"Engineering Drawing is a compulsory subject for all branches of engineering as it is the graphical language of engineers. In Computer Aided Engineering Drawing, the author draws upon his vast experience of teaching and presents a student friendly step-by-step demonstrative approach, similar to that of classroom teaching. Key Features: • Use of updated B.I.S. conventions. • Incorporates standard assumptions in case of incomplete data by framing special problems. • Introduces various softwares for computer-aided engineering darwings. • Includes solved problems using different methods. • A concise summary at the end of each chapter for quick revision. • Includes solutions to difficult problems using 3-D diagrams. • Examination problems of VTU and other universities have been included in the exercise section for practice. Hints have been given to solve the problems where necessary. • The complete book has been written with classroom teaching approach."
