Modeling for Design Using Autocad Release 13 and Autosurf

This new book combines a successful step-by-step approach for learning the concepts of 3D solid modeling with specific instruction in how to use AutoCAD Release 13 and focusing on the Windows interface. AutoSurf coverage is also included to give users an overview of surface modeling concepts and procedures. Working with this book, users explore the use of AutoCAD and AutoSurf as true design tools rather than merely learning "button-pushing" routines. The book is appropriate for both beginning readers wanting a solid modeling approach to AutoCAD, and those wanting an advanced book for design project work. Bound in is an IBM PC 3-1/2" disk containing examples and primitives that give users a head start in completing the modeling projects contained in the book.
