All design and construction (manufacturing) activities require conversion of ideas and concepts into drawings for their execution. Large part of this job is done through Orthographic Projection (which was covered in Part I of this course). However, most of the times, 2-D drawings are difficult to apprehend in the absence of a 3-dimensional representation of the same. A 3-D visualization adds clarity to the idea and makes the process of design to construction much simpler. There are several techniques available for visualizations.The two methods discussed here in this course are the most widely accepted ones.
