WEBVTT

00:00:00.410 --> 00:00:03.965
>> Hello. Welcome
to Module 12.

00:00:03.965 --> 00:00:07.450
In this module, we
are going to follow

00:00:07.450 --> 00:00:11.815
the book AutoCAD
2015, Bible,

00:00:11.815 --> 00:00:17.250
and Chapter 24,

00:00:18.450 --> 00:00:22.845
creating solids
and editing in 3D.

00:00:22.845 --> 00:00:26.210
In this chapter, we are

00:00:26.210 --> 00:00:30.570
working on creating
base geometrical shape,

00:00:30.570 --> 00:00:33.245
drawing extrude,
swept, revolved,

00:00:33.245 --> 00:00:35.530
lofted and polyline solid,

00:00:35.530 --> 00:00:38.250
manipulating
solid directory,

00:00:38.250 --> 00:00:41.010
creating a mesh subject.

00:00:44.370 --> 00:00:48.335
For drawing, basic,
smooth, solid,

00:00:48.335 --> 00:00:50.370
AutoCAD make it
easy to create

00:00:50.370 --> 00:00:53.660
most basic 3D
geometric shapes.

00:00:53.660 --> 00:00:56.830
These shapes are easy
to draw because you can

00:00:56.830 --> 00:00:59.790
dynamically see the
result as you draw.

00:00:59.790 --> 00:01:02.795
For example, drawing
box in Figure

00:01:02.795 --> 00:01:07.610
24.2 shows a solid box

00:01:07.610 --> 00:01:12.110
with a hidden visual
style applied.

00:01:12.110 --> 00:01:15.550
To draw a box,
follow these steps.

00:01:15.550 --> 00:01:18.605
Choose home tab,
modify panel,

00:01:18.605 --> 00:01:22.130
3D solid, drop
down menu box.

00:01:22.130 --> 00:01:24.520
I'm going to
go to AutoCAD.

00:01:24.520 --> 00:01:27.975
We are in the 3D
modeling space.

00:01:27.975 --> 00:01:33.830
We are under
the solid box.

00:01:33.830 --> 00:01:36.640
And the best way of

00:01:36.640 --> 00:01:38.980
seeing the result
is to change

00:01:38.980 --> 00:01:40.580
the view to

00:01:40.580 --> 00:01:46.500
either Southwest
or Southeast view.

00:01:47.360 --> 00:01:53.700
Box.

00:01:53.700 --> 00:01:55.640
At the specified
first corner

00:01:55.640 --> 00:01:57.080
or center prompt,

00:01:57.080 --> 00:02:01.260
specify any corner of
the box or right click

00:02:01.260 --> 00:02:03.160
and choose a center to

00:02:03.160 --> 00:02:06.635
specify the 3D
center of the box.

00:02:06.635 --> 00:02:09.540
Not the center
of the base.

00:02:10.550 --> 00:02:14.010
If you specify the
corner, the default,

00:02:14.010 --> 00:02:16.710
you then see the
specified other corner

00:02:16.710 --> 00:02:20.750
or cube length prompt.

00:02:20.750 --> 00:02:24.870
The default is to pick
the opposite corner

00:02:24.870 --> 00:02:29.165
in the X and Y plane.

00:02:29.165 --> 00:02:32.610
This defines the
base of the box.

00:02:32.610 --> 00:02:34.510
You can define
the base just

00:02:34.510 --> 00:02:37.770
like you define
any rectangle by

00:02:37.770 --> 00:02:41.930
dragging and picking
the opposite corner or

00:02:41.930 --> 00:02:44.610
by entering a coordinate

00:02:44.610 --> 00:02:47.630
at the specifying height,

00:02:48.560 --> 00:02:54.590
or pick two points to
specify the height.

00:02:54.590 --> 00:02:57.390
This complete the box.

00:02:59.480 --> 00:03:03.250
If you specify the center

00:03:03.250 --> 00:03:04.965
at the first prompt,

00:03:04.965 --> 00:03:07.930
you see the
specifying center

00:03:09.650 --> 00:03:12.930
of the box appears.

00:03:12.930 --> 00:03:15.585
If you pick the
corner of the box,

00:03:15.585 --> 00:03:17.450
AutoCAD then ask you

00:03:17.450 --> 00:03:20.130
for the height to
complete the box.

