Engineering Graphics Tools for the Mind is a comprehensive set of engineering graphics tools that combines hand sketching, video presentations, and a digital engineering graphics reference book into a single textbook package. All of the video presentations and the digital reference book are available as a download by redeeming the access code found on the inside front cover of this book. Engineering Graphics Tools for the Mind is broken up into eight sections. Each section starts with an explanation of the topic and is followed by hand sketching exercises for you to complete. All 76 sketching exercises found in the textbook are printed on perforated paper making it easy for you to tear out and to turn in for review.

Engineering Graphics with AutoCAD 2013 teaches technical drawing using AutoCAD 2013 as its drawing instrument, complying with ANSI standards. Taking a step-by-step approach, it encourages you to work at your own pace and uses sample problems and illustrations to guide you through the powerful features of this drawing program. Nearly 150 exercise problems provide an opportunity to develop your creativity and problem-solving capabilities.

Engineering Graphics Essentials gives students a basic understanding of how to create and read engineering drawings by presenting principles in a logical and easy to understand manner. It covers the main topics of engineering graphics, including tolerancing and fasteners. This textbook also includes independent learning material containing supplemental content to further reinforce these principles. This textbook makes use of a large variety of exercise types that are designed to give students a superior understanding of engineering graphics and encourages greater interaction during lectures. The independent learning material allows students to explore the topics in the book on their own and at their own pace. The main content of the independent learning material contains pages that summarize the topics covered in the book. Each page has audio recordings that simulate a lecture environment. Interactive exercises are included and allow students to go through the instructor-led and in-class student exercises found in the book on their own. Also included are videos that walk students through examples and show them exactly how and why each step is performed.

SOLIDWORKS 2020 and Engineering Graphics: An Integrated Approach combines an introduction to SOLIDWORKS 2020 with a comprehensive coverage of engineering graphics principles. Not only will this unified approach give your course a smoother flow, your students will also save money on their textbooks. What’s more, the exercises in this book cover the performance tasks that are included on the Certified SOLIDWORKS Associate (CSWA) Examination. Reference guides located at the front of the book and in each chapter show where these performance tasks are covered. The primary goal of SOLIDWORKS 2020 and Engineering Graphics: An Integrated Approach is to introduce the aspects of Engineering Graphics with the use of modern 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 sixteen chapters, with detailed step-by-step tutorial style lessons, designed to introduce beginning CAD users to the graphics 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.
