Description
Summary:With the use of real world examples and illustrations, Foundations of Graphics for Engineers introduces the student to the fundamental concepts of engineering design graphics and their role in the design process. This book focuses on using engineering graphics to aid in the design process, rather than existing as a drafting textbook aimed at future CAD operators. The authors highlight common techniques, practices, and standards used in industry in a manner that is motivating and easy to understand. Topics include visualization, orthographic proejction, dimensions and tolerances, scaling, working drawings, and parametric solid modeling. Opportunities to practice, study, and learn abound, with problems at the end of each chapter, quizzes, and real assembly modeling projects.