00:03:20.130 --> 00:03:21.945
If you specify the length,

00:03:21.945 --> 00:03:25.890
AutoCAD then ask for
the width and height.

00:03:25.890 --> 00:03:27.850
If you use the
cube option,

00:03:27.850 --> 00:03:30.035
other AutoCAD asks for

00:03:30.035 --> 00:03:33.510
a length and
complete the box.

00:03:36.110 --> 00:03:39.990
You can specify a
negative length,

00:03:39.990 --> 00:03:41.890
width or height to

00:03:41.890 --> 00:03:44.450
build the box in the
negative direction.

00:03:44.450 --> 00:03:47.470
If you specify the
center of the cube,

00:03:47.470 --> 00:03:51.370
don't forget that the
centre's Z coordinate

00:03:51.370 --> 00:03:55.025
is different from the
corners' Z coordinate.

00:03:55.025 --> 00:03:56.950
AutoCAD always
create the box

00:03:56.950 --> 00:04:00.470
parallel to the XY plate.

00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:04.590
Drawing a wedge.

00:04:04.590 --> 00:04:07.975
A wedge is a box sliced
diagonally in half.

00:04:07.975 --> 00:04:10.190
The prompts are
virtually the

00:04:10.190 --> 00:04:12.870
same as for the
box command.

00:04:12.870 --> 00:04:17.720
Figure 24.3,
which is here,

00:04:17.720 --> 00:04:24.560
24.3, shows two
solid wedge.

00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:27.995
For creating a wedge,

00:04:27.995 --> 00:04:31.790
follow the steps
from the book,

00:04:31.790 --> 00:04:34.145
going back to AutoCAD.

00:04:34.145 --> 00:04:36.410
Choose a home tab,

00:04:36.410 --> 00:04:41.510
modeling panel, 3d
solid drop-down menu.

00:04:41.510 --> 00:04:47.950
Wedge.

00:04:48.050 --> 00:04:54.450
At all specified
first corner,

00:04:54.450 --> 00:04:58.190
specify any corner
of the wedge or use

00:04:58.190 --> 00:04:59.510
the center option to

00:04:59.510 --> 00:05:02.760
specify 3D center
of the wedge.

00:05:03.020 --> 00:05:07.760
If you specify the
corner by default,

00:05:07.760 --> 00:05:10.990
you then see the
specified other corner

00:05:10.990 --> 00:05:13.800
or cube length prompt.

00:05:13.800 --> 00:05:15.340
The default is to pick

00:05:15.340 --> 00:05:17.920
the opposite corner
in the XY plane.

00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:21.060
You can also define it
by using a coordinate.

00:05:21.060 --> 00:05:24.020
The command then
asks you for

00:05:24.020 --> 00:05:28.615
the height in
the Z direction.

00:05:28.615 --> 00:05:31.760
This complete the wedge.

00:05:34.490 --> 00:05:37.155
If you use the
cube option,

00:05:37.155 --> 00:05:43.660
AutoCAD ask for one length

00:05:43.660 --> 00:05:45.640
and complete the wedge.

00:05:45.640 --> 00:05:48.160
For positive
length, the wedge

00:05:48.160 --> 00:05:52.410
slopes downward in the
positive Z direction.

00:05:52.410 --> 00:05:57.480
However, if you have
a dynamic input on,

00:05:57.480 --> 00:05:59.080
the slope will follow

00:05:59.080 --> 00:06:01.465
the direction
of the cursor.

00:06:01.465 --> 00:06:04.935
If you use the
length option,

00:06:04.935 --> 00:06:08.150
AutoCAD asks you for
a width and height.

00:06:08.150 --> 00:06:10.830
If you specify the center,

00:06:10.830 --> 00:06:13.950
you see the specified
center prompt.

00:06:13.950 --> 00:06:15.870
Specify the center point,

00:06:15.870 --> 00:06:18.310
the specified corner or

00:06:18.310 --> 00:06:20.950
cube length
prompt displays.

00:06:20.950 --> 00:06:23.130
If you pick the
corner of the wedge,

00:06:23.130 --> 00:06:26.795
the command asks
for the height.

00:06:26.795 --> 00:06:28.650
If you specify a length,

00:06:28.650 --> 00:06:31.310
AutoCAD then ask for
the width and height.

