Graphical Communication 2 CIVL 2024

Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:

• Produce engineering drawings using computer-aided drafting software. [5]
• Annotate drawings with more advanced text and dimensions commands. [5]
• Apply layers, line types and colours to enhance the presentation/appearance of drawings. [7]
• Employ knowledge of AutoCAD and Revit Structures to solve engineering design problems and perform engineering modeling. [5]
• Use blocks, attributes and external references to manage drawing files, organize design processes and collaborate with others. [5, 7]
• Create 3D objects and models. [5]
• Use AutoCAD and Revit 3D models to generate plans, elevations, and sections. [5, 7]
• Generate data (e.g. bill of materials, schedule of quantities and material takeoff) from 2D drawings and 3D models. [5]
• Use scanned images to facilitate the design process through accurate manipulation of rasterized data. [5]
• Transfer and exchange data between various engineering software packages. [5]
