EG 123 - Applied Engineering Graphics/CAD1 lecture hours 3 lab hours 2 credits
Course Description
The objectives of this course are to acquaint the student with the operation of a CAD system and to apply projective geometry knowledge acquired in EG 122 to spatial problems both manually and on the computer. Specific topics will include perpendicularity, clearance distance, parallelism, piercing points and intersections. (prereq: EG 122 )
Course Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
- Have a greater awareness of spatial relationships and visualization
- Have the ability to understand and utilize projective geometry techniques in the solution of three-dimensional problems
- Have the ability to utilize three-dimensional computer graphics to generate, manipulate, and analyze graphical representations and spatial relationships
Prerequisites by Topic
- Isometric and orthographic sketching
- Scales
- Projection theory (auxiliary views, points, lines, planes, visibility)
- Spatial geometry (true lengths, point views, edge views, true size)
- Sections
- Dimensioning
Course Topics
- CAD generation and editing of 3-D wire geometry (8 classes)
- CAD view layout and dimensioning (4 classes)
- CAD solid model creation (5 classes)
