Engineering maths/auto cad

eire-kp

I'm just wondering if any one could recommend two good books on basic engineering maths and autocad.


Im returning to college next year and have some exams to take on June on these after a week of lectures on each subject so I figure Im as well to get my head around some of the basics as its been a while since I had to study!

for the autocad just go to cadtutor.net It pretty much covers all the areas we covered in the small bit of teaching in autocad we got when I was doing structural engineering degree.

It would be a good idea to get the topic material for the exams/lectures. That way you won't be preparing for stuff you that is irrelevant.

also check out for some good maths tutorials

and
http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/civil-and-environmental-engineering/

I found both of these sites invaluable during my degree.
