Course Descriptions

Technical Drawing I

CCD101

Basic principles and skills of drafting as a graphic language; technical sketching and shape description emphasized, geometric construction, multiview projection, sectional views, auxiliary views and revolutions, threads and fasteners, descriptive geometry, dimensioning tolerancing, oblique projection, axonometric projection, and ANSI drawing standards. This course serves as a foundation for all other technical drafting courses. 3 Credits (2 Lecture - 3 Lab) Corequisite(s): CAD118 and CCD102. Fall Only.

Detailing I

CCD102

Additional basics such as producing detail drawings from sketches and/or parts, producing assembly and detail drawings, manufacturing processes theory, surface finish specifications using ANSI standards, introduction to geometric tolerances, acquiring and using vendor part catalogs. CAD software used to produce drawings. 3 Credits (0 Lecture - 9 Lab) Corequisite(s): CAD116 and CCD101 or CAD118 and CCD101. Fall Only.

Technical Drawing II

CCD121

Drafting applications as they apply to castings and forgings, welded parts, plastic parts, piping details, sheet metal developments, and intersections. Topics include the use of technical notes, specifications, and symbols within a drawing; cam and gearing terminology and definitions; and calculations and their use for producing cam drawings, gear drawings, various drives, and mechanisms. Technical sketching is emphasized. 3 Credits (2 Lecture - 3 Lab) Prerequisite(s): CCD101 and CCD102. Corequisite(s): CAD119 and CCD122. Spring Only.

Detailing II

CCD122

Study of the function, design, terminology, definition, and calculations used in the preparation of finished drawings from the sketches of sheet metal parts, welded parts, piping details and assemblies, cams, gears, drives, and mechanisms. CAD software used to produce drawings. 3 Credits (0 Lecture - 9 Lab) Prerequisite(s): CCD101 and CCD102. Corequisite(s): CAD119 and CCD121. Spring Only.

Design and Production Drawings

CCD235

Preparation of details, sub-assemblies, and assemblies from design layouts or engineering specifications and sketches. The design process, strength of materials, use of standard parts, advanced geometric dimensioning, and tolerancing specifications. Surface finishes are included. CAD software used to produce drawings. 3 Credits (1 Lecture - 6 Lab) Prerequisite(s): CAD126 and CCD122 or CAD119 and CCD122. Fall Only.

Civil and Structural Drawings

CCD236

Introduction to the preparation of civil and structural drawings. Students plot traverses from field notes, draw deed descriptions, prepare contour maps and profiles, and perform civil engineering calculations. Working from structural engineering drawings and data, students calculate and design connections and members, and prepare structural steel shop drawings. CAD software used to produce drawings. 3 Credits (1 Lecture - 6 Lab) Prerequisite(s): CAD126 and CCD101 and CCD102 or CAD119 and CCD101 and CCD102. Fall Only.

Tooling Design and Drawings

CCD243

Introduction to tool, fixture, gage, and die design and drafting. Materials, purchased parts, design principles, drafting techniques, fixtures and clamping devices, gages, gauging fixtures, design of dies for piercing, stamping and forming, and tooling for automated manufacturing area included. CAD software used to produce drawings. 3 Credits (1 Lecture - 6 Lab) Prerequisite(s): CAD126 and CCD121 and CCD122 or CAD119 and CCD121 and CCD122. Spring Only.

Electrical and Electronics Drawings

CCD244

Preparation of electrical and electronic drawings for electrical construction and electromechanical applications. Drawing standards and layout, terminology, symbols, schematics, wiring diagrams, block diagrams, printed circuit diagrams, industrial control, and residential electrical wiring drawings are included. CAD software used to produce drawings. 3 Credits (1 Lecture - 6 Lab) Prerequisite(s): CAD126 and CCD101 and CCD102 or CAD119 and CCD101 and CCD102. Spring Only.
