 ABSTRACT

In this internship report, I will write and elaborate about the

experiences which I had encountered and those things which I
had learnt during the entire internship period. For example, the
tasks or activities which I had carried out or involved in as well
as those challenges and limitations which I had faced during the
internship. My experience as an intern for 15 days has given
me a lot of exposure to the civil engineering field. It had
provided me the opportunity to get to know about this
software.

1. INTRODUCTION:
Civil Engineering Software is becoming an essential part of
every project work. As Infrastructure development is playing a
very important role in the growth of any country, the amount
of software serving Civil Engineering and Design needs is
increasing tremendously.
1.1.1 List of Civil Engineering Software:
Various software uses in civil engineering:
 AUTOCAD
 REVIT
 SKETCH UP
 STAAD RPO
 ETABS
 3DMAX
 MS EXCEL
 MS PROJECT
 CHAPTER - 2

AUTOCAD
AutoCAD is commercial computer-aided design (CAD) and
drafting software. Developed by Autodesk, and was first
released in December 1982. AutoCAD is used across a wide
range of industries, by Architects, Project manager, Engineers,
Graphic designer and many other professional.

Autodesk has also developed a few vertical programs:

• AutoCAD Architect
• AutoCAD Civil
• AutoCAD Electrical
• AutoCAD Map 3d etc….
 Commands in AutoCAD
There are different commands used for drafting In AutoCAD.

LINE:
With the line command you can draw simple line from one
point to another.

RECTANLE:
The Rectangle command is used to draw a rectangle whose
sides are vertical and horizontal. The position and size of the
rectangle are defined by picking two diagonal corners.

CIRCLE:
There are number of ways you can define circle the default
method is to pick the centre point and then to either pick a
second point on the circumference of the circle or centre the
circle radius at the keyboard.

HATCH:
Hatch is used to add shaded patterns to object and shapes.
 Modify commands in AutoCAD

OFFSETS:
Create a duplicate object with the parallel object. If this object
is a polyline or a circle, the duplicate shape will be transformed
inwards or outwards.

COPY:
Copy’s one or more objects.

MOVE:
Move one or more object.

MIRROR:
Create a mirror image of the object. It is useful for creating
symmetrical objects because you can quickly draw half the
object and then mirror it instead of drawing the entire object.
TRIM:
With the trim option can be shortened or lengthened with the
edged of other objects. Objects can exactly be fitted between
these objects.

FILLET:
You can use the fillet tool to connect two objects with an arc
with a specified radius. The inside corner is called a fillet and an
outside corner is called round.

JOIN:
You can use the option to combine similar objects into one
single object. It is possible to create complete circles from arc.

CHAMFER:
It is almost identical to fillet, but it will make a straight line
instead of an arc. The difference between fillet and chamfer is
Fillet describes rounded corner of a design that help to reduce
stress and prevent rapid deformation at the corner of the parts
and chamfer are sloped or angled edge sof a design or part
EXTEND:
With the Extended option you can shorten or lengthen objects
exactly fitted between objects. Extending an object works in
the same way a trimming.

LAYERS:
Layers are the primary method for organizing the objects in a
drawing by the function on purpose. Layers can reduce the
visual complexity of drawing and improve display performance
by hiding information that you don’t need to see at the
moment.
You can gain this level of control by organizing the objects in
your drawing on layers that are associated with a specific
function or a purpose. It might be helpful to think of layers as
clear plastic sheets.

ROTATE:
You can rotate object with an absolute and relative angle.When
using an absolute angle: Specify the base point and then Specify
the rotation angle.
DIMENSION TOOLBAR:
You can create many types of dimension for a variety of objects
type in many orientation and alignments.
The basic type of dimension is linear, radial, angular, ordinate,
and arc length. Use the DIM command to create dimensions
automatically according to the object type that you want to
dimension.
You can control the appearance of dimension by setting up
dimension style, or by editing individual dimension in special
cases. Dimension styles allow you to specify your convention
quickly and maintain industry or project dimensioning
understand.

LINEAR DIMENSION:
Linear dimension can be horizontal, vertical or aligned.
You can create an aligned, horizontal and vertical dimension
with the DIM command depending on how you move the
cursor when placing the text.

Radial DIMENSION:
A radial dimension measures the radius or diameter of arcs and
circles with an optional centerline or centre mark.
ANGULAR DIMENSION:
Angular dimension measure the angle between two selected
geometry objects or three points.

ORDINATE DIMENSION:
Ordinate dimension measure the perpendicular distance from
an origin point called datum, such as a whole in a part. These
dimensions prevent escalating error by maintain accurate
offsets of the features from the datum.

ARC LENGTH DIMENSION:

Arc length dimension measure the distance along an arc or
polyline arc segment. Typical use of arc length dimension
includes measuring the travel distance around a cam or
indicating a length of a cable.

BASELINE AND CONTINUED DIMENSION:

Continued dimension also called the change dimension are
multiple dimensions placed end-to-end
TEXT COMMAND:

MULTILINE TEXT:
For longer notes and labels with internal formatting use
multiline text.

SINGLE-LINE TEXT:
For short, simple notes ad labels, use single –line text.

ASSINGMENT WORK
Problem 1
Prepare an AutoCAD plan for a Hostel building with basement
(3.5m height) and having 3 floors above ground level of 3.2 m
height. Plan dimension is (35’ * 60’) feet. Hostel contains total
23 rooms with attached toilet and bathroom.

Problem 2
Provide structural system for a Hostel building in AutoCAD of
each floor.

INTRODUCTION OF REVIT (BIM)

Revit is commercial Building Information Modeling (BIM)

software by the company Autodesk. It’s generally used by
Architects, Structural Engineers, Mechanical, Electrical and
Plumbing (MEP) Engineers, Designers, and Contractors.
Autodesk revit allows users to create, edit, and review 3D
models in exceptional detail.

As you design Revit automatically creates accurate:

 FLOORS
 ELEVATION

 SECTION
 3D VIEWS
 AREA CALCULATION
 SCHEDULES AND QUANTITY TAKE-OFF
 KEY CAPABILITIES OF REVIT FOR ARCHITECTURE

Design of documentation:
Place walls doors and window. Generate floor, plans, elevation,
sections, schedules, 2d and 3d views and rendering quickly and
accurately.

ANALYSIS:
Optimize building function at early -stage design run cost
estimates and monitor performance over the lifetime of the
project and the building.

VISUALISATION:
Generate photorealistic rendering create documentation with
cutaways, 3d views and stereo panoramas to extend your
design to virtual reality.

CO ORDINATION AND COLLABORATION:

Share sync and iterate design with engineers and contractors in
revit in a unified project environment.
 Assignment work
Problem 3
Prepare 3D model of Hostel building in REVIT software with
proper texture and library element are required.
EXTRA ASSIGNMENT
 CONCLUSION

In these 15 days of INTERNSHIP I have learn different

commands and with the help of them how to draw a 2d plans in
AUTOCAD.
I have also learned to design a 3D model in REVIT software.
