Nptel: Engineering Drawing - Web Course

This course outline provides an introduction to engineering drawing for undergraduate engineering students. It covers fundamental concepts like visualization, graphics theory, standards and conventions. Over 12 weeks, it teaches manual drawing, geometrical constructions, scales, curves, projection techniques, sections of solids, development of surfaces, and axonometric and perspective projections. By the end of the course, students will be able to visualize engineering components by reading drawings. The goal is to provide students with a basic understanding of engineering drawing, which is the language of engineers.

Engineering Drawing - Web course


COURSE OUTLINE Engineering drawing is a basic course for all undergraduate Engineering program. Though Engineering drawing is considered as the language of engineers, most of the universities offer this course as a practical course with out any lecture component. This course is aimed at providing basic understanding of the fundamentals of Engineering Drawing; mainly visualization, graphics theory, standards & conventions of drawing, the tools of drawing and the use of Drawings in engineering applications. The topics covered are based on the syllabus for undergraduate studies in engineering. The course is planned to include sufficient simulations which would help the student in visualization of three dimensional objects and developing the drawing. The chapters are arranged in sequence and starts from the basic concepts of geometrical constructions & engineering curves, proceeds to the principles of projection techniques. By the end of the course it is expected that the students would be matured to visualize any engineering component by reading an engineering drawing. A number of chosen problems will be solved to illustrate the concepts clearly. Contents: Introduction & importance of engineering drawing, Manual drawing, drawing instruments and their uses, conventions in drawing, geometrical constructions, scales, curves in engineering practice, principles of projections, projections of points, lines, planes and solids, auxiliary projections, sections of solids:intersections of solids, development of surfaces, axinometric projection and perspective projections.
