MG1028 Introductory 3D CAD 1.5 credits

Three 45-minutes  introductory lectures, each of them immediately followed by a three-hour CAD exercise.

One homework assignment, where the student applies knowledge and skills acquired during CAD exercises on a model of an assigned product, and displays and explains this model at a computer session with the responsible teachers.

• System introduction and basic part modelling in a modern 3D CAD system
• More part modelling and assembly modelling
• Documentation: How to create part and assembly drawings
• Individual work with the homework assignment outside scheduled classes

After passing the course, the student should be able to:

• independently and in a structured manner create:
  - parameterised solid models of 3D parts
  - assembly models containing part models
  - mechanism models and animations
  - simple drawings of parts with dimensioned orthographic, detail and section views
  - assembly drawings with parts lists and exploded views
  in a modern CAD system

The CAD programme used is available in all general computer labs at KTH campus, but can also be dowloaded for Windows computers from KTH software download site

Course material in Introductory CAD, Lasse Wingård & Per Johansson, (pdf documents can be dowloaded from the LMS by registered course participants).

If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.

• INL1 - Laboratory and Homework Assignment, 1.5 credits, grading scale: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F

Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.

The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.

The  CAD exercises and the homework assignment must be presented to a teacher at the computer. A higher grade can be achieved through an extended homework assignment.

• All members of a group are responsible for the group's work.
• In any assessment, every student shall honestly disclose any help received and sources used.
• In an oral assessment, every student shall be able to present and answer questions about the entire assignment and solution.
