Description

This book is intended to help new users learn the basic concepts of SOLIDWORKS and good solid modeling techniques in an easy to follow guide that includes video instruction. This can be a great starting point for those new to SOLIDWORKS or as a teaching aid in classroom training to transform familiar with the software s interface, basic commands and strategies as users complete a series of models whilst learning different ways to accomplish a particular task.

At the end of this book, you are going to have a rather good understanding of the SOLIDWORKS interface and the most commonly used commands for part modeling, assembly and detailing after completing a series of components and their 2D drawings complete with Bill of Materials.

The book makes a speciality of the processes to complete the modeling of a part, instead of focusing on individual software commands or operations, which are generally simple enough to learn.

The creator strived hard to include the commands required in the Certified SOLIDWORKS Associate and Certified SOLIDWORKS Professional Exams as listed on the SOLIDWORKS website.

SOLIDWORKS is an easy to use CAD software that includes many time saving tools that will enable new and experienced users to complete design tasks faster than before. Most commands covered in this book have advanced options, which may not be covered in this book. This is meant to be a place to begin to help new users to learn the basic and most regularly used commands.

Includes Video Instruction

Each copy of this book includes access to video instruction. In these videos the creator provides a visual presentation of tutorials found in the book. The videos fortify the steps described in the book by allowing you to watch the exact steps the creator uses to complete the exercises.
