This would be the method  etc its all been done before mainly in lisp. 

 

Get get say lower left point. Length &  width draw a pline 4 sides

Draw 4 plines that are the green offsets you know the co-ords of the 4 corner points.

Take the Length /400 get x.xx you take the fix and work out the odd end measurements

Draw the circles top bottom

Work out the width = /400 etc

Draw the circles.

 

(defun c:panel ( / len wid pt1 pt2 pt3 pt4)
(setq pt1 (getpoint "\nPick lower left Corner"))
(setq Len (Getreal "\nEnter length"))
(setq wid (Getreal "\nWidth"))
(setq pt2 (polar Pt1 0.0 len))
(setq pt3 (polar pt2 (/ pi 2.0) wid))
(setq pt4 (polar pt3 pi len))
(command "pline" pt1 pt2 pt3 pt4 "c")
)
(C:panel)

Ok so for green lines do a change layer (setvar 'clayer "greenlines")

you work out 3 new pts using polar command again (setq pt5 (polar pt1 (* 1.5 pi) off))

work out pt6 

then (command "pline" pt1 pt5 pt6 pt2 "")

redo for 3 other sides

 

(setq num (fix (- (/ len 400.0) 1)))
(setq off2 ( / (- len (* num 400.0)) 2.0))

Now work out some more points for the circles 

do again for 3 other sides
