Overview
This AutoCAD course provides delegates with a basic understanding of the fundamental concepts and workflows of how to design, create and modify 3D models.
Creating 3D models helps users better visualize and present designs. Delegates will explore how to work with both solid and surface models as well as learning how to output 3D models from the CAD system to either paper or a distributable, electronic version. You will use visualisation tools such as visual styles, model walk and fly throws, materials, and lighting. The concepts and practices taught will help delegates take their designs beyond 2D to the next dimension – 3D!
Audience
Engineers, architects, draftsmen, designers, advertisers – anyone needing to create 3D models.
Course Objectives
At the end of this course, delegates will be able to:
- Work proficiently with 3D models
Prerequisites
Attendance of the Essential course (or equivalent knowledge) is required. Intermediate knowledge would be beneficial.
