DFT 106 - Mechanical Drafting and Design


5 Credits
In this course you will learn to create mechanical drawings that are used to communicate the design of engineered products. We will create mechanical drawings from 3D models that fully define, or deliver all the necessary information, of the product to be manufactured. We will also learn fundamentals of mechanical design, manufacturing, and measurement.

Course Outcomes
  1. Implement commonly used symbols, elements, and standards in mechanical drawings.
  2. Evaluate mechanical drawings in accordance with ASME standards.
  3. Create a set of mechanical drawings for an assembly according to ASME standards using 2D and 3D source data.
  4. Outline how machine elements and manufacturing processes are used in design implementation.
  5. Name and organize engineering documentation files on local and cloud servers using common industry practices.
