Drawing Problems - Chapter 1 Drawing Problems - Chapter 26 810 AutoCAD and Its Applications—Basics Copyright Goodheart-Willcox Co., Inc. Drawing Problems Start AutoCAD if it is not already started. Start a new drawing for each problem using an appropriate template of your choice. The template should include layers and text, dimension, multileader, and table styles, when necessary, for drawing the given objects. Add layers and text, dimension, multileader, and table styles as needed. Draw all objects using appropriate layers. Use appropriate text, dimension, multileader, and table styles, justification, and format. Follow the specific instructions for each problem. Use only drawing and editing commands and techniques you have already learned. Use your own judgment and approximate dimensions when necessary. Apply dimensions accurately using ASME or appropriate industry standards. Note: Some of the problems in this chapter are built on problems from previous chapters. If you have not yet completed those problems, complete them now. ▼ Basic 1. Architectural Save P24-1 as P26-1. If you have not yet completed Problem 24-1, do so now. In the P26-1 file, erase all copies of the steel column symbols except for the one in the lower-left corner. Insert an XY parameter into the steel column block and associate an array action with the parameter. Use the proper values for the array action to array the block dynamically to match the drawing. Use the dynamic block to create the rest of the steel columns in the drawing. 2. Mechanical Create a block named WIRE ROLL as shown. Do not include the dimensions. Insert a linear parameter on the entire length of the roll. Use a value set with the following values: 36″, 42″, 48″, and 54″. Assign a stretch action to the parameter and associate the action with either parameter grip. Create a crossing window that will allow the length of the roll to stretch. Select all of the objects on one end and the length lines as the objects to stretch. Insert the WIRE ROLL block four times into a drawing and stretch each block to use a different value set length. Save the drawing as P26-2.
