10 courses with the subject DRAF, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
DRAF 1210Computer-Aided Drafting I4
Computer-Aided Drafting I introduces two-dimensional computer-aided drafting (CAD) and examines the hardware of a CAD workstation. It also covers the operating system that enables the equipment to function as a unit. The course shows how to use the CAD system to set up drawings and construct lines, circles, arcs, other shapes, geometric constructions, and text entities. The student will use display and editing techniques as well as obtain information about their drawing files. This course also introduces recommended national and international drafting standards for students to use for properly preparing drawings with CAD.
Computer-Aided Drafting II examines three-dimensional drafting, dimensioning, blocks and attributes, section views, external references, multi-view layouts, command aliases, scripts, and object linking and embedding. Students will learn how to use CAD to dimension drawings, create section lines and graphic patterns, design symbols and attributes for multiple uses, and create sheet sets. Student drawings will be properly plotted or printed. This course also covers recommended drafting standards and practices for students to use for properly preparing drawings with CAD.
Advanced Computer Aided Design covers advanced three-dimensional construction and viewing capabilities of solid modeling and parametric modeling programs. Topics covered include parametric modeling fundamentals and constraints, solid geometry concepts, geometric construction tools, part drawings and associative functionality, assembly modeling, model analysis, and collaboration between different design software programs.
Construction Estimating/Project Management is a study of construction estimating techniques and applications related to technical aspects required for quality material take-offs in construction estimate preparation and their relationship to the project management function.
DRAF 2110Architectural/Construction Drafting and Design4
Architectural/Construction Drafting and Design familiarizes students with common construction and design methods used in single and multi-family dwellings and commercial buildings, architectural details, specifications, production of residential and commercial working drawings with design sketching and CAD software, interpretation and use of local building and zoning codes, and perform applicable research. Practical, real-work approach to assignments and problem solving will be emphasized.
Pipe Drafting and Design is designed to provide the students with the basic knowledge needed to create process piping drawings. The student is exposed to the fundamental concepts and techniques used within the industry. The components of piping systems are covered, and the student will put the components together to create various types of piping drawings used in the industry. The course is designed to teach the student to read, comprehend, and create piping drawings, working both individually and in a team environment.
Structural Detailing and Design emphasizes AISC and ASTM standards for preparing structural steel design drawings and detail drawings utilizing typical design calculations for commercial and industrial building applications. The course also covers the design of structural steel connections, beams, weldments, and bolting requirements for fabrication.
DRAF 2510Geometrical Dimensioning and Tolerancing3
Geometrical Dimensioning and Tolerancing covers the fundamental principles of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing according to the latest ANSI and ISO standards. Students will apply geometric dimensioning and tolerancing symbols and understand their use and functional relationship to the manufacturing and quality process.
Machine Design is the study of the mechanical components and other design considerations required to manufacture a product such as fixtures, tooling, material costs, and maintenance. This course will also cover material properties, design elements, and elementary mechanics in determining strength of materials.
DRAF 2990Special Topics in Industrial Drafting Design Technology1-4
Special Topics in Industrial Drafting Design Technology emphasizes independent study and is designed to enhance the student’s ability to analyze a problem and select a workable alternative. The student will design a unit that can be manufactured, and a complete set of working drawings is required as well as a daily record book.
