Basics of CADLaajuus (3 ECTS)

Objective

On completion of the course the student will understand the major rules governing scaled representation of an object and be familiar with computer applications used for modelling. The student will be able to utilize and create CAD models produced by other parties of a particular planning process.

The student will be able to draw up planes and cross sections according to instructions with the help of models and examples. The student will also be able to turn the CAD model into appropriate manufacturing documents.
