AutoCad :: How To Draw A Site Plan

Sep 4, 2012

I've never used AutoCAD before but I'm trying to make a site plan. I attached a picture of the property I'm trying to make a site plan of. Basically, it's a building that 59' by 92' that has a fenced in yard that is roughly a rectangle. I'd like to fit the site plan on regular 8.5"x11" sheet of paper. I know how to draw lines but don't know how to make them the right lengths. It doesn't need to be perfect with angles but I'd like to make it look nice with like a border and titles and such. I've been trying to read up on how to do it but I just get overwhelmed.

Revit :: Imported Site Not Appearing In Elevations?

Oct 21, 2013

Background: infrequent user who is in AutoCAD withdrawal but forcing himself to move to Revit.
 
I've just started a new project.  I've imported a survey done in AutoCAD and converted it to a Topo surface.
 
The surface appears in two of the Elevations (East and North), but not the other two.  I have two empty views. I've turned off Crop View.  When I did this and a Z A, I was able to find the East and North elevations and move the views over to them.  However, I can't find the elevations in the other views.

AutoCad :: Displaying Site Plan On IPad / IPhone

Oct 28, 2013

Regarding the use of the 360 mobile app:

I am a site planner/landscape architect in need of displaying autocad site plans on my ipad / iphone. This is possible through 360, but the limit on file size and xrefs is not allowing me to get all of my info viewable. Also, I am in need of inserting aerial imagery so that I may be able to track my location on site via GPS.

AutoCad :: Import TXT File With DWG Site Plan To Generate Contours?

Feb 21, 2012

a civil engineer sent us a .dwg file for a site survey. However, the .dwg contours are just showing up as a series of overlapping rectangles. He attached two .txt files, one for elevation point locations, the other for tree locations. Both give coordinates... i.e. :452,2718.7202,2509.7896,569.4979,GL etc. I know that the .txt file is giving locations, but I do not know how to generate plines etc. from the given coordinates in the .txt file. I downloaded ascponit.lsp, but i'm not sure if this is meant for this...

I'm using AutoCAD 2008.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create Grading Plan For Solar PV Site Or Golf Course?

Feb 28, 2013

how to use Civil 3D to create a grading plan for a solar PV site or a golf course?

Here is the situation.  We have a large 100 acre site that is not flat.  We want to do minimal grading to "smooth out the surface".  So that maximum slope on the site is 10%.  The site does not have to be graded completely flat.  We are trying to work with the existing contours and terrain as much as possible.

Is there some functiion or some way for Civil 3D to "smooth out a surface"?  We want to work with the existing slopes and contours of the site and just need a grading plan that will smooth out mounds, holes, or high slope areas.

I'm having an issue with JPG attachments.  In this case, we are attaching a reference civil site plan drawing.  The image correctly appears in the sheet, and even in the "preview" window while exporting to DWF.  However, the DWF file does not show the image.  Is this a hidden export setting or a view setting in Design Review?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Overlay With Google Earth Or Google Map

May 8, 2012

I am using Autocad LT 2013.  I wish to use Autocad to draw subdivision lines and need to overlay satellite imagery (Google Earth or Google Maps) in tandem with Garmin GPS waypoints taken in the field. 

In the 'type a command' ribbon, when I type in 'GEOGRAPHICLOCATION'  and select 'Import the current location from Google Earth' (opens Google Earth, where you can retrieve a location to import).

Then a window appears which says 'Navigate to the location in Google Earth that you want to import before continuing (for best results, configure the view in Google Earth to look directly over the location that you want to import).

When I select 'continue' the command ribbon asks that I, 'select a point for the location <0, 0, 0>:

I have looked at the co-ordinates on google earth and attempted to enter but it does not feel right.  Then says 'specify the north direction or (angle):s, then 'Point or option keyword required'.

Any way to have the ability to draw subdivision lines on satellite imagery.  Garmin's Basecamp will allow drawing on top of google earth but I do not want tracks, I will only use the waypoints made by the gps device, but I need to draw measured lines that reflect the co-ordinates of the location.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Change Profile Elevations Of Intersecting Roads

Dec 18, 2013

Is there a way for the program to automatically change profile elevations of intersecting roads.

Say for example i have two intersecting roads ROAD A and ROAD B.

On my ROAD A profile at station 0+300 i have a proposed road elevation of 9.5
On my ROAD B profile at station 0+000 (intersecting point) I have the same proposed road elevation of 9.5.

Now i change my ROAD A profile at station 0+300 to 10.3

Is there anyway to allow the program to automatically change my ROAD B profile elevations to 10.3 

IF NOT--

and I have to use the Annotate > Add Labels > Profile View > .......................... labels,

Is there a way for those labels to link across the profiles such that , On my ROAD A profile at station 0+300 i put the label at the elevation of 9.5

On my ROAD B profile at station 0+000 (intersecting point) I have the same label at the elevation of 9.5

Now i change my ROAD A profile at station 0+300 to elevation of 10.3 then is there a way for it to automatically raise the ROAD B elevation label

So that I would know, without having to manually check through, that there is a discrepancy between those intersecting roads. So the real list of my query is whether I can link my alignments, profiles or annotation labels.

AutoCad :: Printing Proposed In Color?

Dec 8, 2011

I was wondering if there is a way to print proposed lines in color, yet still have everything else print in monochrome.

Currently we print using monochrome, but would like to have our proposed line work stand out even more by selecting them, and having them print out in color.

Is there a way to do this without having to set all the other layers to a grey scale manually.
