FOUNDATION TRAINING
SolidWorks Foundation Training is exclusive
to Solidtec Solutions and incorporates the
SolidWorks Essentials and SolidWorks
Drawings courses to maximise effectiveness.
Foundation Training teaches you how to use
SolidWorks mechanical design software
to build parametric models of parts and
assemblies, and how to make drawings of
those parts and assemblies.

Part 2 (Day 5)
Lesson 1: SolidWorks
Basics and the User
Interface
Lesson 1: Modelling a
Casting or Forging
Lesson 1: Editing:
Repairs
Lesson 1: Annotations
Lesson 1: Using
Assemblies
Model parts with draft
and use symmetry in
sketches and features.
Find and fix errors
generated in SolidWorks
part files and the
“SWIFT” tools to
aid efficient use of
SolidWorks.
Explains what
SolidWorks does and
gives an overview of
what it looks like.
Lesson 2: Introduction
to Sketching
Create and dimension
2D sketches using
SolidWorks with an
explanation on how to
use common sketch
tools.
Lesson 2: Patterning
Learn common pattern
and mirror features in
SolidWorks.
Lesson 3: Revolved
Features
Create multiple
different features to
define the geometry of
a part.
Learn how to model
solids using revolved
features and some
special sketch
techniques for revolves.
Learn how to
use SolidWorks
SimulationXpress for
design checking and
comparative analysis.
Lesson 4: Drawing
Sheets and Views
Lesson 4: Shelling and
Ribs
Create a drawing sheet
and add different views
to that sheet.
Create thin walled parts
using the “Shell” feature
and support structures
using the “Rib” feature.
Lesson 3: Basic Part
Modelling
Lesson 5: Dimensions
Add annotations to
SolidWorks drawings.
Lesson 2: Sheet
Formats and Templates
Modify drawing sheet
formats and templates.
Lesson 2: Editing:
Design Changes
Lesson 3: Bottom-Up
Assembly Modeling
Make changes to
designs and understand
the factors that effect
the ability to make
future part changes.
Create an assembly in
SolidWorks.
Lesson 3:
Configurations of Parts
Create configurations
using different methods.
Add and manipulate
dimensions on a drawing
sheet.

BOMs and tables
Lesson 4: Performance
and Display Issues
Understand drawing
performance issues.
Lesson 5: Drawing
References and
Comparison
Learn how to compare
drawings.