00:06:31.310 --> 00:06:33.315
If you use the
cube option,

00:06:33.315 --> 00:06:36.550
AutoCAD ask for the
length and complete

00:06:36.550 --> 00:06:40.510
the wedge. Drawing cone.

00:06:40.510 --> 00:06:43.530
You can draw cones with

00:06:43.530 --> 00:06:47.250
a circular or
elliptical bases.

00:06:47.250 --> 00:06:49.950
By specifying
negative height,

00:06:49.950 --> 00:06:53.290
you can create an
individual cone like

00:06:53.290 --> 00:06:55.450
an ice cream cone by

00:06:55.450 --> 00:06:58.910
specifying the
axis endpoint,

00:06:58.910 --> 00:07:02.070
the APX, you can draw

00:07:02.070 --> 00:07:06.525
cones on the angle from
the X and Y plane.

00:07:06.525 --> 00:07:09.670
You can also specify a
top radius to create

00:07:09.670 --> 00:07:14.555
a truncated cone,

00:07:14.555 --> 00:07:18.660
sometimes called
a frustum cone.

00:07:18.660 --> 00:07:27.580
Figure 24.4 shows
some cones.

00:07:28.340 --> 00:07:33.225
So here is the steps
for drawing cone,

00:07:33.225 --> 00:07:35.730
going back to AutoCAD.

00:07:35.730 --> 00:07:38.550
Choose Home tab
modeling panel,

00:07:38.550 --> 00:07:41.325
3D, solid dropdown menu,

00:07:41.325 --> 00:07:43.590
home tab modeling,

00:07:43.590 --> 00:07:48.065
solid dropdown
menu, find cone.

00:07:48.065 --> 00:07:53.440
At the specified center
point or base of 3D,

00:07:53.440 --> 00:07:57.000
2D elliptical,

00:07:57.000 --> 00:08:00.760
specify the center
of the base.

00:08:00.760 --> 00:08:03.300
Just click on the screen.

00:08:05.070 --> 00:08:08.570
If you want a circle
con, otherwise,

00:08:08.570 --> 00:08:10.305
use the two-point
or three-point

00:08:10.305 --> 00:08:12.630
or tangent-tangent
radius option

00:08:12.630 --> 00:08:14.570
to define a circle basis.

00:08:14.570 --> 00:08:15.850
Use the optical option,

00:08:15.850 --> 00:08:17.770
define an elliptical base.

00:08:17.770 --> 00:08:20.830
If you specify a
center point at

00:08:20.830 --> 00:08:29.425
a specify base,
radius or diameter.

00:08:29.425 --> 00:08:32.870
If you specify center,

00:08:33.520 --> 00:08:36.080
which we specify center,

00:08:36.080 --> 00:08:37.960
specify a radius or use

00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:40.840
a diameter option,
specify the diameter.

00:08:40.840 --> 00:08:42.780
If you choose the
elliptical option,

00:08:42.780 --> 00:08:46.180
use a prompt to define
the elliptical base.

00:08:46.180 --> 00:08:47.440
Then prompts are like

00:08:47.440 --> 00:08:51.040
the prompts for the
ellipse command.

00:08:51.040 --> 00:08:52.805
So here we are at

00:08:52.805 --> 00:08:57.795
specify base radius
or diameter,

00:08:57.795 --> 00:09:00.075
just click anywhere
on the screen,

00:09:00.075 --> 00:09:03.820
and then you see
specify a height.

00:09:04.520 --> 00:09:08.115
Specify the height
by dragging

00:09:08.115 --> 00:09:11.800
or entering a value.

00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:15.190
Use the two-point
option to

00:09:15.190 --> 00:09:19.050
specify the height by
picking two points.

00:09:19.050 --> 00:09:21.870
At the access
endpoint option

00:09:21.870 --> 00:09:24.130
is another way to
specify the height

00:09:24.130 --> 00:09:29.940
and enables you to create
the angle of cone.

00:09:29.940 --> 00:09:32.690
By default, the
access endpoint is

00:09:32.690 --> 00:09:34.550
a relative
coordinate based

00:09:34.550 --> 00:09:36.130
on the center of the base.

00:09:36.130 --> 00:09:38.470
The top radius option

00:09:38.470 --> 00:09:42.810
create a truncated cone.

00:09:43.940 --> 00:09:48.570
I'm going to give a
height, click here,

00:09:48.570 --> 00:09:53.320
I'm changing the visual
style to conceptual.
