Course Description
Introduces manual and computer-aided drafting including hand sketching, drafting standards, pictorial drawings, and dimensioning. Includes creation of 2-D drawings and 3-D solid models with AutoCAD. Prerequisite: ENGR 101.Intended Outcomes for the course
The student will be able to:
- Sketch two-dimensional orthographic drawings from three-dimensional isometric views.
- Sketch isometric pictorials given two-dimensional orthographic drawings.
- Create two-dimensional orthographic drawings using AutoCAD software, complete with construction lines, dimensions, and layers.
- Demonstrate competency with various drawings aides and modification commands.
- Create three-dimensional solid models using AutoCAD software.
- Develop assembly type drawings using multiple solid models.
- Generate paper space layouts from model space geometry.
Outcome Assessment Strategies
Individual and full class discussion; lab drawing assignments; exams; and final project deliverables may be used to assess
outcomes.
Course Content (Themes, Concepts, Issues and Skills)
Themes, concepts, and issues:1. Civil, industrial, manufacturing, mechanical and other engineering students must be able to visualize solid objects to succeed in subsequent mechanics and design courses.
2. Engineers need to be able to communicate with each other, and with manufacturing and construction personnel, using graphical representations of physical objects.
3. Two-dimensional and solid modeling software is widely used in the engineering professions.
4. Many engineering graduates enter the workplace by performing manual and computerized graphics manipulations.
Content:
1. Orthographic projections.
2. Types and priorities of lines.
3. Auxiliary views.
4. Sectional views.
