Engineering Drawing from First Principles: Using AutoCAD
Main description:
Engineering Drawing From First Principles is a guide to good
draughting for students of engineering who need to learn how to
produce technically accurate and detailed designs to British and
International Standards. Written by Dennis Maguire, an experienced
author and City and Guilds chief examiner, this text is designed
for use on Further Education and University courses where a basic
understanding of draughtsmanship and CAD is necessary. Although not
written as an AutoCAD tutor, the book will be a useful introduction
to good CAD practice.
Part of the Revision and Self-Assessment series, 'Engineering
Drawing From First Principles' is ideal for the student working
alone. More than just a series of tests, the book helps assess
current understanding, diagnose areas of weakness and directs the
student to further help and guidance. This is a self-contained
text, but it will also work well in conjunction with the highly
successful 'Manual of Engineering Drawing', by Simmons and
Maguire.
- Can be used with AutoCAD or AutoCAD LT
- Provides typical exam questions and carefully described worked
solutions
- Allows students to work alone
