CAD 157 - Engineering Graphics III


Last Date of Approval: Fall 2022

3 Credits
Total Lecture Hours: 45
Total Lab Hours: 0
Total Clinical Hours: 0
Total Work-Based Experience Hours: 0

Course Description:
Coursework will focus on using computer-aided design software to develop technical drawings using advanced view development techniques. Students will study and create advanced sections, auxiliaries, revolutions, and developments. Students will also learn to apply advanced dimensioning and tolerancing, develop dimensioning based on fits and allowances, and create assembly drawings. Students will develop the fundamental skills and reasoning necessary for interpreting and clearly describing technical information according to industry-accepted practices. This knowledge will create an awareness of the importance of standardization and communication in everyday life.

Prerequisites: Engineering Graphics II (CAD 156), Intro to CAD (CAD 101), Solid Modeling I (CAD 164)

The prerequisites may be waived if the instructor determines that the student has completed equivalent coursework.
