I’m giving you a comparative advantage in Revit and 3Ds Max. Hope the difference will clear much of your doubts. Revit3Ds MaxSuitability Autodesk Revit is best for architecture designing 3Ds Max is highly recommended for rendering. Type Revit Architecture is a Building Information Modeler (BIM). Whereas 3Ds Max is a 3D Modeling tool. Features Revit Architecture interface is designed to simplify your workflow. Revit can generate excellent results for concept modeling, construction documentation, Bills of quantities. Revit
