EDD 240 - Mechanical Drafting Credits: 4 5 Skills Lab Hours
Prerequisites: EDD 121
Description This is an advanced course in the application of engineering drawing principles to mechanical engineering technology. Emphasized are the preparation of working drawings, including such items as assembly drawings, detail drawings, fasteners, gears and cams. Additional topics are presented based on specific drawing applications assigned. Learning Outcomes Upon successful completion of the course, the student will:
- Describe the concept of a sectional view.
- Identify the seven types of sectional views.
- Draw full, half, broken-out, revolved, removed, offset, aligned, thin wall and assembly sections.
