COURSE ATTAINMENT
• CO1: understand the fundamentals of engineering drawing including usages of drawing tools, line-
types, dimensioning, letter-writing, scales and other conventions.
• CO2: recognize and apply the conceptual framework of orthographic projections and acquire
visualization and drawing skills on both grid-sheets and software.
• CO3: learn the procedures to draw the isometric views of few commonly used objects on both grid
sheets and software.
• CO4: understand the usages of sectioning and to draw sectioned views on both grid-sheets and
software.
• CO5: impart the conceptual knowledge of digital fabrication using RPT and its fundamentals.
