A lot rides on your choice of technical drawing textbook: it could be the gateway leading students to a rewarding career or the foundation for an introductory class that fuels interest in a whole program. Technical Drawing 101 with AutoCAD 2025 is both. More than a traditional technical drawing textbook, it uniquely teaches both the theory and fundamentals of technical drawing and the basics of AutoCAD. It covers topics ranging from the most basic, such as making freehand, multi-view sketches of machine parts, to the advanced, such as creating an AutoCAD dimension style containing the style settings defined by the ASME Y14.5-2009 Dimensioning and Tolerancing standard. But unlike the massive technical drawing reference texts on the market, Technical Drawing 101 with AutoCAD presents just the right mix of information and projects for an introductory, one-semester course, including all the supporting materials needed by students and faculty.

The authors distilled all the knowledge and experience gleaned from designing a successful AutoCAD program into this textbook to deliver the best training possible to students. Step-by-step activities, exercises, and projects interest and challenge learners. Technical Drawing 101 with AutoCAD begins with technical and multi-view drawing basics. The CAD portion of the text incorporates drafting theory whenever possible and covers the basics of drawing setup (units, limits, and layers), the tools of the Draw, Modify, and Dimension toolbars, and the fundamentals of 3D modeling. By focusing on the fundamental building blocks of CAD, Technical Drawing 101 with AutoCAD provides a solid foundation for students going on to learn advanced CAD concepts and techniques (xrefs, annotative scaling, etc.) in intermediate CAD courses. The included mechanical and architectural projects as well as new chapters on civil drafting and electronic drafting allow students to explore these possible career paths with the perfect amount of background information and designing tasks.
