Description

This book is your AutoCAD 2017 Instructor. The objective of this book is to offers you extensive knowledge of AutoCAD, whether you’re taking an instructor-led course or learning by yourself. AutoCAD 2017 Instructor maintains the pedagogy and in-depth coverage that have all the time been the hallmark of the Leach texts. As the top-selling university textbook for nearly a decade, the AutoCAD Instructor series continues to deliver broad coverage of AutoCAD in a structured, easy-to-comprehend manner. AutoCAD 2017 Instructor is command-oriented, just like AutoCAD. Chapters are structured around related commands, very similar to the organization of AutoCAD s menu system.

The sequence of chapters starts with fundamental drawing commands and skills and then progresses to more elaborate procedures and specialized applications. The writing style introduces small pieces of information explained in simple form, and then builds on that knowledge to deliver more complex drawing strategies, requiring a synthesis of earlier concepts. Over 2000 figures illustrate the commands, features, and ideas.

AutoCAD 2017 Instructor is a perfect reference guide, unlike tutorial-oriented books where specific information is hard to relocate. Because these chapters focal point on related commands, and complete coverage for every command is given in one place, the commands, procedures, and applications are easy to reference. Tabbed pages help locate tables, lists, appendices, and the comprehensive index.
