'Modelling with AutoCAD' takes the CAD user familiar with 2D work on to the more stimulating challenges of 3D modelling. It begins with an introduction to wire frame models and uses this as the basis for progressing on to surface models and then solid models. It also explains the concepts of multiple viewports and model and paper space. Fully up-to-date and designed for Release 13 for Windows this highly interactive learning resource will be invaluable to students on a range of further and higher education CAD courses, and professionals working in industry will also find it a valuable reference text.
