Introduction:

AutoCAD is one of the most widely used programs in the fields of design and engineering drawing. It enables engineers and technicians to create precise 2D and 3D drawings with a high level of professionalism.

This training program aims to equip participants with the practical skills necessary to effectively use AutoCAD in preparing technical drawings, with a focus on hands-on applications in engineering work environments.

Course Objectives:

By the end of the program, participants will be able to:

1. Understand the AutoCAD interface and basic operations.

2. Create and modify 2D engineering drawings.

3. Use drawing and editing commands professionally.

4. Organize layers and manage lines and dimensions.

5. Insert text, symbols, and prepare professional layouts and printing outputs.

6. Understand the basics of 3D modeling.

7. Apply acquired concepts in real-world engineering projects.

Training Topics:

1. Introduction to AutoCAD

   • Overview of the program, interface, and main tools.

   • Setting up the workspace and initial configurations.

2. 2D Drafting

   • Basic drawing commands (Line, Circle, Arc, Polygon…).

   • Editing commands (Move, Copy, Mirror, Trim, Extend…).

3. Drawing Organization

   • Managing layers, colors, and line types.

   • Using blocks and external references (Xrefs).

4. Adding Dimensions and Text

   • Setting up dimension styles and annotations.

   • Inserting text, titles, and notes.

5. Output and Printing

   • Setting up Layouts and Viewports.

   • Controlling scales and preparing print files (Plot).

6. Introduction to 3D Modeling
