Features: AutoCAD 2006 Chinese Version Mechanical Design Basics is primarily written for beginners in CAD (Computer-Aided Design). In this book, readers will learn all the fundamental operations of AutoCAD. Additionally, to build a solid foundation, we introduce basic concepts of graphics when explaining all the important commands of AutoCAD. This is one of the three key features of the book. Integrating professional knowledge into the background explanations of command functions helps CAD beginners understand "why" they draw and learn to create industry-standard engineering drawings. This is the second key feature of the book. While both mechanical drafting conventions and geometric graphics are highly important, they can be relatively dry and unengaging. This book uniquely includes an interesting and professional "paper model" making practice in the last chapter to respond to the geometric graphics theory discussed in Chapter 8, allowing readers to see that graphic theory is not an irrelevant learning topic. This is the third key feature! It is a comprehensive and well-rounded professional AutoCAD book that balances theory and practice, and comes with a companion CD containing all the example source files of the book. The book consists of 16 chapters, introducing the powerful functions and operational techniques of AutoCAD. It begins with the history of AutoCAD, as well as the software and hardware configurations and related peripherals. It then covers basic operations, system settings, template file settings for drawing frames, the use of various drawing and editing commands, fundamental theories of graphics, drafting conventions for mechanical engineering, layer settings and operations, block graphics creation and usage, professional mechanical dimensioning functions, the application of "Express" tools, and concludes with exciting content such as paper model making practice, which is closely tied to graphic theory. This book is suitable for all design and drafting professionals in mechanical and related industries, as well as being the best textbook for students majoring in mechanical engineering or related fields.
