  1. Extension Line • Dimension lines: • Shows the beginning and the end of the measurement. • Terminated by arrowheads. • Thin line (dark) weight. • Should be broken to allow for the numbers to be inserted. • Must be a minimum of .375" or 10mm away from the object. • Must be a minimum of .250" or 6mm away from parallel dimension lines. Dimension Line

  2. Extension Line • Extension lines: • Extend the edge of the object. • Thin line (dark) weight. • There should be a visible gap (.0625" or 1mm) between the object and the start of the extension line. • Extension lines should extend about .125" or 2.5mm beyond the last dimension line. Dimension Line

  3. Leader lines: • Are drawn from a note or dimension to place where the note applies. • Are drawn at an angle (usually 30°, 45°, or 60°). • Should have a short (.125" or 3mm) shoulder that if extended, would intersect the note at mid-height. • May end with an arrowhead or dot. • Leaders should not cross over or through other leaders or dimension lines. • Avoid making leaders parallel or perpendicular to visible edges. • .

  4. Arrowheads: • Can be solid filled or open. • Should be approximately .125" or 3mm long. • Should be approximately 2.5 to 3 times as long as wide.

  7. Procedures for using decimal and metric measurement. • Decimal inches: • Decimals are the ANSI standard. • Decimals are easier to add, subtract, multiply and divide than fractions. • Preferably, decimals should be rounded to two decimal places. Omit zero before the decimal point for values of less than one. • Fractional inches: • Used where close tolerances are not important. • The horizontal fraction bar is preferred. • Metric: • Where linear measurement are less than 10,000 millimeters, the millimeter is the standard unit of measure. • The abbreviation for millimeters (mm) is usually omitted when all dimensions are in millimeters. • The period is used as a decimal point only in English speaking countries, others use a comma.

  8. The number one rule of dimensioning is that of clarity. • Place dimensions where the shape is best shown. • Shortest dimensions placed closest to the object. • Group and align dimensions when possible. • Avoid duplicate and/or unnecessary dimensions. • Try to avoid placing dimensions inside a view. • Avoid crowding dimensions. • Avoid dimensioning to hidden features. • Place dimensions between the views to which they relate. • Lines should be thin and contrast noticeably with visible lines. • Dimensions should be included that describe both size and location of features. • The diameter of cylinders is dimensioned in the rectangular view. The diameter of machined holes is dimensionedin the circular view.

  9. Cartesian Coordinate System

  10. Polar CoordinatesPolar coordinates used when you need to draw the next points at specify angle. Polar coordinates system in AutoCAD specifies distance length at which angle. Using polar coordinate, points entered by typing @distance<angle [Enter] Polar Coordinate System

  11. Absolute Coordinate System Relative CoordinatesAfter first points entered, your next points can be entered by specifying the next coordinate compare/relative from the first points. The relative coordinate started with symbol “@” tell AutoCAD it was a relative coordinates. Using relative coordinate, points entered by typing @x,y [Enter]

  12. Boolean Commands. • Union (+ or ) – adds parts together • Subtract or Difference (  ) – removes parts or features • Intersection ( * or  ) – Intersects overlapping volumes into a single feature

  13. Purpose of a Sketch • Quickly & easily get an idea on paper • Design sketches • Freehand technical sketches • Technical illustrations

