This book covers most of the contents given in Engineering Drawing and Technical Drawing courses that are given at the undergraduate level for Engineering students. It is written in a short and precise way that is easy to read and understand and cover the following topics: Introduction, Theory of Projections, Multiview Drawings, Pictorial Drawings, Auxilary Views, Sectional Views and Development and Intersection of surfaces.
this book includes Geometrical Drawing & Computer Aided Drafting in First Angle Projection. Useful for the students of B.E./B.Tech for different Technological Universities of India. Covers all the topics of engineering drawing with simple explanation.
This student friendly and self-explanatory textbook attempts to help readers, engineering students in India, grasp the basic concepts of engineering drawing clearly and easily. Care has been taken to include topics that mesh well with the syllabi of most universities, colleges and polytechnic institutes in India. Important topics, such as projection of solids, auxiliary projections, section of solids, isometric projections, orthographic projections and projection of planes, have been discussed comprehensively. Heavy emphasis has also been put on the actual figures described in the text, both from the first angle and third angle projection methods. A chapter on computer graphics further integrates these concepts with modern manual computer aided design. Finally, hundreds of solved examples, practice problems and objective-type questions with answers have been added to ensure the learning objectives of each chapter have been achieved.
The Manual of Engineering Drawing has long been recognised as the student and practising engineer's guide to producing engineering drawings that comply with ISO and British Standards. The information in this book is equally applicable to any CAD application or manual drawing. The second edition is fully in line with the requirements of the new British Standard BS8888: 2002, and will help engineers, lecturers and students with the transition to the new standards.BS8888 is fully based on the relevant ISO standards, so this book is also ideal for an international readership. The comprehensive scope of this book encompasses topics including orthographic, isometric and oblique projections, electric and hydraulic diagrams, welding and adhesive symbols, and guidance on tolerancing.Written by a member of the ISO committee and a former college lecturer, the Manual of Engineering Drawing combines up-to-the-minute technical accuracy with clear, readable explanations and numerous diagrams. This approach makes this an ideal student text for vocational courses in engineering drawing and undergraduates studying engineering design / product design.Colin Simmons is a member of the BSI and ISO Draughting Committees and an Engineering Standards Consultant. He was formerly Standards Engineer at Lucas CAV.* Fully in line with the latest ISO Standards* A textbook and reference guide for students and engineers involved in design engineering and product design* Written by a former lecturer and a current member of the relevant standards committees
With increased emphasis on visualization, the design process, and modern CAD technology, this edition of our popular Engineering Drawing and Design book provides readers with an approach to drafting that is consistent with the National Standards Institute (NSI) and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). Newly reorganized, the first half of the book focuses attention on sketching, views, descriptive geometry, dimensioning, and pictorial drawings. The second half of the book invites readers to build upon these skills as they explore manufacturing materials and processes that span all of the engineering disciplines, including: welding, fluid power, piping, electricity/electronics, HVAC, sheet metal, and more! Each chapter contains realistic examples, technically precise illustrations, problems and related tests. Step-by-step methods, plus layout guidelines for preparing technically precise engineering drawings from sketches, are also featured throughout the book to provide readers with a logical approach to setting up and completing drawing problems. Ideal for use in introductory and advanced engineering graphics programs, the extraordinarily complete and current information in this book makes it an invaluable reference for professional engineers.
Fourth edition of the book is enlarged to cover the syllabi of all universities. It is structured to cover the principles and practices as recommended in BIS: SP 46:2003 Salient Features - BIS standards are followed throughout the book in first angle projection as recommended and uniform aligned system of dimensioning. - Covers all units systematically and step by step with numerous examples worked out in stages. This enables the student and staff to understand the subject with ease and enthusiasm by self study. - Students invariably find it difficult to follow the chapters on projection of points and lines especially line inclined to both the planes. Special care is taken to explain this in 4 stages of drawing for easy understanding. - All other chapters are also enlarged with more worked examples. - Chapter on AutoCAD is revised to cover more details in making the drawing through AutoCAD.
Originally published in the Soviet Union in 1968, this book provides a unique viewpoint, and the description below comes from the original publication.This textbook for the students of engineering courses at technical schools covers the basic elements of descriptive geometry, projection and engineering drawing and drawing techniques. The material in each section is illustrated by examples drawn from engineering practice, while the figures and illustrations follow the latest technical and industrial developments. To help the student get a better grasp of the subject, drawings of parts and units are supplemented with photographs and axonometric projections. Thanks to the numerous examples and exercises provided, the book can be used for self-instruction and home study.Sergei Bogolyubov is an experienced Soviet teacher and authority on engineering drawing, which he has been teaching for over thirty years. He has done much work both on teaching methods and on the preparation of textbooks and manuals. He is also the author of an atlas of machine components and manuals of the equipment of drawing offices. His books Engineering Drawing, Problems in Drawing, and A Course of Technical Drawing are widely used.Alexander Voinov is Associate Professor of Drawing at the Bauman Higher Technical School in Moscow. He is the author of a number of textbooks and teaching aids on engineering drawing, and has twenty-five years experience of teaching at colleges of technology.
The primary objective of this book is to provide an easy approach to the basic principles of Engineering Drawing, which is one of the core subjects for undergraduate students in all branches of engineering. Further, it offers comprehensive coverage of topics required for a first course in this subject, based on the author’s years of experience in teaching this subject. Emphasis is placed on the precise and logical presentation of the concepts and principles that are essential to understanding the subject. The methods presented help students to grasp the fundamentals more easily. In addition, the book highlights essential problem-solving strategies and features both solved examples and multiple-choice questions to test their comprehension.
