The Engineering Drawings Fundamentals Training course is designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the principles, practices, and techniques used in technical drawing for engineering applications. The course covers a broad range of topics, including orthographic projection, dimensioning, tolerancing, and the use of standard symbols and abbreviations.
The course begins with an introduction to engineering drawing and the role it plays in the design and production of mechanical parts and assemblies. Students learn about the different types of drawings used in engineering, including sketches, assembly drawings, and detailed part drawings, and how to create and interpret each type of drawing.
The training course then delves into the principles of orthographic projection, which is the method used to create two-dimensional views of three-dimensional objects. Students learn about the different types of projection, including first-angle and third-angle projection, and how to create and interpret orthographic views.
The next section of the course focuses on dimensioning and tolerancing, which are critical aspects of technical drawing. Students learn about the different types of dimensions and tolerances, how to apply them to engineering drawings, and how to ensure that drawings accurately represent the intended design.
The course also covers the use of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T), which is a standardized system for specifying and controlling the dimensions and tolerances of mechanical parts and assemblies. Students learn about the different types of GD&T symbols and concepts, how to interpret GD&T drawings, and how to apply GD&T to engineering designs.
Another important topic covered in the course is the use of standard symbols and abbreviations in technical drawing. Students learn about the most common symbols and abbreviations used in engineering drawings, and how to create and interpret drawings that use these symbols and abbreviations.
Throughout the course, students are also introduced to various software tools used in engineering drawing, such as computer-aided design (CAD) software. Students learn how to use these tools to create and modify technical drawings, and how to ensure that drawings are accurate and meet industry standards.
By the end of the course, students have a thorough understanding of the fundamentals of engineering drawing and are able to create, interpret, and modify technical drawings used in a variety of engineering applications. They have also gained the knowledge and skills needed to ensure that drawings accurately represent design intent, meet industry standards, and are suitable for use in production and assembly.
