AutoCAD 2016 Tutorial Second Level 3D Modeling

<p> The primary goal of AutoCAD 2016 Tutorial Second Level 3D Modeling is to introduce the aspects of computer based three dimensional modeling. This text is intended to be used as a training guide for both students and professionals. </p> <p> The chapters in this book cover AutoCAD 2016 and proceed in a pedagogical fashion to guide you from constructing 3D wire frame models, 3D surface models, and 3D solid models to making multiview drawings and rendering images. The text takes a hands-on, exercise-intensive approach to all the important 3D modeling techniques and concepts. This book contains a series of twelve tutorial style chapters designed to introduce CAD users to 3D modeling with AutoCAD 2016. Users upgrading from a previous release of the AutoCAD software will also find this text helpful. </p> <p> The basic premise of this book is that the more 3D designs you create using AutoCAD 2016 the better you learn the software. With this in mind each tutorial introduces a new set of commands and concepts, building on previous chapters. By going through this book readers will establish a good basis for exploring and growing in the exciting field of Computer Aided Engineering. </p> <h3>Table of Contents</h3> <ol> <li>Getting Started </li> <li>AutoCAD 2D Isometric Drawings </li> <li>User Coordinate System (UCS) and the Z-axis </li> <li>3D Wireframe Modeling </li> <li>UCS, Viewports and Wireframe Modeling </li> <li>3D Surface Modeling </li> <li>Solid Modeling - Constructive Solid Geometry </li> <li>Regions, Extrude and Solid Modeling </li> <li>Multiview Drawings from 3D Models </li> <li>Symmetrical Features in Designs </li> <li>Advanced Modeling Tools and Techniques </li> <li>Conceptual Design Tools and Techniques </li> <li>Introduction to Photorealistic Renderings <br /> Index </li> </ol>
