Course description
AudoCAD 3D Training Course - 2 day Autodesk Authorised Training Course
This 2 day AutoCAD 3D training course explores the fundamental concepts and workflows for creating 3D models using AutoCAD, making use of hands-on exercises representing real-world scenarios to provide a thorough grounding in 3D fundamentals.
On completion of this course, delegates will be able to:
- Represent a design by creating solid primitives, solid or surface models from cross-sectional geometry, or composite models from multiple solid materials
- Complete a solid model design by adding the necessary features to detail, duplicate and position 3D models
- Convert 2D objects to 3D objects
- Document a 3D design by creating 2D drawings for production and visualisation
- Communicate design ideas using visual styles, lights, model walk-through tools and renderings
This is an Autodesk-authorised course, run by an Autodesk Certified Instructor (ACI). Delegates receive Autodesk Official Training Courseware, the most comprehensive AutoCAD training materials available.
