Index

A thoroughly contemporary approach to teaching essential engineering graphics skills has made Fundamentals of Solid Modeling and Graphics Communication the leading textbook in introductory engineering graphics courses. The seventh edition continues to integrate design concepts and the use of 3D CAD modeling into its outstanding coverage of the basic visualization and sketching techniques that enable students to create and communicate graphic ideas effectively.
The primary goal of this text is to help the engineering and technology student learn the techniques and standard practices of technical graphics, so that design ideas can be adequately communicated and produced. 
As in past editions, the authors have included many examples of how graphics communication pertains to "real-world" engineering design, including current industry practices and breakthroughs.
Connect and SmartBook are available for the first time with this edition.
New and revised exercises and end-of-chapter problems also emphasize visualization, graphical and spatial problem solving through the use of interactive solid modeling, sketching and related documentation.
3-D solid modeling documentation and sketches. Solid modeling creation and editing techniques are presented with new learning activities, as well as discussions of standards and CAD data exchange. The 3-D solid modeling activities focus on the assembly, design, and function of products through the inclusion of new assembly modeling projects.
Outstanding pedagogy, including "Dream High Tech Job" boxes which introduce students to interesting careers and people in the fields of graphics, CAD, and design and also "Design in Industry" boxes which cover some aspect of design as practiced in industry.
Step-by-step illustrated drawing technique examples clearly demonstrate how to create graphics and solve problems.
Over 500 problems are included. Most end-of-chapter problems are parts or assemblies of modern devices and products.
