How to import AutoCAD file to 3DS Max

 Ok, so long after I have started to explain about 3DS Max here. But first of all I would like to ask you whether you have practiced small small things in 3DS Max or not. Whether you know the commands and tools about 3DS Max. If you have not learnt those things then you can click here. You will get to know each and everything starting from small things to bigger ones. So that you can grow up your career and try to make anything you know.

So ok, let's come to the topic now. So you have the 3DS Max software in your PC. You double click and open it. After opening the software you go to File menu or the logo you see as 3 in your system. Just click on there and you will see a option called Import. Click on on that and the required dialog box appears on the screen. 

 




Oh ho🙆! I forgot to to tell you that first make a file in AutoCAD. Ok, whatever be you first make a dwg. file in AutoCAD and after that you bring it to 3DS Max. But anyway you know it😛. After making the drawing file you save it wherever you want and give a name, so that you does not get difficult to open it while searching the file. After that click on the file and then click on Open button.

After that a dialog box appears as Proxy Objects Detected. You ignore it and check on the box "Do not show this message again" and then on Yes button. But this happens when you start as a Fresher or as a new user. Later on it does not appear again. So this discussion is only for fresher students whether Architects or Civil Engineers😉😊😊. 


After that again another dialog box appears "AutoCAD DWG/DXF Import Options" with three tabs "Geometry", "Layers", "Spline Rendering". You check each of the tabs whether the given options are checked or not or whether the scale, measurements, layers are correct or not. After checking all of these you click on OK button. 




You can see the Drawing file appears in your 3DS Max. In all the views you can see it, whether it's left or right or front or top or perspective. And if you want to see the drawing in large icon or box you can press Alt+W from your keyboard. Select any of the view you want to see and press it on your keyboard Alt+W.

If you have not seen it then click here . But here I am going to discuss how you will edit Grids/Columns in Etabs. As I had said by clicking on "Modify/Show Grid Systems" option a new dialog box appears, their you can edit anything. But you can also do it by different way. On the left side in grid dimensions (plan) you can see that two options are available. One is "Uniform Grid Spacing" and the other is "Custom Grid Spacing". Click on the "Custom Grid Spacing" and you see that Edit Grid Data option is available. Just click on that, and you can edit it as you want by giving the required dimensions in X-axis and Y-axis only. Ok whatever be lets come to the topic.

How to make Staircase in Etabs

 In the last blog I had described about making beams, columns, slabs/roofs in Etabs. But I forgot to tell you how to make staircase. Apology for that. But today in this blog I am going to discuss how to make staircase in Etabs. So before making Staircase first of all delete one side of the slab by single click. But remember one thing in the story side you should have to click "All Stories" so that automatically all slabs will get deleted and required gap and positioning will be appeared.  First click on All Stories After that select one portion of slab   After that go to Edit menu and click on Delete   Then one part of the slab of each story becomes hollow So doing the following steps you can now make the staircase. As for staircase we need hollow section at the top of it, so that it's free to move. In practical field also you can't provide staircase if the roof is covered with slab. Now the main procedure begins for Etabs.  Go to define tab menu and click on Se...

WHAT IS PEDESTAL IN FOOTING ?

 During foundation you should always be careful that there is no water present in the excavation pit and the depth should be accurate. So for that you need manwork and labourers to maintain it's accuracy. So before going further for any work just be careful that the depth of foundation is accurate and no error should be made. Because the structure of a building is fully depend upon foundation. And this is general sense that the all the building loads are carried to the foundation i.e., footing.  Before doing any foundation work first of all brick soiling is to be done or sand filling. The building where high rise structures are made, sand filling is done; but the house with ground floor, brick soiling is sufficient. But from where you will get the bricks. Obviously you will have to order or bring it from bricks factory where bricks are made. And after bringing the bricks where you will placed them?  (Actually all these practical knowledge are not taught in the college so ...
