Topics covered include geometric figures, multi-view working drawings, auxiliary views, sectional drawings, pattern drawings, and pictorial drawings. Correct application of CAD techniques and commands are also emphasized and integrated through the course to provide a solid foundation for future CAD classes. These CAD techniques include layer control, dimensioning techniques, file management, and the use of prototype drawings. Students use computers to apply the mechanical drafting principles and techniques from CTDR109 to specific assignments. Utilizing a CAD station, students create geometric figures, multi-view working drawings, auxiliary drawings, sectional drawings, pattern drawings, and pictorial drawings.
Students then reproduce assigned drawings on a variety of output devices.
Correct application of CAD techniques and commands are emphasized as additional subject matter is presented.
