INTRODUCTION
The Word AutoCAD is made up of two words “Auto(logo of
company)” and
CAD “(computer aided design)”.
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.
Version of
AutoCAD
AutoCAD software was firstly launched by Autodesk company in Dec.
1982.
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 2014, which is
launched on
27th march 2013.
Latest version is easy to use and over come the difficulties of old
version.

HOW AutoCAD WORKS
There is a co-ordinate system used in AutoCAD.
Every drawing shows its co-ordinate.
In above next slide the line shows its co-ordinate that is (9.6) and (-10,-4).
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.
CO-Ordinate
System
Every thing that we draw in AutoCAD is exact.
All object draw on screen is based on simple X-Y co-ordinate
system.
In AutoCAD it is known as world co-ordinate system (WCS).
We are drawing a line, so we have two points A(-10,-4) and B(9,6).
As shown in
figure.
The UCS and WCS
The AutoCAD world is 3 dimensional. However, if we want to draw a 2d
object,
such as a plan or a section, we will use only 2 dimensions (x and y).
WCS (world coordinate system) is the imaginary plane that is parallel to
the
ground. It is the default coordinate system.
Modifications made to the World Coordinate System(WCS) result in a User
Coordinate System(UCS). It is the plane that you work on. It enables the
user
to draw 3 dimensional objects.
To create a new UCS, type ucs on the command window, then say New
and specify
3 points on your new UCS plane.

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.
