Descripción

Up and Running with AutoCAD® 2027: 2D and 3D Drawing, Design and Modeling presents a combination of step-by-step instructions, examples, and insightful explanations. The book emphasizes core concepts and practical application of AutoCAD in engineering, architecture, and design. To improve student learning, the book's early chapters have been revised and expanded with additional assignments, more explicit step-by-step guidance for the earliest assignments, improved readability, and a new concise drafting fundamentals reference section that focuses on orthographic projection, basic standards, and naming conventions.

Equally useful in instructor-led classroom training, self-study, or as a professional reference, the book is written by a long-time AutoCAD professor and instructor with the user in mind
