AutoCAD 3D Modeling - Part I Public Class

About the Class

Take your AutoCAD skills to the next level-master it s 3D modeling capabilities, using the same 2D commands and tools you are accustomed to drafting with, you can actually construct the object you are designing. From that model, you can produce rendering, and dimensioned, multi-view 2D drawings that will ensure accurate manufacture.
You get a complete and thoroughly illustrated explanation of all of the concepts and principles of AutoCAD’s 3D feature and you get experience using them with hands-on experience (you will be practicing the software with the teacher online).

Participants develop work flows and learn concepts for creating and editing solid and surface models with AutoCAD. Basic techniques for presenting these models using visualization tools, walk and fly through, materials and lighting are covered.
Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this subject the student will be able to:

• 1. Navigate 3D geometry using the viewcube, orbit and setting the viewpoint display.
• 2. Create solid primitives.
• 3. Create models from 2D profiles.
