Summary
This reader-friendly, hardbound text focuses on using AutoCAD as a drafting tool, helping readers understand the foundations for the software's commands, learn basic skills, and progress into more advanced drawing areas such as dimensioning an object. Offers a non-discipline approach that is equally accessible to readers of mechanics, architecture or electronics, and weaves many examples and exercises throughout to expose users to real-world problems and situations. Concentrates on the 2D drafting functions of AutoCAD. Contains an overview, outline and objectives; numerous well-defined illustrations; iconed 'Skill Builder' and 'For the Professional' sections; boxed tutorials that 'walk' readers through a particular command or concept; short answer questions and a 'generic' assignment. Also contains an interactive website and a workdisk in the text. Appropriate as an introduction to AutoCAD.
