Course Duration: 2 Days

Course Overview

This course is designed to give a good fundamental understanding of 3D modelling, It covers Solid Modelling, 3D Faces, Model/Paper Space, bi-directional, Boolean, Adaptive.

Course Objectives

    • The primary objective of this course is to teach delegates the basic commands necessary for 3D modelling and how to create scaled drafting views / paper space using AutoCAD. Upon completion of the course, the student will:
    • • Become familiar with the AutoCAD 3D user interface
      • Understand the concepts and features of 3D AutoCAD
      • How to edit 3D models in AutoCAD
      • Present drawings based on 3D model within AutoCAD
      • Develop a level of comfort and confidence with 3D AutoCAD through hands-on experience

Prerequisites

    • 2D CAD, ideally AutoCAD, experience is helpful to progress quickly through this course. However other, drafting, design, or engineering experience is useful. It is recommended that you have a working knowledge of Microsoft supported systems.

Target Audience for this Course

    • This course is aimed at those who want a clear and straightforward insight into the world of 3D Solid Modelling within AutoCAD.
