This book is the most comprehensive book you will find on AutoCAD 2022 – 2D Drafting. Covering all of the 2D concepts, it uses both metric and imperial units to illustrate the myriad drawing and editing tools for this popular application. Use the companion disc to set up drawing exercises and projects and see all of the book's figures in color. AutoCAD 2022 Beginning and Intermediate includes over 100 exercises or "mini-workshops," that complete small projects from concept through actual plotting. Solving all of the workshops will simulate the creation of three projects (architectural and mechanical) from beginning to end, without overlooking any of the basic commands and functions in AutoCAD 2022.

About the book:
This is the most comprehensive book about AutoCAD 2022 – 2D drafting on the market. It is divided into three major parts:

Essentials: from Chapter one to Chapter ten. It assumes that the reader has no previous experience in AutoCAD; hence it starts from scratch. Chapter ten contains three projects – one architectural, and two mechan- ical using both Imperial and metric units.
Intermediate: from Chapter 11 to Chapter 18. It contains a deeper discussion on a subject we touched on in the Essentials part, or a new advance feature.
Advanced: from Chapter 19 to Chapter 26. It discusses the most advanced features of AutoCAD 2022.

If you don't have any prior experience in AutoCAD this book is a perfect start, and you can stop at the end of any part. But if you want to be a real power user of Auto- CAD, you should go through all the 26 chapters, solving all projects and practices.
This book is also a good source to prepare for the AutoCAD Certified Professional exam.
