Objectivesof theCourse: This course involves an introductory experience in technical drawing as a tool of
technical communication. Primary emphases are on development of basic drafting skills, visualization and solving
graphical problems. The objective of the course is to teach students the tools and techniques for making
engineering drawings. By the end of the course, students should gain the practical knowledge of civil engineering
design drawing ability as well as comprehending architectural, electrical and mechanical drawings. The scope of
the course is in two parts, which part 1 involves introduction to basics of technical drawing skills for drawing basic
geometric shapes and graphical projection techniques (Perspective and Parallel projection- Isometric and
Orthographic drawings). In the second part of the course students are taught to use their gained skills in part 1 and
interpret them for drawing advanced civil engineering design project.
