AUTOCAD 2021 3D MODELING by Munir M. Hamad

ABOUT THE BOOK
This book discusses the 3D environment and commands in AutoCAD 2021.
Many AutoCAD users do not know the real capabilities of AutoCAD in 3D,
leading them to use other software, such as 3ds MAX® or Maya®, to build
their 3D models, create lights, load materials, and assign materials, and
then create still rendered images and animation. This book aims to clear
up this misleading idea about AutoCAD and to introduce the real power of AutoCAD in 3D.
At the completion of this book, the reader will be able to:

•  Understand the AutoCAD 3D environment
•  Create 3D objects using solids
•  Create 3D objects using meshes
•  Create 3D objects using surfaces
•  Create complex solids and surfaces
•  Edit solids and use other general 3D modifying commands
•  Convert 3D objects from one type to another
•  Create 2D/3D sections from 3D solids
•  Use model documentation
•  Create 3D DWF files
•  Create cameras and lights
•  Assign material and create rendered images
•  Use and create visual styles
•  Create animation files
