Engineering Drawing [Videos]

Engineering Drawing is a fundamental course for almost all first-year engineering students that teaches the skills necessary to create and interpret technical drawings. This course introduces the basic principles of drawing, including projection methods, dimensioning, and tolerance. Students will learn how to use various drafting tools and techniques, such as sketching, line work, and lettering, to produce clear and accurate drawings.

The course typically covers orthographic projection, isometric projection, sections and sectional views, auxiliary views, and pictorial drawings. Students will also learn about geometric dimensioning and tolerancing, a system for specifying and controlling the tolerances of parts and assemblies.

In addition to developing technical drawing skills, students will learn to use computer-aided design (CAD) software to produce 2D and 3D models and drawings. They will also learn how to read and interpret engineering drawings, including the symbols and conventions used in the industry.

Overall, this course is designed to provide students with a solid foundation in engineering drawing, which is essential for success in various fields such as mechanical, civil, and electrical engineering.
