Code 15791
Year 1
Semester S1
ECTS Credits 6
Workload T(15H)/TP(45H)
Scientific area Drawing
Entry requirements There is no informal pre-requisites.
Learning outcomes To enable students to implement the knowledge of the Technical Drawing through a Computer Aided Design (CAD) computer application.
After attending this course, students should:
- Have grasped the fundamental concepts of Technical Design;
- To be able to read and interpret a technical drawing correctly;
- To be prepared to carry out the drawings and drawings necessary for the design of new products and equipment.
Syllabus The Technical Drawing:
- Graphic Communication;
- Modes of representation;
- The Technical Drawing in the various phases of a project.
Computer Aided Technical Drawing (CAD):
- Evolution of CAD - applications;
- Equipment.
Orthogonal projections
a) Concepts:
- Classification;
- Orthogonal projections: projections of the cube views (multiple views);
- Types of lines.
b) Selection of views:
- Necessary and sufficient views ;
- Views: partial, interrupted and auxiliaries;
- Representations: conventional and simplified.
c) Reading Projections.
Quick perspectives of geométric solids:
- Choice of position;
- Methods of construction;
- Perspective of a circle.
Dimensioning
- Dimensioning of special representations:
- Fundamental Aspects;
- Tolerances.
Cuts and Sections
Specific features of the software (SolidWorks):
- Modelling of solids and surfaces;
- Assembly of sets;
- Representation of projections.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria The assessment includes the application of a test. The works to which 6 points are attributed, consist of a series of parts and assemblies that are proposed to the students. The final test, of 14 points, consists of a SOLIDWORKS assembly based on a set of 5 or 6 parts that must also be performed in 3D by the students from given orthogonal views.
Language Portuguese. Tutorial support is available in English.
