How to Create a 3D Wall in Autocad 2006

Okayyy. Now i will show you how to create wall in Autocad 2006. Just follow the steps below :

1. First, let`s create a simple floor plan with dimension like the picture below. I assume you already know how to draw line, arc, rectangle and other simple 2D element in autocad.


2. Change your view to SE VIEWPORT. You can find the icon on VIEW toolbar.


3. Now create a REGION between 2 line. If you don`t know how to create it yet, read it here. Do it to all wall element / layer.


4. Now we`re moving to create a wall. On SOLID toolbar click on EXTRUDE icon or type EXTRUDE on command line. Choose the wall region that you already created and insert value, example 300 cm. Pay attention to the direction of the axis. You can playing with UCS. Just make sure axis X is pointing upwards. See the picture below, and do it for entire wall element.


5. Repeat #4 step, only this time is for door frame element. In the pic below the height of door frame is 210 cm. You can fill the emptiness above the door, which is still wall element, with draw a rectangle that parallel to the existing wall area.


6. The pic below is the result after you EXTRUDE all element you need ( wall & door frame ).


If you have any question, feel free to ask me :)

Cheers,
Jaenne
