SOLIDWORKS 2020 and Engineering Graphics

I Preface

The prunary goal of SOLIDWORKS 2020 and Engineering Graphics: An Integrated Approach is to introduce Engineering Graphics with the use of a 1nodem Computer Aided Design package - SOLIDWORKS 2020. This text is intended to be used as a training guide for students and professionals. The chapters in this text proceed in a pedagogical fashion to guide you from constructing basic shapes to making complete sets of engineering drawings. This text takes a hands-on, exercise-intensive approach to all the important concepts of Engineering Graphics, as well as in-depth discussions of parametric feature-based CAD techniques. This textbook contains a series of fifteen chapters with detailed step-by-step tutorial style lessons, designed to introduce beginning CAD users to the graphic language used in all branches of technical industry. This book does not attempt to cover all of SOLIDWORKS 2020's features, only to provide an introduction to the software. It is intended to help you establish a good basis for exploring and growing in the exciting field of Computer Aided Engineering.

This book would not have been possible without a great deal of support. First, special thanks to two great teachers, Prof. George R . Schade of University of Nebraska-Lincoln and Mr. Denwu Lee, who taught rue the fundamentals, the intrigue and the sheer fun of Computer Aided Engineering. The effort and support of the editorial and production staff of SDC Publications is gratefully acknowledged . I would especially like to thank Stephen Schroff for the support and helpful suggestions during this project. I am grateful that the Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering Technology Department of Oregon Institute of Technology has provided me with an excellent environment in which to pursue my interests in teaching and research. I would especially like to thank Emeritus Professor Charles Hermach and Professor Brian Moravec for the helpful com1nents and encourage1nent. Finally, truly unbounded thanks are due to my wife Hsiu-Ling and our daughter Casandra for their understanding and encouragement throughout this proj ect.

Certified SOLIDWORKS Associate Exam ination Overview

xv

Certified SOLIDWORKS Associate Exam Overview The Certified SOLIDWORKS Associate (CSWA) Exam is a performance-based exam. The examination is comprised of 10 - 20 questions to be completed in three hours. The test items will require you to use the SOLIDWORKS software to perform specific tasks and then answer questions about the tasks. Performance-based testing is defined as Testing by Doing . This means you actually perform the given task then answer the questions regarding the task. Performance-based testing is widely accepted as a better way of ensuring the user has the skills needed, rather than just recalling information. The CSW A examination is designed to test specific performance tasks in the following areas: C')

A part is a single three-dimensional (3D) solid model. Parts are the basic building blocks in modeling with SOLID WORKS. An assembly is a 3D arrangement of parts (components) and/or other assemblies (subassemblies). A drawing is a 2D representation of a part or an assembly. ►
