Synopsis

Howard and Musto's industry-leading text presents a tutorial-based introduction to solid modeling and the SOLIDWORKS software. Although the tutorials can be followed by anyone interested in learning the software, it is geared toward introductory engineering students or high school students interested in engineering. Accordingly, the examples and problems are based on the authors' experience with teaching engineering students.


This new edition is now available in Connect, which includes curated question banks that are assignable as high stakes assessment or unlimited practice problems. These auto-graded banks save faculty time while providing instant feedback to students. Instructors can edit these questions and/or add their own questions to these banks.
