Description:
Taking the reader step-by-step through the features of AutoCAD,
the author provides a practical, structured course of work matched to
the latest release of this software. After introducing first principles
and the creation of 2D technical drawings, he goes on to demonstrate
the construction of 3D solid and surface model drawings and rendering
in the second part. All the new features of the 2008 software release
are taken into account, in particular the new workspace for 2D
drafting, faster rendering, new rendering methods, more materials, and
improved lighting methods. The 2D chapters are also suitable for those
learning how to use AutoCAD LT 2008.
Introduction to AutoCAD 2008 includes:

• Hundreds of full-colour drawings and screen shots illustrating the stages within the design process
  
• Worked examples and exercises throughout the text, linking the use of AutoCAD to real-world engineering practice
  
• Start of chapter learning outcome summaries and end of chapter revision notes and exercises to check the readers' understanding
  

Suitable for all new users of AutoCAD, this book is particularly
applicable to introductory level undergraduate courses and vocational
courses in engineering and construction. Further Education students in
the UK will find this an ideal textbook to cater for the relevant CAD
units of BTEC National and BTEC Higher National Engineering schemes
from Edexcel, and the City & Guilds 4353 and 2303 qualifications.
