About CAD Parametric Modeling: Sketches, Features, and Design Intent

Copied

How history-based CAD actually works: constraining 2D sketches until they have zero degrees of freedom, growing solids with extrudes, revolves, sweeps, and lofts, and structuring the feature tree so edits regenerate cleanly. A student who finishes can build a fully parametric part driven by named equations and configurations, mate parts into an assembly, explain why a careless edit breaks downstream features (the topological naming problem), and judge when direct modeling is the better tool.
