14 courses with the subject CAD, 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.
Presents an interpretation of basic shop drawings, conventional systems, terminology, and principles used by the mechanical draftsman. Explains common electrical and electronic symbols, wiring diagrams, schematic drawings, and application of wiring diagrams. Lecture 2 hours.
Enhances the principles learned that are related directly to the field of drafting and design. Gives a more in-depth exposure to detail and working drawings, dimensioning, tolerancing and conventional drafting practices. Teaches CAD modeling, may include parametric modeling. (Credit will not be awarded for both CAD 140 and DRF 140.) Lecture 2 hours. Laboratory 2 hours.
Introduces technical drafting from the fundamentals through advanced drafting practices. Includes lettering, geometric construction, technical sketching, orthographic projection, sections, intersections, development, fasteners. Teaches theory and application of dimensioning and tolerances, pictorial drawing, and preparation of drawings. Part I of II. (Credit will not be awarded for both CAD 151 and DRF 151.) Lecture 1 hour. Laboratory 6 hours.
Introduces technical drafting from the fundamentals through advanced drafting practices. Includes lettering, geometric construction, technical sketching, orthographic projection, sections, intersections, development, fasteners. Teaches theory and application of dimensioning and tolerances, pictorial drawing, and preparation of drawings. Part II of II. (Credit will not be awarded for both CAD 152 and DRF 152.)
Introduces interpretation of various blueprints and working drawings. Applies basic principles and techniques such as visualization of an object, orthographic projection, technical sketching and drafting terminology.Requires outside preparation. (Credit will not be awarded for both CAD 160 and DRF 160.) Lecture 3 hours.
Emphasizes reading, understanding and interpreting standard types of architectural drawings including plans, elevation, sections and details. (Credit will not be awarded for both CAD 165 and DRF 165.) Lecture 2 hours. Laboratory 2 hours.
Teaches computer-aided drafting concepts and equipment designed to develop a general understanding of components of a typical CAD system and its operation. (Credit will not be awarded for both CAD 201 and DRF 201.) Lecture 3 hours. Laboratory 2 hours.
Teaches production drawings and advanced operations in computer-aided drafting. (Credit will not be awarded for both CAD 202 and DRF 202.)
Teaches use of drafting equipment and applications, emphasizing knowledge and skill required for industrial drawing. Includes piping, gearing, geometric and positional tolerances and 2D/3D drawing layout. (Credit will not be awarded for both CAD 211 and DRF 211.)
Teaches concepts of sheet metal fabrication including radii, fillets and tolerances, electrical and electronics symbols and drawing, and advanced design drafting techniques. (Credit will not be awarded for both CAD 212 and DRF 212.)
Focuses on training students in the contemporary techniques of 3-D modeling, rendering, and animation on the personal computer.Introduces the principles of visualization, sometimes known as photo-realism, which enables the student to create presentation drawings for both architectural and industrial product design. Uses computer animation to produce walk-throughs that will bring the third dimension to architectural designs. Part I of II. (Credit will not be awarded for both CAD 238 and DRF 238.) Lecture 2 hours. Laboratory 2 hours.
Focuses on teaching students the design of parts by parametric solid modeling. Topics covered will include, but not limited to, sketch profiles; geometric and dimensional constraints; 3-D features; model generation by extrusion, revolution and sweep; and the creation of 2-D drawing views that include sections, details and auxiliary. Part I of II. (Credit will not be awarded for both CAD 241 and DRF 241.) Lecture 2 hours. Laboratory 2 hours.
Focuses on design projects developed independently and in consultation with the Instructor. Topics covered but not limited to: parametric modeling, civil, mechanical piping, architectural applications, structural, electro-mechanical, 3-D solids, exploration of application software and the integration of CAD/CAM. (Credit will not be awarded for both CAD 280 and DRF 280.)
This course introduces Autodesk Fusion, solid modeling and parametric modeling techniques and concepts, starting with 2D sketching, constructing basic shapes, building intelligent solid models, multi-view drawings, assembly creation, product rendering, exporting for 3D printing, file sharing, file management.
