Technical Drawing 101 with AutoCAD 2019

About this book

Technical Drawing 101 covers topics ranging from the most basic such as making freehand multiview sketches of machine parts to the advancedcreating an AutoCAD dimension style containing the style settings defined by the ASME Y14.5-2009 Dimensioning and Tolerancing standard. But unlike the massive technical drawing reference texts on the market Technical Drawing 101 aims to present just the right mix of information and projects that can be reasonably covered by faculty and assimilated by students in one semester. Both mechanical and architectural projects are introduced to capture the interest of more students and to offer a broader appeal. The authors have also created extensive video training (120 videos 15 hours total) that is included with every copy of the book. In these videos the authors start off by getting students comfortable with the user interface and demonstrating how to use many of AutoCADs commands and features. The videos progress to more advanced topics where the authors walk students through completing several of the projects in the book.
