Ascent AutoCAD 2024 Fundamentals Learning Guide - 2 Book Set for CAD Design & Engineering | Mixed Units Tutorial for Beginners & Professionals | Perfect for Architecture, Construction & Mechanical Design Projects

ASCENT’s AutoCAD® 2024 learning guides are designed for those using AutoCAD® 2024 with a Windows operating system. These guides are not designed for the AutoCAD for Mac software.

AutoCAD 2024: Fundamentals is comprised of two learning guides – AutoCAD 2024: Essentials and AutoCAD 2024: Beyond the Basics. This 2-book set is a cost-effective option for users looking to learn fundamental AutoCAD skills.

AutoCAD 2024: Essentials covers the essential core topics for working with the AutoCAD software. The guide begins with learning the basic tools for creating and editing 2D drawings. It then continues to explore the tools used to annotate drawings by adding text, hatching, dimensions, and tables. More advanced tools, such as working with blocks and setting up layouts, are introduced to improve your efficiency with the software. Not every command or option is covered, because the intent is to show the essential tools and concepts, such as:

• Understanding the AutoCAD workspace and user interface
• Using basic drawing, editing, and viewing tools
• Organizing drawing objects on layers
• Using reusable symbols (blocks)
• Preparing a layout to be plotted
• Adding text, hatching, and dimensions

Prerequisites:

• Access to the 2024.0 version of the software, to ensure compatibility with this guide. Future software updates that are released by Autodesk may include changes that are not reflected in this guide. The practices and files included with this guide are not compatible with prior versions (e.g., 2023).
• A working knowledge of basic design/drafting procedures and terminology.
• A working knowledge of your operating system.
