Learn to construct a hyperbola with eccentricity 4/3 by locating the focus, plotting related points, and drawing the tangent and normal at any point.
Explore the cycloid traced by a point on a circle of 50 m diameter rolling on a line, and construct the locus, tangent, and normal to the curve.
Learn free hand sketching of a 3D object using projection and axis lines to create left and right side views, then model the dimensions and sizes.
Explore the introduction to projection of straight lines in auto graphic projections, including vertical and horizontal planes, front and top views. Learn to handle lines inclined to the horizontal plane.
Learn to project a regular pentagon on a plane inclined to horizontal at 55 degrees and to vertical at 30 degrees, using projection lines on the x y axis.
Explore the introduction to projection of solids, including prisms, cylinders, triangles, squares, and rectangles, and learn about bases, apexes, generators, cross-sections, and cylindrical surfaces.
Learn to project a freely suspended pentagonal solid by drawing axis-based projections, locating the center of gravity at 60 units, and modeling the projection lines through base points.
Develop the development of surfaces for engineering parts, including cylinders, prisms, cones, sectors, and cubes. Derive patterns from base geometry such as circumference, base radius, and equilateral triangles.
Master the isometric view of a frustum with a square base and top of 14 by 14, height 60 m, and a center distance of 24, with the drawing procedure.
Learn how to construct the perspective projection of a hexagonal prism using a station point, picture plane, and ground plane, locating projection lines and intersections to obtain the view.
This course offers a comprehensive introduction to Engineering Drawing and Graphics, designed to build strong foundational skills essential for all engineering disciplines. Tailored for beginners and students from core engineering backgrounds, the course covers both the theoretical understanding and practical applications of engineering drawing in various industrial contexts.
Learners will start with the basics of engineering drawing standards, including line types, lettering, and dimensioning. They will progress to mastering the construction of basic conic sections such as ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas, which form the basis for many mechanical and structural components.
The course further explores advanced topics such as orthographic views, isometric projection, perspective projection, sectional views, and development of surfaces, helping learners visualize and represent three-dimensional objects accurately on paper or CAD software. Each module integrates real-world industrial applications to demonstrate how engineering graphics is used in design, manufacturing, and construction.
Solved examples and practice exercises are provided in every module to reinforce concepts and improve visualization skills. Through consistent practice, learners will gain hands-on drafting experience, preparing them for academic assessments and future engineering projects.
By the end of the course, students will have a solid command of engineering drawing principles and be equipped to apply these skills confidently in industrial design and communication.
