Technical Communication

The objective of this teaching unit is to provide students with the tools necessary for technical communication in mechanics, with an emphasis on reading technical drawings, technical drawing (vocabulary, technical drawing rules, projections, intersections, cuts, sections, technological components, etc.) and the creation of virtual models using CAD software (Solidworks).

• read a technical plan of medium difficulty
• recognize standard mechanical components on a drawing
• identify how a moderately difficult mechanical system works based on an overall plan
• draw a part in multiple views following the rules of projection
• Identify and draw the intersections of cylinder-plane, cylinder-cylinder, plane-cone, and cylinder-cone.
• draw cross-sectional views and sections
• extract a part from a medium-difficulty assembly drawing
• use of the basic functions of Solidworks software (parts mode, assembly, and drafting)
