17.8 Exercises

---

1. Use the following information to create the drawing in Figure 17.8.1d. Save the drawing as MyTee in the C:\Steps\Lesson17 folder.

   
   Figure 17.8.1a

   1.1  

   Layer Information:

   Layer Name	Color	Linetype
   0	7 (white)	Continuous
   Border	5 (blue)	Continuous
   Cl	3 (green)	Center
   Dim	5 (blue)	Continuous
   Hatch	32	Continuous
   Marker	6 (magenta)	Continuous
   Ob	1 (red)	Continuous
   Text	6 (magenta)	Continuous

   1.2  

   Limits: 0,0 to 17,11

   1.3  

   Grid spacing = 1/4"

   1.4  

   Text sizes = 3/8", 1/4", 3/16", 1/8"

   1.5  

   Font: Times New Roman

   1.6  

   Hatching information

   1.6.1	Pattern = ANSI32
   1.6.2	Scale = 1"
   1.6.3	Angle = 0

2. Start a new drawing from scratch.

   2.1  

   Create the following setup:

   2.1.1  

   Use a 1½"=1'-0" scale on an A-size sheet of paper (8½x11)

   2.1.2  

   Grid: 1" (snap as needed)

   2.1.3  

   These layers:

   Layer	Name	Color Linetype
   0	7 (white)	Continuous
   Cl	6 (magenta)	Center2
   Const	1 (red)	Continuous
   Obj1	4 (cyan)	Continuous
   Obj3	1 (red)	Continuous
   Text	2 (yellow)	Continuous

   2.2  

   Use this information for the Grade hatching:

   Pattern: EARTH

   Scale: 8.0000

   Angle: 45

   2.3  

   Use this information for the sand hatching:

   Pattern: AR-SAND

   Scale: 0.5000

   Angle: 0

   2.4  

   Use the Times New Roman font. Large text should plot at ¼"; small text should plot at 1/8".

   2.5  

   Create the Exterior Slab drawing shown in Figure 17.8.2a. Save it as MySlab in the C:\Steps\Lesson17 folder.

   
   Figure 17.8.2a: Exterior Slab

3. Start a new drawing from scratch. Using the same information you used in the Exterior Slab drawing in Exercise 2, create the Concrete Pier Footing drawing in Figure 17.8.3a.

   
   Figure 17.8.3a: Concrete Pier Footing

   3.1	Use this information to hatch the concrete: Pattern: AR-CONC Scale: 0.5000 Angle: 0
   3.2	Save the drawing as MyFooting in the C:\Steps\Lesson17 folder.

4. Open the Cabin-hatch.dwg file in the C:\Steps\Lesson17 folder. Use the following information to complete the drawing. The completed elevations are shown in Figures 17.8.4a & b. (See if you can add a chimney on your own.)

   4.1  

   Create these additional layers:

   Layer Name	Color	Linetype
   Hatch1	85	Continuous
   Hatch2	22	Continuous
   Hatch3	44	Center
   Hatch4	214	Continuous

   4.2  

   Hatching information:

   4.2.1	Doors: Pattern: AR-RROOF Scale = ¼" Angle = 90° Layer = Hatch3
   4.2.2	Roof: Pattern: AR-RSHKE Scale = 1/16" Angle = 0° Layer = Hatch3
   4.2.3	Facade: Pattern: AR-BRELM Scale = 1/8" Angle = 0° Layer = Hatch2
   4.2.4	Curtains: Pattern: STARS Scale = 1" Angle = 90° Layer = Hatch4
   4.2.5	Gables: Pattern: ANSI31 Scale = 1" Angle = 45° Layer = Hatch2
   4.2.6	Doorknobs are on the Hatch1 layer.

5. Using what you've learned, create the drawings in Figures 17.8.5a to 17.8.5h. The grid, where shown, is 2".
