Product Description
Produce professional-quality engineering drawings while taking advantage of the newest features and functions of the latest software release! The AutoCAD 2002 Tutor for Engineering Graphics is a "must" for students and professionals alike. Written by a successful AutoCAD Training Center (ATC) Manager and long-time member of the AutoCAD Exam Board, every chapter of this results-driven primer features a unique blend of command-specific exercises, step-by-step tutorials, and realistic drawing problems. Organized for effective teaching and learning, the first seven chapters lead readers through AutoCAD basics, from what it takes to begin constructing simple drawings through modification of object properties once they are placed on screen. The next section of the book continues to build upon AutoCAD basics while introducing the art of producing engineering drawings, including: orthographic views, drawing layout in the paper space environment, dimensioning, production of section views, and more! Advanced topics such as DesignCenter, use of external reference and image files, and generation of orthographic views from a 3D model are also featured. Productivity is enhanced as readers learn how to use AutoCAD 2002 to respond efficiently and effectively to all types of engineering drawing and design challenges.
