Hi everyone I need some help,let me repharse that I need a lot of help!
I have to deliver a lecture to some 3rd level Engineers ,and the topic that I have to cover is Engineering Drawings.
Some of the area’s that I have to cover are;
explain the relevance of engineering information
describe the difference between the abbreviaitions and notation used on various standard engineering drawings ,circuit diagrams or piping layouts
explain the use of CAD systems to produce engineering drawings
interpret drawings,dimensioning and labeling
describe how to use charts ,tables ,graphs and BS EN standards
describe how to extract information from drawings
describe how the use of engineering drawings to determine quality requirements.
If someone has some references to any of the above or can help in any way ,please let me know ,thanks
explain the use of CAD systems to produce engineering drawings
CAD(Computer Aided Design) is the use of computer technology for the design of objects, real or virtual. CAD often involves more than just shapes. As in the manual drafting of technical and engineering drawings, the output of CAD often must convey also symbolic information such as materials, processes, dimensions, and tolerances, according to application-specific conventions.
CAD may be used to design curves and figures in two-dimensional (“2D”) space; or curves, surfaces, or solids in three-dimensional (“3D”) objects.
CAD is an important industrial art extensively used in many applications, including automotive, shipbuilding, and aerospace industries, industrial and architectural design, prosthetics, and many more. CAD is also widely used to produce computer animation for special effects in movies, advertising and technical manuals. The modern ubiquity and power of computers means that even perfume bottles and shampoo dispensers are designed using techniques unheard of by shipbuilders of the 1960s. Because of its enormous economic importance, CAD has been a major driving force for research in computational geometry, computer graphics (both hardware and software), and discrete differential geometry.
