You will have a good foundation as to why mechanical design is used, learn about drafting standards organizations, and know the difference between pictorial views and orthographic views.
Understand why two dimensional drawings planes (Paper) are used to represent 3D objects on Technical Drawings.
To understand the construction of Multi-views; thus, representing fully the size, and shape of an object using one or more views.
Understanding the glass box theory, and how it is used to describe the arrangement of the multi-views on a drawing with respect to their relationship to each another.
Understanding why view alignment is so important on a drawing.
Recognize Line types on a mechanical drawing
Create Line types using CAD software
Learning to use lines types in a drawing
I designed this course to help you learn to use engineering graphics as a tool for mechanical design, by sketching, reading and visualizing objects to 2D views for manufacturing. This course will teach you the basics for getting started in the engineering design field, and will be a great foundation for learning 3D modeling design in more advanced courses. Also, you will learn why 2D design is still very important and useful in the manufacturing industry. I also designed this course to be easily understood in a very practical way.
Learn These Design Drafting Applications and Apply Them on Drawings
· Orthographic Views
· Sketching
· The Meaning of Different Line Types and How to Use Them
· Knowing Drafting Symbols and How They are Used
· Applying Drawing Dimensions and Proper Notation
In an ever-changing industry with new breakthroughs in technology, there will always be a demand for qualified people that can communicate ideas through the use of graphics that are very technical and exact. Also, these people can make use of this type of communication in the form of prints and working drawings. This beginning course will help you with the skills you will need to begin to compete in today’s industrial workplace. The course will utilize PowerPoint presentations, audio lectures, and screen shots to demonstrate the drafting concepts.
