SOLIDWORKS Practice Problem 2.3 | Three-Boss Mounting Flange | CSWA Level 2

Today we will be working through SOLIDWORKS Practice Problem 2.3: the Three-Boss Mounting Flange. This complete CSWA Level 2 demonstration covers: • Setting up the part using MMGS units • Interpreting the supplied engineering drawing and section view • Creating fully defined, symmetric sketches • Positioning the model around the indicated origin • Using lines, centerlines, circles, arcs, and Offset Entities • Applying concentric, tangent, symmetric, and dimensional relations • Creating the Ø105 central boss and bore • Creating two smaller mounting bosses and through-holes • Maintaining a constant 3 mm web thickness • Building the triangular support webs • Using multiple Boss-Extrude features • Creating cut features and mirrored geometry • Verifying the finished model with Mass Properties Problem specifications: • Category: Sketch Tools and End Conditions — Level 2 • Units: MMGS • Difficulty: Medium • Certification: CSWA • Suggested completion time: 10 minutes • Central boss outside diameter: Ø105 mm • Side mounting-hole spacing: 175 mm • Side holes: 2X Ø23.33 mm • Constant web thickness: 3 mm • Central boss height: 38 mm • Target volume: 325,633 mm³ Try completing the problem independently before following the demonstration. When finished, compare your sketch relations, offsets, feature order, web thickness, mirrored geometry, and calculated volume with the supplied solution.
