Features: One of the key focuses of this book is on how to make the most of AutoCAD 2002's powerful functions when drawing graphics to achieve twice the result with half the effort. Therefore, the book incorporates many new and highly practical functions of AutoCAD 2002, such as polar and polar tracking lines. Another key focus is on using techniques, with over 50 detailed techniques explained in the book, ranging from commonly used ones (e.g., quick selection) to those specific to certain environments (e.g., using parallel lines to draw sports fields). For beginners, the book provides detailed explanations of some more challenging commands and options, allowing beginners to become proficient after a single reading. Since the book covers a substantial amount of content, the graphics have been created on a CD and included with the book. These graphics were drawn by the author in synchronization with the book's methods, and readers can also create these graphics using the book's instructions. As the book includes graphics for almost all types of civil buildings, architects can utilize the included CD to directly access the commonly used examples in the book, significantly reducing design workload.
The examples selected for the book emphasize practicality, with detailed introductions ranging from lighting plans of general residential buildings to master plans of residential communities. On the other hand, based on years of experience using AutoCAD, the author not only introduces general drawing methods of AutoCAD 2002 but also incorporates a wealth of AutoCAD 2002 drawing techniques. The book primarily focuses on the design of civil building plans, providing detailed introductions from lighting plans of general residential buildings to master plans of residential communities. The selected examples emphasize practicality. Additionally, the book introduces a large number of AutoCAD 2002 drawing techniques alongside general drawing methods.
The entire book is divided into six parts and 24 chapters based on its professional civil building drawings: establishing a common library of drawings used in the book, creating master plans, drawing architectural plans, drawing specialized plans, drawing elevations and sections, and drawing various system diagrams. Through numerous civil building examples, the book provides a detailed introduction to the use and techniques of AutoCAD 2002. This book is suitable for architects and designers with a certain foundation in AutoCAD for reference, as well as serving as a teaching reference for relevant majors in architectural colleges.
