Description
AutoCAD Essentials Training enables students to create a basic 2D drawing in the AutoCAD software. Even at this fundamental level, the AutoCAD software is one of the most sophisticated computer applications that you are likely to encounter. Therefore learning to use it can be challenging.
This training covers the essential core topics for working with the AutoCAD software. The teaching strategy is to start with a few basic tools that enable the student to create and edit a simple drawing, and then continue to develop those tools. More advanced tools are also introduced throughout the training.
- Understanding the AutoCAD workspace and user interface.
- Using basic drawing, editing, and viewing tools.
- Organizing drawing objects on layers.
- Inserting reusable symbols (blocks).
- Preparing a layout to be plotted.
- Adding text, hatching, and dimensions.
By the end of the course, participants should be able to:
-
- Drawing a 2D layout with Basic Drawing Tool
- Manage User Coordinate System
- Managing a drawing with Layers
- Annotate drawings and plotting
- Create more complex surfaces and modifying solids
- Organize drawing for Modeling & Rendering
