1. Course Description:
The course includes fundamentals and techniques of technical drawing and standard practices of the same so
that design ideas can be adequately communicated and produced. It introduces students to the theories of
projection and the concepts of engineering drawing using the most widely used CAD application software,
AutoCAD. Basic AutoCAD commands will also be introduced.
The course covers the following topics: Introduction to AutoCAD basic commands; theory of projections;
orthographic projections; isometric projections; projection of points, lines, planes, and solids; section of solids;
and developments of surfaces.

2. Scope and objective of the course:

Computerized drafting is widely used, and it provides accurate and easily modifiable graphics entities, easy
data storage and retrieval facility and enhances creativity.
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
• Read and interpret engineering drawings
• Identify the three principal projection planes
• Draw 2-dimensional orthographic projections from given 3-dimensional views
• Create an isometric drawing using AutoCAD
• Comprehend orthographic and multi-view projection
• Apply the concept of cutting planes to create the various types of sectional views
• Become conversant with appropriate use of AutoCAD software for drafting
