Engineering Drawing is an essential subject for all engineering curricula at both degree and diploma level. This book will prove helpful to the practicing engineers as well. The enlarged seventh edition of Fundamentals of Engineering Drawing has been renamed as Computer-Aided Engineering Drawing. The fact that this book is now in its seventh edition explains its popularity and usefulness amongst the students of this field. Drawings in this edition have been prepared using AUTOCAD software and the standard rules as specified by the Bureau of Indian Standards in SP: 46-1988 have been adopted. This book explains the fundamentals and essentials of drawing in a concise and self-study format with information on dimensioning, material specifications, tolerance, surface finish and some functional and manufacturing aspects of design. This book includes essential fundamentals of Descriptive Geometry to promote imaginative power and develop better visualization of the orthographic projection amongst the beginners.
