Editor's review

Engineering Drawing (2nd Edition), published by Chongqing University Press and edited by Zhang Lingling, is a foundational textbook for engineering programs at colleges and universities. The book systematically explains the basic principles of engineering drawing, national standard specifications, and the fundamentals of modern computer-aided drawing. Its content covers the projection laws of points, lines, planes, and solids, views of composite solids, methods of representing machine parts, standard and commonly used parts, part drawings and assembly drawings, and other core modules. Building on the clear logic and practical style of the first edition, the second edition has been revised and updated in light of engineering practice and teaching feedback, strengthening alignment with the latest national standards and appropriately introducing concepts related to digital drawing technologies such as CAD, thereby integrating classical theory with modern technology.

As a typical introductory engineering guide, its value lies in building a solid framework for graphical expression thinking. Engineering drawings are the language of engineers. Through numerous examples and exercises that progress from elementary to advanced, the book focuses on training readers' spatial imagination and rigorous awareness of standards. It does not pursue showy software操作 but returns to the essential understanding of "why it is drawn this way," which is crucial for building a solid professional foundation. The editor believes that for beginners, the book's step-by-step approach is a major advantage; for practitioners who need to refresh their knowledge, it is also a reliable desk reference. However, it should be noted that the book is positioned as a foundational disciplinary textbook, with its depth concentrated on traditional descriptive geometry and drawing standards; readers seeking specialized discussion of advanced 3D modeling, in-depth standards for specific industries, or the latest intelligent design software will need to read further.

Who it's for

A good fit for

  • Lower-division undergraduates in engineering programs such as mechanical, civil, and aerospace engineering at colleges and universities
  • Working technical personnel who need to systematically study or review national standards and fundamentals of engineering drawing
  • Exam candidates preparing for engineering professional qualification examinations who need to review foundational drawing content
  • Self-learners interested in graphical engineering expression who wish to develop spatial logical thinking

Not a good fit for

  • Readers seeking detailed operation tutorials for advanced 3D modeling software (such as SolidWorks, CATIA)
  • Senior engineers who need to study highly specialized drawing standards for a particular industry (such as architecture or electrical engineering) in depth

Reading tips

  1. It is recommended to study the chapters in order, and to complete the exercises in the book by hand, combining projection theory with spatial imagination.
  2. Keep drawing tools at hand while reading, and try drawing from physical objects or simple models to deepen understanding.
  3. Consult the latest national standards for technical drawing (GB/T) for further reading and to learn about updates to specifications.

About the author

张聆玲 Author

Zhang Lingling: publicly available information is limited. She is known in this library for two works, both centered on the teaching of engineering drawing: Engineering Drawing (2nd Edition) and the companion Engineering Drawing Exercise Book. Judging from the titles and their usual classification, her writing falls in the fields of industrial technology and examination materials, aimed at the needs of engineering drawing courses in engineering colleges and balancing theoretical explanation with practice. The second edition indicates a revised textbook, while the exercise book is designed to be used alongside the main text so that readers can practice as they learn and check their grasp of the material. The available information is not sufficient to describe her education, positions, or professional experience, so a biographical account would not be appropriate. Overall, she is known for compiling textbooks and study aids for classroom and self-study use, and her works have a practical role in basic engineering drawing instruction.

唐克岩 Author

Tang Keyan is a book author about whom limited public information is available; details such as nationality, dates of birth and death, and English name cannot currently be confirmed. Judging from the works held in the database, he co-authored two titles, Engineering Drawing (2nd Edition) and an accompanying workbook of engineering drawing exercises, both within the field of engineering drawing instruction and commonly classified under industrial technology and examinations. One is a textbook and the other a companion exercise book, and the two are structurally linked, reflecting an approach that gives equal weight to classroom teaching and after-class practice and primarily serves the teaching needs of related courses in engineering colleges. Because public materials are limited, his personal history, institutional affiliation, and academic background cannot be verified at present; readers may gain a sense of his editorial style and emphasis from the textbook text and the exercise arrangements.

郑才国 Author

Zheng Caiguo is one of the authors included in this Chinese book database. Public information about him is limited: details such as his birthplace, education, and professional positions are not recorded. Two of his works are currently available in the database: Engineering Drawing (2nd Edition) and an accompanying Engineering Drawing Exercise Book, both within the field of engineering drawing instruction. Judging from the titles and classifications, his writing centers on industrial technology and exam preparation, emphasizing basic drafting standards, drawing representation, and practice exercises. The textbook and exercise book are designed to be used together, allowing readers to learn while practicing. Such works typically serve engineering students at higher education institutions and candidates preparing for related professional qualification exams, and are clearly intended as teaching aids. Owing to limited source material, a full assessment of his writing style and academic influence is difficult; readers may gain a better understanding through the specific contents of the two books mentioned above.

雷永锋 Author

Lei Yongfeng is an author about whom limited public information is available, and what can be confirmed comes mainly from two books. According to the library's holdings, he contributed to Introduction to Electrical Engineering (2nd Edition) and Engineering Drawing (2nd Edition). Both appear as second editions, indicating that the content has been revised and updated and is suitable for use as textbooks or teaching references. The works are classified under examinations and industrial technology, focusing on electrical engineering and engineering drawing: the former covers basic concepts and the knowledge framework of electrical engineering, while the latter emphasizes the drawing and reading of engineering graphics, both being foundational subjects in engineering education. The available material is not sufficient for a detailed discussion of writing style, but the books' positioning suggests clear, classroom-oriented textbook writing. Since information about the author's life, education, and positions has not appeared in public sources, no speculation is made here; this introduction is based solely on the works themselves.

宋黎 Author

Song Li is an author about whom limited public information is available. Only one work by this author is currently included in the collection, Engineering Drawing (2nd Edition), which is classified under industrial technology. This work suggests that Song Li writes in the basic technical field of engineering drawing, covering drafting standards, graphic representation methods, and engineering expression, and is intended for engineering education or related technical study. Because public information on the author's life, professional background, and writing career is lacking, no further details can be given about education, positions, or research focus. Judgments about writing style and influence must therefore remain limited to the existing work, which appears to present drafting knowledge systematically and practically in the form of a textbook or technical reader.
