Lec-35, Lab-35
Credit, Degree Applicable
ADVISE:
CAD 181 or equivalent skills/course work or 100 hours of industrial work experience in basic AutoCAD
Industrial application of AutoCAD drawing editor on large- scale projects. Various topics include model layout, plotting to scale, blocks, external referenced files, attributes and extraction of "non-graphic" data stored within the drawing files, the control of display to reduce regeneration time, three-dimensional coordinate system, 3D wireframe and surface modeling, the operation of various hardcopy output devises including pen plotting and printer plotting.
