FIFTH EDITION
Modern Graphics Communication
Engineers, technicians, and designers need to master a variety of graphical communication techniques, from sketching concepts, like these backpack designs, to creating detailed three-dimensional models suitable for analysis of design features. (Courtesy of Andr Cotan.)
About this Book
Modern Graphics Communication presents practices and techniques of sketching, visualization, design, and CAD that are important to todays graphics curriculum. Based on the long-standing authoritative text on the subject, Gieseckes Technical Drawing, this text preserves the time-tested graphics techniques that remain fundamental to the class, as it expands on the role that the 3D CAD database plays in design and documentation.
The topics of sketching and visualization skills are this books primary focus and provide a solid conceptual basis for the CAD instruction most graphics students receive. This edition also illustrates the application of both 3D and 2D modeling and technical drawing skills to real-world situations, and includes several in-depth case studies that link chapter content to industry practice. Each chapter lays a conceptual foundation that anchors the detailed sections on technique that follow. A wealth of step-by-step illustrated guides, tear-out worksheets, and end-of-chapter exercises help students visualize, practice, and retain those key concepts and techniques. Students who complete Modern Graphics Communication will leave with a full repertoire of skillsplus a lasting reference bookthat they will find invaluable both in education and industry.
