Concept-based AutoCAD
Concept-based AutoCAD
Description
Book Introduction
CAD is used for design and manufacturing in various industrial fields such as machinery, architecture, and electricity, and now 3D CAD is being introduced and used in quite a few places, but when visiting industrial sites or giving lectures to companies, I can see that the number of users utilizing AutoCAD is not decreasing but increasing every year.
AutoCAD is used to create and modify 2D drawings in various industries, and its utility and purpose vary depending on the job.
While some users utilize AutoCAD for simple drawing editing or printing, many others utilize it for basic design stages, including creating layouts and concepts and detailed designs.


In order to master AutoCAD, which is so versatile, many people are learning through books published on the market, YouTube, offline lectures, etc. However, in this flood of information, I was wondering how I could guide them to learn AutoCAD easily and quickly, and that is why I published this book.
