-
5.00 Credits
Introduces computer-aided drafting (CAD) and examines the hardware that makes up a CAD workstation. It also covers the operating system (Microsoft Windows) that enables the equipment to function as a unit. The course shows how to use AutoCAD to set up drawings and construct lines, circles, arcs, other shapes, geometric constructions and text. Students use display and editing techniques as well to obtain information about their drawings and work with drawing files. This course also introduces recommended drafting standards for students to use for properly preparing drawings with AutoCAD.
-
3.00 Credits
Students use computers to study descriptive geometry as it applies to drafting and they determine true length of lines, true shapes of planes and apply descriptive geometry to real problems. Students also create flat pattern layouts for form three dimensional shapes. Prerequisite: MCD 116 Introduction to CAD or instructor approval.
-
3.00 - 4.00 Credits
Students use computers for architectural detailing problems, working with foundation details, wall sections, roof details and stairway details. Using the computer, students draw a set of plans for a house of their own design. Prerequisite: MCD 114 Architectural Drafting and Design or instructor approval.
-
3.00 - 4.00 Credits
Explores the three-dimensional construction and viewing capabilities of AutoCAD. Topics covered include a review of point coordinate entry and the user coordinate system (UCS). Spherical and cylindrical coordinate entry, 3D viewing and display techniques, construction of 3D solid primitives, 2D regions, solid modeling composites and surfaces are also introduced. The use of multiple viewports for 3D constructions and creating 2D layouts are covered. Visual styles and rendering are also discussed. Prerequisite: MCD 115 Machine Drafting and Design or instructor approval.
-
3.00 - 5.00 Credits
Students learn how to draw machine pars on the computer and the most common methods used to illustrate these parts. Students understand the method and reason for using these techniques. Students work in a parametric modeling program to complete all assignments for this course. Prerequisite: MCD 124 Advanced AutoCAD or instructor approval.
-
3.00 Credits
Students use the computers to learn how to utilize threedimensional software to design houses. This course provides instruction in how to use the software and draw walls, windows, doors, foundations and roofs. Prerequisite: MCD 114 Architectural Drafting and Design or instructor approval.
-
3.00 Credits
Students learn how to draw machine pars on the computer and the most common methods used to illustrate these parts. Students understand the method and reason for using these techniques. Students work in a parametric modeling program to complete all assignments for this course. Students will understand assembly drawings and how to convert these assembly drawings into a working print. Prerequisite: MCD 130 Basic Solidworks or instructor approval.
-
3.00 Credits
Students use the computers to learn how to utilize threedimensional software to design houses. This course provides instruction in how to add interior furniture, terrains, elevations, working drawings, presentation drawings and how to use the camera functions. Prerequisite: MCD 132 Basic Chief Architect or instructor approval.
-
3.00 - 4.00 Credits
Introduces students to the application and reinforcement of drafting and employability principles in an actual job setting. This internship acquaints the student with realistic work situations and provides insights into a drafting job. Topics include appropriate work habits, acceptable job performance, application of drafting/CAD knowledge and skills, interpersonal relations and development of productivity. Prerequisite: Instructor approval.
-
3.00 Credits
An in-depth study designed to develop a basic working knowledge in geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T). It is delivered per the ASME Y14.5M, 1994 standard. This program has been presented and refined over the past 25 years and covers what personnel need to know to work in an industrial environment on a daily basis. The course includes emphasis on all the basics, such as the rules, measurement theory, the datum reference frame, form, orientation, profile and positional tolerancing. The program materials contain a variety of computer color animated graphics, video clips and plastic models which allow students to clearly understand the concepts.
