Course

Unit 1

Introduction to Engineering Graphics and 3D Modeling.

• Introduction to BIS of Engineering Drawing – Line type, dimensioning,
• Significance of 3D modeling
• Introduction to 3D Modeling Software

Unit 2

Orthographic and Isometric Projections in 3D

• Understanding orthographic projections of points, lines, planes, and solids in 3D
• Developing 2D projections of 3D
• Developing sectional views of 3D models of solids
• Developing isometric projections from 3D models of solids
• Real-world applications of orthographic

Unit 3

Development of Lateral Surfaces

• Developing lateral surfaces of right regular prisms, cylinders, pyramids, and cones
• Understanding the development of surfaces in 3D models
• Real-world applications of surface development

Unit 4

Advanced 3D Modeling Techniques

• Advanced modeling techniques in 3D Modeling Software (Autodesk® Fusion 360®)
• Creating complex 3D models using multiple tools and techniques
• Applications of advanced 3D modeling techniques in various industries
• Exporting 3D models for prototyping and manufacturing

Note: The course is designed to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of engineering graphics, including 2D and 3D modeling techniques. The course will also cover various real-world applications of these techniques and how they are used in different industries. Students will be expected to complete assignments and projects using 3D Modeling Software (Autodesk® Fusion 360®).

The classroom learning will be supplemented with a workbook, where the students shall have manual drawing practice for all projection-related topics.
