Graphics
Basic graphical skills are introduced in ENGR111
through hand sketching and an introduction to AutoCAD- a computer
aided drafting tool. Students use pre-designated drawings templates
and tool kits to complete the drawing assignments.
AutoCAD is used extensively in ENGR112 to develop
intricate and detailed graphics from the basic skills learned in
ENGR111.
Some important graphical topics covered in ENGR111
include:
- Sketching and Lettering - Basic drawing skills
- Orthographics or Multi-View Drawings - Learning
how to operate in multiple 2D views
- Pictorials - Learing how to operate in 3D views
- Standard Features - Learning about threads,
screws and other specific drawing details
- Scaling/Dimensioning - Learning to establish
scales and dimensions for orthographic and pictorial drawings
- AutoCAD Basics - Exposure to basic function
and commands within AutoCAD
