In this project, you will do the following:

• Set up the drawing, including Limits, Units, and Layers.
• Use the LINE, PLINE, and BHATCH commands to create objects.
• Use the ARRAY command to create objects from existing objects.
• Use the FILLET and TRIM commands to modify objects.

Step 1: Start the AutoCAD program.
Step 2: To create a new drawing, invoke the NEW command from the Quick Access
toolbar.
AutoCAD displays the Select Template dialog box. Select acad.dwt as the tem-
plate file and choose Open. AutoCAD creates a new drawing. Set the Units,
Limits, Snap, and Grid to the values shown in the Settings/Value table.
Step 3: Invoke the LAYER command from the Layer panel. AutoCAD displays the
Layer Properties Manager dialog box. Create 10 layers, rename them as
shown in the table, and assign appropriate colors and linetypes.

Step 4: Set Slab as the current layer. Invoke the PLINE command with a width of
0.125 to draw the concrete perimeter and a width of 0.0 to draw the “break”
line, as shown in Figure P9–2. Figure P9–1 shows all the required dimensions
to draw the layout. After you draw the layout, the drawing should look like
Figure P9–2.
Chapter 9 • Hatching and Boundaries 9-3
FIGURE P9–2 Layout of the drawing
Step 5: Set Wall as the current layer. Invoke the PLINE command to draw the bricks.
The bottom brick is 2-3/8 00 3-1/2 00 and is 3/8 00 above the brick ledge.
Step 6: In order to create the arc that represents the mortar joints, invoke the
CIRCLE command with the Three point option. Select the corners of the
concrete and the brick that the desired arc touches, and then drag the cursor
to a point that gives you a radius slightly larger than the joint gap. Then,
using the TRIM command with the concrete and the brick as the objects to
trim to, remove the outer part of the circle, leaving the desired arc. Invoke
the MIRROR command to create an arc on the opposite edge of the brick,
using the Midpoint Osnap on the bottom line of the brick as the basepoint
about which to mirror. The completed drawing should look like Figure P9–3.
FIGURE P9–3 Layout of a brick to draw the wall

Step 7: Invoke the ARRAY command to duplicate the bricks and mortar joints and
create a stack of 10 bricks. Draw a “break” line through the top brick, and
use the TRIM command to trim off any brick extending past the “break”
line, as shown in Figure P9–4.
FIGURE P9–4 Layout of the wall
Step 8: Invoke the LINE command to draw the 1/2 00 gypsum board and the 1/2 00
exterior sheathing comprising the frame wall. The 2 4 sole plate is 1-1/2 00
thick and is shown by crossed lines. The heavy flashing at the bottom can be
drawn with the PLINE command, with 0.125 width; then use the FILLET
command to round the corner, as shown in Figure P9–5.
FIGURE P9–5 Layout of the gypsum board and exterior sheathing
Step 9: Set Hatchboundary as the current layer. Draw copies of the two faces of the
bottom brick and the two bottom arcs representing the mortar joint. Set the
Wall layer to OFF. The layout should look like Figure P9–6.
FIGURE P9–6 Layout of the brick and mortar joint
Step 10: Invoke the ARRAY command to duplicate the faces of the bricks and mortar
joints into a stack of 10 double faces and double arcs. Set the Wall layer to
ON, and using the “break” line through the top brick, invoke the TRIM com-
mand to trim off the brick faces extending past the “break” line. Invoke the
PLINE command and trace over the parts of the “break” line between the
brick faces. Set the Wall layer to OFF. The layout should look like Figure P9–7.
FIGURE P9–7 Layout of the brick wall with mortar joint
Step 11: Set Bricksection as the current layer. Invoke the BHATCH command, and
using the ANSI31 pattern at a scale of 6 and a hatch angle of zero (0), select
a point in the boundary of brick faces and mortar arcs just created. Invoke the
LINE command, and draw the necessary lines as shown in Figure P9–8 to
complete the boundaries for the Sand and Earth hatch patterns.

FIGURE P9–8 Hatch pattern for brick faces and mortar arcs
Step 12: Set Concrete as the current layer. Invoke the BHATCH command, and using
the AR-CONC pattern at a scale of 1/2 and a hatch angle of zero (0), select
a point in the boundary representing the concrete slab.
Step 13: Set Sand as the current layer. Invoke the BHATCH command, and using the
AR-SAND pattern at a scale of 1/2 and a hatch angle of zero (0), select a point
in the boundary representing the sand beneath the concrete slab.
Step 14: Set Earth as the current layer. Invoke the BHATCH command, and using the
EARTH pattern at a scale of 9 and a hatch angle of 45, select a point in the
boundary representing the earth beneath the sand and concrete slab.
Step 15: Set Insulation as the current layer. Invoke the BHATCH command, and using
the FLEX pattern at a scale of 3 and a hatch angle of 45, select a point in the
boundary representing the frame wall between the exterior and interior
sheathings. Set the Hatchboundary layer to OFF. The layout should look like
Figure P9–9.
FIGURE P9–9 Layout of the exterior wall section
Step 16: Set Text as the current layer. Invoke the LEADER command, and draw the
text object with the leader lines as shown in Figure P9–10.
FIGURE P9–10 Layout of the exterior wall section with leader lines
Step 17: Set Dimension as the current layer. Draw all the required dimensioning to
complete the exterior wall section as shown in Figure P9–11.

90 degrees from each other.

a separate layer. That layer can be set to OFF for viewing and plotting the drawing.

HINT Using the dimensions in Figure Ex9–6b, draw the front elevation of the house. The main
concern about being able to draw hatch patterns within the proper boundaries is to make
sure the boundaries are closed. Overlapping at the intersections of the segments that
make up the boundary is acceptable. But AutoCAD will not complete the hatch pattern if
there is a gap between any of the boundary segments.
