About this title

Synopsis

Master practical drawing and machine design with a proven, hands-on approach.

This classic text teaches how descriptive geometry and projection apply to real machines, focusing on form, proportion, and function.

The book presents a complete approach to mechanical drawing for students and practitioners. It shows the best American practices in design and construction, using rules and formulas to solve practical problems. You’ll also find drafting-room methods, conventions, and the preparation needed to read, draw, and reason about machines and their details.

Step-by-step guidance on mechanical drawing, projection, and standard conventions.
Problems that teach the calculation of proportions and dimensions for strong, efficient parts.
Illustrations and examples drawn from modern machine construction to connect theory with practice.
Exercises and course planning notes to support classroom and self-study.

Ideal for readers studying mechanical drawing, machine design, or engineering technology, and for professionals needing a solid reference on traditional drafting and design methods.
