Engineering Drawing

This textbook introduces the basic concepts of engineering drawing and graphics, supplemented with numerous solved examples and exercises.

This textbook endeavours to offer students the basics of engineering graphics and drawing. Supplemented with many solved examples, practice problems and multiple-choice questions, it covers important topics like projection of solids, auxiliary projections, section of solids, isometric projections, orthographic projections and projection of planes.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.
