Drawing
Introduction
An engineering drawing is a type of technical
drawing, used to fully and clearly define
requirements for engineered items, and is usually
created in accordance with standardized
conventions for layout, nomenclature,
interpretation, appearance size, etc.
Its purpose is to accurately and unambiguously
capture all the geometric features of a product or
a component.
The end goal of an engineering drawing is to
convey all the required information that will allow
a manufacturer to produce that component.

Purpose of an Engineering Drawing
1. An engineering drawing is not an illustration.
2. It is a specification of the size and shape of a part or assembly.
3. The important information on a drawing is the dimension and
tolerance of all of its features.
4
Elements of Engineering Drawing
Engineering drawing are made up of graphics language
and word language.
Graphics
language
Describe a shape
(mainly).
Word
language
Describe size, location and
specification of the object.

PROJECTION THEORY
9
Line of sight is an imaginary ray of light between an
observer’s eye and an object.
Parallel projection
Line of sight
10
Plane of projection is an imaginary flat plane which
the image is created.
The image is produced by connecting the points where
the LOS pierce the projection plane.

Projection
Orthographic projection
• Orthographic" comes from the Greek word for "straight
writing (or drawing)." This projection shows the object
as it looks from the front, right, left, top, bottom, or
back, and are typically positioned relative to each other
according to the rules of either “First Angle” or “Third
Angle” projection.

14
MEANING
Orthographic projection is a parallel projection technique
in which the parallel lines of sight are perpendicular to the
projection plane

General conclusions are:
Space between the letters depends on the contour of
the letters at an adjacent side.
Good spacing creates approximately equal background
area between letters.

Angle Dimensions
• Length
– English - Inches, unless
otherwise stated
• Up to 72 inches – feet and
inches over
– SI – millimeter, mm
• Angle
– degrees, minutes, seconds

Dimensioning Holes
96
Drilled Holes, Counter bores and Countersinks
• Dimension the one vertex for an angled face, the other vertex is determined by an
intersection.
• Chamfers are generally 45 with the width of the face specified. 98
Rounded Bars and Slots
• The rounded end of a bar or slot has a radius that is 1/2 its width.
• Use R to denote this radius, do not dimension it twice.
• Locate the center of the arc, or the center of the slot.
99
Limits of Size
• All dimensions have minimum and maximum values
specified by the tolerance block.
• Tolerances accumulate in a chain of dimensions.
• Accumulation can be avoided by using a single baseline.
100
Fit Between Parts
1. Clearance fit: The shaft maximum diameter is smaller than the hole minimum
diameter.
2. Interference fit: The shaft minimum diameter is larger than the hole maximum
diameter.
3. Transition fit: The shaft maximum diameter and hole minimum have an interference
fit, while the shaft minimum diameter and hole maximum diameter have a clearance
fit

Dimensioning Basic Shapes -Assumptions
• Perpendicularity
– Assume lines that appear
perpendicular to be 90° unless
otherwise noted
• Symmetry
– If a part appears symmetrical – it is
(unless it is dimensioned
otherwise)
– Holes in the center of a cylindrical
object are automatically located
