Sofa and Rug

Description

The purpose of this assignment is to use AutoCAD to complete an architecturally-related drawing. You will use architectural units (feet and inches), to construct these objects that represent furniture in plan view.

Objectives/Outcomes and Assessment Criteria

• Demonstrate an understanding of AutoCAD through the generation of an architecturally-related drawing assignment.

• Print a PDF file of the drawing.

• Demonstrate craftsmanship as manifest through precision of the drawing.

• Document completed assignments in a digital format and archive those digital artifacts in MIro and Google Drive.

General Instructions to begin the drawing

Make sure you have applied these customization settings before starting this drawing.

1. Create a new drawing. Select the acad.dwt template (depending on your settings, you may not see the file extension). Then click Open.

2. Save the file as FirstInitialLastName 02P1 Sofa and Rug (depending on your settings, you may not see the file extension).
For example, the student Maya Lin would name her file MLin 02P2 Sofa and Rug.dwg. Make sure to use your first initial and last name.

3. Format the units as shown in the image. Click OK.

4. Set the Object Snaps (OSNAPS) to Endpoint, Midpoint, and Intersection.

5. Watch the step-by-step tutorial to successfully complete your drawing.

6. You now have a completed DWG file and learned how to print a PDF file. Both files should have the same filename with different file extensions. Save and close your AutoCAD drawing file. Watch the video below to learn how to use the Array command to complete the rugs.

7. Upload the DWG and PDF files to your Google Drive for evaluation.

8. Upload the PDF file to the Miro board for evaluation.

9. If you have any questions, email your instructor.
