AutoCAD 3d adavanced

Course details

This AutoCAD course provides delegates with a basic understanding of the fundamental concepts and workflows of how to design, create and modify 3D models (both solid and surface).

Creating 3D models helps users better visualize and present designs.  Delegates will learn how to output 3D models to either paper or as distributable, electronic versions. You will use visualisation tools such as visual styles, model walk and fly throws, materials, and lighting.   The concepts and practices taught will help delegates take their designs beyond 2D to the next dimension – 3D!

Course Objectives

At the end of this course, delegates will be able to:

• Work proficiently with 3D models
• Create solid primitives, solid or surface models from cross-sectional geometry, or composite models from multiple solid models,
• Complete a solid model design by adding the necessary features to detail
• Duplicate and position 3D models
• Convert 2D objects to 3D objects
• Document a 3D design by creating 2D drawings for production and visualization
• Communicate design ideas using visual styles, lights, model walk-through tools and renderings
