Course Details

AutoCAD® is computer-aided design (CAD) software that helps architects, engineers, and construction professionals to create concise and precise 2D and 3D drawings. It provides workflow streamline as Draft, annotate, and design 2D geometry and 3D models with solids, surfaces, and mesh objects.

It makes the user enable to automate tasks such as comparing drawings, counting, adding blocks, creating schedules, and more. AutoCAD has the  flexibility to customize with add-on apps and APIs. This course is designed to guide the student to the Drawing fundamental procedures that they will use throughout the design process. 

Lessons will start regarding the UI and Basic drawing techniques, modification, and visualization of Drawing segments and then advance to modeling of Basic Drafting and modification tools like Line Circle, rectangle, polygon Ellipse, Move, Copy, Offset, Mirror, Rotate and Scale etc. Finally, the lessons regarding scheduling, quantification, and material will allow the student to start in the construction documentation phase.
