A thoroughly contemporary approach to teaching essential concepts of solid modeling and engineering documentation has made Fundamentals of Solid Modeling and Graphics Communication the leading textbook in introductory engineering design and graphics courses. This textbook
integrates design concepts and the use of 3D CAD modeling into its outstanding coverage of the basic graphical techniques that enable students to create and communicate ideas effectively.
The primary goal of this text is to help the engineering and technology student learn the techniques and standard practices of creating 3D solid models and model-based information, so that design ideas can be adequately communicated and produced.
