AutoCAD Basics will introduce you to the fundamentals of using AutoCAD. You will start at the very beginning by creating drafting symbols, kitchen and bath fixtures, and a floor plan, bringing everything together on a deliverable printed sheet. You will also create an abbreviated set of construction documents, such as a floor plan, roof plan, structural foundation plan, electrical plan, and building elevations. During this online course, you will learn about paper/model space and create deliverable sheet files. If you need to get an introduction to AutoCAD, this course for beginners will get you up — and running. This class is hands-on, real-world applicable, and includes optional projects. No prerequisite.
