DrawingTask#8

Intheeighthandfinaldrawingtask,standardAutoCADcommandswereusedtomodeltwovariationsofa

pulleyassembly,includingallofthedimensionsandthecalculatedlengthofeachpulleybelt.First,eachpulley

wheelsizewasmodeledasaseparateblock.Then,theappropriateblockswereinsertedand

positioned.

Finally,thepulleybeltwascreatedandthentextaddedalongwithafieldthatreportedthelengthofthebelt.

• InAutoCAD2008,thevariouspulleywheelsmustbeinsertedatormovedintotheprecisepositionas

thedrawingiscreated,andthendimensionsadded.Then,tocreatethesecondvariation,thefirst

pulleyarrangement

canbecopied,thenecessaryblocksreplaced,andtheneachofthepulleywheels

movedtoitsnewposition.

• InAutoCAD2011,thevariouspulleywheelscanbeinsertedattheirapproximatepositionsandthen

dimensionalconstraintscreatedbetweeneachwheel.Byspecifyingthecorrectdimensionwhen

theseconstraints

arecreated,thewheelsautomaticallymoveintotheircorrectposition.Bycreating

thesedimensionalconstraintsasannotationalconstraints,thereisnoneedtoadddimensions;the
