Learning AutoCAD 2005 (A Self-Directed Approach)
No reviews yet.
Every effort has been made to provide an environment which covers the two main uses of AutoCAD: mechanical and architectural drafting. Although diverse, these fields are related enough such that beginning CAD skills learned in one area can be adapted to the other. Skills learned in these tutorials are also transferable to electrical, civil, structural, textile design, interior design, and landscape design.
After completing this text, the student should be able to create simple multi-view projections of mechanical objects and plan/elevation views of architectural features.
