In this advanced drafting course, students reinforce their knowledge of engineering drawing and its applications. This course includes the theories of all types of section, detail and assembly, welding, and development drawings. Surface texture, geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T), and threaded and miscellaneous fasteners are also discussed in depth.

The grade will be determined using the Delaware Tech grading system:
| 90 | – | 100 | = | A |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 80 | – | 89 | = | B |
| 70 | – | 79 | = | C |
| 0 | – | 69 | = | F |
