AutoCAD Tutorial - How to draw Curved, Rounded, Arc, Circular Site Title Boundary

In this tutorial, I will explain how to create a Curved, Rounded, Arc, Circular site boundary / title boundary using any version of AutoCAD. The drawing is based on working with land surveyors data and using it to create the title boundary.
There are 3 data elements to creating arcs or curves for a site boundary.
You will see the following letters:
A = Arc Length
R = Arc Radius
C or CH = Chord - It is a straight line used to help with positioning the curve

So helpful, this takes me way back to the first-year CAD tutes no wonder I needed a refresher!

[@javiz9115]

Thanks for freshening my mind. Good job

[@123rockstar2010]

To draw the arc, I used Arc (Start,End,Radius) and it will always give me the arc length of 4786.1911. I guess 4.79 is rounded from 4.786 units. I changed the UNITS settings of Angle to Deg/Min/Sec, Precision 0d00'00.0', Direction: North, and Clockwise. Type L, click anywhere and paste below: @4930

Good info been party chiefing and now decided to learn autocad.

Thank you for this video! One of my homework assignments required us to use surveyors units and unfortunately my professor didn't show us how to create a drawing using these units. This video was very helpful!

[@AwesomeAndrew]

Thank you for the comment Ashley, much appreciated to hear such great feedback. Yes, I know many educational institutions aren't great with giving you the information you need,and sometimes teachers don't even know how to do things themselves, I have seen that myself. Anyway, glad it helped you.

you Sir, are a life saver! thank you very much

[@airdice1188]

thank you for your tutorial, it helped me a lot

thanks a ton buddy this video helped me a lot

[@fredlshea]

Great job. Very useful.

[@AwesomeAndrew]

Thanks Fred for your comment. Glad you found it useful

[@TRUSICmusic]

Thanks man!

[@DonBathex]

This is really nice. I made some tutorials on autocad, recorded while I was lecturing some students of mine. I also had the videos uploaded on my channel.

[@joshelli5163]

Thanks a lot

[@nandi2685]

Great ty

[@michaelmolter6180]

Try the ALIGN command to move and rotate the arc into position all at once.

[@skamash1]

how you do that in civil 3d?

[@Pens724]

You keep using the chord to plot, and then rotate the arc to match it. What do you use if you only have an arc and a distance?

[@Pens724]

@Sam the Shaman It makes sense in that what you are explaining to do, is merely a work around to do something that this program should be able to do out of the box. Thanks for the reply though.

[@adriann216]

You changed your name!

[@imr0nify]

Sir you did not reply my question .. plz check the link and make the lesson on that

[@AwesomeAndrew]

Hi Imran, this is the video link for the circular floor plan tutorial you requested kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4bZlKGQoJmEd5I

[@DrLyle]

how do you do this if you're not given an angle?

[@DrLyle]

only given Arc Length, Radius and chord

[@imr0nify]

hi Sir ... Could you provide a tutorial About creating circular Map like conference hall i provide you a link where you can see exact type of map.. plz make tutorial about that .. thx

[@AwesomeAndrew]

Hi Imran. I can male a tutorial for you, can you please send a link to what it is you need though so I am clear on what you need? Thank you.

[@imr0nify]

Awesome Andrew sir plz give me your Email ID so i will send u that map Then plz give me tutorial of that map how we will design that in AutoCad

[@imr0nify]

i have shared the links plz open them and you will see lot of map which are in Diameter mean circular form

[@imr0nify]

U did not have reply me

[@AwesomeAndrew]

Imran Ameer hi Imran. I didn't see any of your comments until today. I haven't seen any link either. Where did you send it?

[@nazarian3]

why not just fillet

[@AwesomeAndrew]

the reason to not fillet when doing a site plan is that if the site plan is not a simple rectangle with all boundaries being equal, you will not see if there is a gap or misalignment when drawing up the plan. Filleting in this instance would often extend the boundary lengths to greater than the survey plan shows which should be avoided.

[@danielmaynard9446]

Thank you for your video, it was extremely helpful. Would i please be able to get your email address to ask a question regarding site plans, im just needing a little help, it would be greatly appreciated
