Engineering Graphics Text and Workbook (Series 2)
This book focuses on strengthening 3D visualization skills through sketching exercises. It does not make reference to any particular computer-aided design software package. <P>Points emphasized: <BR>1. Shape representation and problem solving using freehand sketching. Assignments can be completed outside class. <BR>2. Surface Analysis -- A powerful approach to teaching visualization. <BR>3. Establishes a process for solving problems. Students can solve features of objects before they can see the shapes. <BR>4. Challenging problems. Worksheet layouts allow faster progress. <BR>5. Students learn how to think about shapes in three dimensions. <BR>6. Students can prove every line on a drawing. There is no question whether the answer is correct or not. <P><B>Table of Contents</B><BR> 1. Introduction <BR>2. Freehand Lettering <BR>3. Freehand Sketching <BR>4. Orthographic Projection <BR>5.
