A d v e r t i s e m e n t

Module-1 Introduction to Computer Aided Sketching 0 hours

Introduction to Computer Aided Sketching:

Introduction, Drawing Instruments and their uses, relevant BIS conventions and standards. Lettering, line conventions, dimensioning, material conventions, and free hand practicing. Computer screen, layout of the software, standard tool bar I menu and description of most commonly used tool bars, and navigational tools. Co-ordinate system and reference planes HP, VP, RPP & LPP of 2D/3D environment. Selection of drawing sheet size and scale. Commands and creation of Lines, coordinate points, axes, poly-lines, square, rectangle, polygons, splines, circles, ellipse, text, move, copy, off-set, mirror, rotate, trim, extend, break, chamfer, fillet, curves, constraints viz., tangency, parallelism, inclination and perpendicularity.

Module-2 Orthographic projections of points, straight lines and planes 0 hours

Introduction, Definitions-Planes of projection, reference line and conventions employed. First angle and Third angle projection. Projections of points in all the four quadrants.

Projections of straight lines (located in first quadrant/ftrst angle only), true and apparent lengths, true and apparent inclinations to reference planes (No application problems and midpoint problems). Orthographic projections of plane surfaces (First angle projection only): Projections of regular plane surfaces-triangle, square, rectangle, pentagon, hexagon and circle-in simple positions inclined to both the planes; planes in different positions by change of position method only. (No problems on punched plates and composite plates).

Module-3 Projections of solids 0 hours

Introduction, definitions -projections of right regular tetrahedron, hexahedron (cube), prisms, pyramids, and cones with axis inclined to both the planes. (Solids resting on HP only and no problems on octahedrons, and freely suspended solids.)

Module-4 Development ofLateral Surfaces of Solids 0 hours

Introduction to section planes and sectional views.

Development of lateral surfaces of right regular prisms, cylinders, pyramids, and cones resting with base on HP only. Development of their frustums and truncations. (No problems on lateral surfaces of trays, tetrahedrons, spheres and transition pieces).

Module-5 Isometric Projection (using isometric scale only) 0 hours

Introduction, Isometric scale, Isometric projection of simple plane ftgures, Isometric projection of hexahedron(cube), right regular prisms, pyramids, cylinders, cones, and spheres. Isometric projection of combination of two simple solids. Conversion of given isometric/ pictorial views to orthographic views of simple objects

Course Outcomes:

Upon completion of this course, students will be able to

  1. COl Prepare engineering drawings as per BIS conventions mentioned in the relevant codes.
  2. COl Produce computer generated drawings using CAD software.
  3. COJ Use the knowledge of orthographic projections to represent engineering information I concepts and present the same in the form of drawings.
  4. C04 Develop isometric drawings of simple objects reading the orthographic projections of those objects.
  5. COS Convert pictorial and isometric views of simple objects to orthographic views.

Question paperpattem:

  • Module -1 is only for practice and CIE and not for examination.  
  • Question paper for each batch of students will be sent online by VTIJ and has to be downloaded before the commencement of Examination of each batch. The answer sheets will have to be jointly evaluated by the Internal & External examiners.
  • A maximum of THREE questions will be set as per the following pattern (No mixing of questions from different Modules).
