A discussion of hand-drafting with geometric exercises for various difficulty levels, covering working drawings, tools and conventions used in the trade, pattern-workshop drawings, penetrations, and more, with illustrations and a glossary.

About the Book: Written by three distinguished authors with ample academic and teaching experience, this textbook, meant for diploma and degree students of Mechanical Engineering as well as those preparing for AMIE examination, incorporates the latest st

This richly illustrated textbook, now in its Second Edition, continues to provide a solid fundamental treatment of the essential concepts of machine drawing. The book is suitable for students pursuing courses in mechanical engineering (and its related branches) both at the undergraduate degree and diploma levels. The students are first introduced to the standards and conventions of basic engineering drawing. The machine elements such as fasteners, bearings, couplings, shafts and pulleys, pipes and pipe joints are discussed in depth before moving on to detailed drawings of components of steam engines, IC engines, boilers, and machine tools. Gears are covered in a separate chapter. Finally, the book introduces the students to the principles of computer-aided drafting and designing (CADD) to prepare them to use software tools effectively for the production of computerised accurate drawings. This Second Edition includes three new chapters, namely Fits and Tolerances, Assembly Drawings, and Freehand Sketching, anda revamped chapter on Gears. Besides,all the earlier chapters have been revised and enlarged with numerous new topics and worked-out examples. Key Features Provides first and third angle projections Follows the standards set by the Bureau of Indian Standards as per IS:696–1972/SP:46–1988 Contains multiple-choice questions and practice exercises

This volume presents a solid fundamental treatment of engineering graphics, geometry and modeling suitable for engineers and technologists. It reflects the most modern drafting procedures from the fundamentals (for the beginner), to techniques and practices of drawing in specialized fields.This book is an Engineering Drawing Book, named Fundamentals of Engineering Drawing- Scales where author has given complete detail about the topic that is not easily found in general books. Author believes that chapters should have completness of information which in most cases is compromised to procuse a light weight and affordable book by publishing and book should be written seperately with lucid and easy to learn content. Also complete Engineering Drawing book will have arount 20 chapters and area specific syllabus is limite to only 6 -12 chapters out of 20 chapters that means it is a waste of money buying a book with loads of content that is not useful. Also Youtube video lecture of this book is available for free for the buyers of the book.This volume presents a solid fundamental treatment of engineering graphics, geometry and modeling suitable for engineers and technologists.

The Manual of Engineering Drawing has long been recognised as the student and practising engineer's guide to producing engineering drawings that comply with ISO and British Standards. The information in this book is equally applicable to any CAD application or manual drawing. The second edition is fully in line with the requirements of the new British Standard BS8888: 2002, and will help engineers, lecturers and students with the transition to the new standards.BS8888 is fully based on the relevant ISO standards, so this book is also ideal for an international readership. The comprehensive scope of this book encompasses topics including orthographic, isometric and oblique projections, electric and hydraulic diagrams, welding and adhesive symbols, and guidance on tolerancing.Written by a member of the ISO committee and a former college lecturer, the Manual of Engineering Drawing combines up-to-the-minute technical accuracy with clear, readable explanations and numerous diagrams. This approach makes this an ideal student text for vocational courses in engineering drawing and undergraduates studying engineering design / product design.Colin Simmons is a member of the BSI and ISO Draughting Committees and an Engineering Standards Consultant.
