AutoCAD Creating and presenting 3D models |
Days: |
2 |
| Description:
|
This course provides a basic understanding of how to design and modify 3D models using AutoCAD® software. Creating 3D models helps users better visualize and present designs that are created with CAD.
This course introduces students to the fundamental concepts and workflows for creating 3D models with AutoCAD. Students explore how to create and modify both solid and surface models. Students learn how to present their designs while they are still being created, using visualization tools such as visual styles, model walk and fly throughs, materials, and lighting.
Students also learn how to output 3D models from the CAD system to either paper or a distributable, electronic version. The concepts and practices taught will help students take their AutoCAD designs to the next dimension – 3D!
Hands-on exercises throughout the course demonstrate the modeling process using techniques that can be applied to the mainstream drafting industries. The exercises printed in the book are also provided in an on-screen format that can be viewed next to AutoCAD.
