Product Description
Unlike many AutoCAD competitors, this book covers only the basics and uses mixed units inches, meters, feet, kilometers, etc., to illustrate the myriad drawing and editing tools for this popular application. AutoCAD 2008 Essentials includes 21 workshops, that complete small projects from concept through actual plotting. Solving all of the workshops will simulate the creation of a real life project from beginning to end, without overlooking any of the basic commands and functions in AutoCAD 2008.
Customer Reviews & Comments This is a basic instruction book for anyone beginning Autocad. I had some background knowledge of Autocad from a class taken over ten years ago and had forgotten most of the commands. This book walks the reader through step-by-step for various commands and shows various ways to initiate the command (icon, drop down menu, command line) to make Autocad more user friendly to the reader's personal computer styles. I recommend this book for those in the civil engineering field. There are some steps that were not covered in this book that are probably considered intermediate drafting techniques, like inserting maps to scale.
