  • For courses in Pro/ENGINEER—
  • Computer-Aided Drawing.

Originating from an introductory engineering graphics and computer aided design (CAD) course, this text uses examples from different areas in the engineering sciences. Through the use of tutorials, exercises, and examples, the author shows students how to communicate design ideas graphically. Updated to be compatible with the latest Pro/ENGINEER 2001 release.

  • NEW - Based on latest release of Pro/ENGINEER 2001—Discusses the options available in Pro/ENGINEER 2001, which is the latest version of Pro/Engineer.

    • Exposes students to the latest Pro/ENGINEER software interface so they acquire knowledge of the current state of the software.

  • NEW - All new high-resolution screen captures—Increase the visual learning aspects of the text.

    • Allows students to more easily grasp the intent of the software and the tutorials.

  • NEW - New approach in describing the use of datum planes—Helps tie engineering graphics with model construction. By sketching the cross-section of a feature on a datum plane, the user is able to create a solid model using Pro/ENGINEER.

    • Stresses how the selection of the proper datum plane is related to the cross-section of the feature and the construction of the model.

  • Tutorials for the various Pro/E options.

    • Serves as examples for students to work.

  • Listing of the steps for each option—At chapter end.

    • Enables students to use the sequence of steps as a reference.

  • Additional exercises—May be assigned as homework.

    • Further emphasizes the option or technique in the chapter.

  • Many of the subprojects used in the tutorials are actually part of larger projects.

    • Facilitates the completion of projects that might be otherwise overwhelming.

  • Based on latest release of Pro/ENGINEER 2001—Discusses the options available in Pro/ENGINEER 2001, which is the latest version of Pro/Engineer.

    • Exposes students to the latest Pro/ENGINEER software interface so they acquire knowledge of the current state of the software.