  14. Freehand Technical Sketch

  15. Design Sketch

  16. Technical Illustration

  17. Sketching Lines • Vertical lines • Top to bottom • Long straight lines • Series of short straight lines

  18. Sketching Circles & Arcs • Begin by lightly constructing a square

  19. Sketching Angles • Begin with 90°angle 45° 60° 30° Subdivide once Subdivide twice

  20. Sketching • Types of Sketches • Single-view • Multi-view • Pictorials

  21. Single-view Sketching • Technical purposes • Front view • Most descriptive features

  22. Multi-view Sketching • Technical sketch • Front view • Top view • Side view

  23. Pictorial Sketches • Quickly communicate an idea • Three dimensions in one view • Width • Height • Depth

  24. Pictorial Sketches • Three (3) types • Isometric • Oblique • Perspective

  25. Isometric Sketch HEIGHT WIDTH DEPTH

  26. Isometric Sketching • Three equally spaced axes of 120°

  27. Isometric Sketching • Receding lines • Typically 30° off horizontal

  28. Isometric Sketching • Circular shapes appear as ellipses

  29. Isometric Ellipses • Correct ellipse orientation

  30. Isometric Sketching • Non-Isometric lines • Locate endpoints and connect

  31. Oblique Sketch HEIGHT DEPTH WIDTH

  32. Oblique Sketching • Front view is drawn true shape and size

  33. Oblique Sketching • Receding edges are usually drawn at an angle of 30°, 45°, or 60°

  34. Oblique Sketching • Circles and curves drawn on frontal plane will appear true shape and size

  35. Perspective Sketches 1-Point Perspective 2-Point Perspective

  36. Perspective Sketches • Objects appear as the eye would see them • Most realistic type of pictorial sketch • Most difficult pictorial sketch to draw

  37. Drafting Equipment • Drawing board/table

  38. Drafting Equipment • Drawing Horizontal lines • T-square • Parallel edge • Drafting Machine • Arm/elbow type • Track type

  39. Drafting Equipment - Triangles • 45° Triangle • Draw vertical lines and lines @ 45° • 30° x 60° Triangle • Draw vertical lines and lines @ 30° and 60° • Adjustable Triangle • Draw lines @ 0° to 90°

Used for art work of various kinds and full-size details in architectural drawing. MEDIUM General purpose work. Softer grades (right) used for technical sketching, lettering, freehand work. Harder grades (left) used for line work on machine & architectural drawings. HARD Used where extreme accuracy is required. Softer grades (right) used for line work on engineering drawings. Draw very light lines.

  41. Drafting Equipment - Scales • Engineer (Civil) • Mechanical drafter • Metric • Architecture

  42. Drafting Media Types • Vellum • Tracing paper treated to make it more transparent • Most commonly used drafting media • Polyester drafting films (mylar) • Very transparent, strong, and lasting • Strongest drafting media • Bond • Standard printing and copy paper

  43. Drafting Media Sizes E – 44 X 34 48 X 36 D – 34 X 22 36 X 24 C – 22 X 17 18 X 24 B – 17 X 11 12 X 18 A – 11 X 8.5 9 X 12

  44. Lettering • Practice of adding clear, concise words on a drawing to help people understand the drawing • Notes lettered on rough sketches are functional and important to operation • Simple freehand lettering completes the idea captured in a sketch

  45. Lettering Composition • Letter and word spacing should be about uniform • Space between words should equal the approximate width of the letter “O” • Background area between letters should appear equal

  46. Lettering • Practice of adding clear, concise words on a drawing to help people understand the drawing • Notes lettered on rough sketches are functional and important to operation • Simple freehand lettering completes the idea captured in a sketch

  47. Lettering Composition • Letter and word spacing should be about uniform • Space between words should equal the approximate width of the letter “O” • Background area between letters should appear equal

  48. Guidelines • Horizontal guidelines keep letters the same height • Vertical guidelines aid the eye in keeping letters from slanting • Guidelines are drawn very light and very thin • Do not need to be erased • Uniform vertical space should be left between lines of letters

  49. Types of Lettering • ANSI(American National Standards Institute) • Recognizes the use of single-stroke Gothic letters • Letters are formed using a series of strokes • Typically all capital letters are used • Most common lettering on Engineering Drawings • Vertical, Uppercase, Gothic

  50. 1 6 2 Lettering Standards • Typically, most letters are .125” (3mm) tall • Fractions are typically twice as tall as numbers • Fraction bar is horizontal and does not touch the numbers
