Chapter 8 – Engineering Drawing (1)


Why ? Effectiveness of Engineering Drawing
1. Try to write a description of
this object.

2. Test your written description


by having someone attempt
to make a sketch from your
description.

You can easily understand that …


The word languages are inadequate for describing the
size, shape and features completely as well as
concisely.
• An engineering drawing is a type of technical
drawing used to fully and clearly define
requirements for engineered items (from en.wikipedia.org)

• a formal and precise way (graphic


language) for communicating
information about the shape and size
of physical objects.
• a mean for specifying the precision of
physical objects.
Important as it is a legal document, i.e., if
the drawings are wrong, it is the fault of the
engineers!
Freehand drawing
The lines are sketched without using instruments other
than pencils and erasers.

Example

From Lec. Bhuiyan Shameem Mahmood


1- Instrument drawing
Instruments are used to draw straight lines, circles, and
curves concisely and accurately. Thus, the drawings are
usually made to scale.

From Lec. Bhuiyan Shameem Mahmood


2- Computer drawing
The drawings are usually made by commercial software
such as AutoCAD, SolidWorks etc.
Two different standards:
ISO (World Standard)
ANSI/ASME Y14 (American)

All ISO paper sizes have the same


aspect ratio (1:√𝟐 ) ……………… a document designed for
any given size can be enlarged or reduced to any other size and will fit
perfectly Can you
locate the
printer and
the plotter
in this lab?
▪ Objects must be scaled to fit onto a piece of drawing paper

▪ They are exact in every detail but reduced or enlarged in size in


direct proportion to the actual object

▪ Scale 1:1 implies 1mm (unit) on drawing paper represents 1 mm


of the actual object
Line Types Basic Dimensions
Object Lines – represent visible features for an object. They are the darkest
and most present.

Hidden Lines – represent features that cannot be seen in the current view.
They are as dark as the object lines.

Center lines – represent symmetry and mark the center of circles, the
axes of cylinders, and the axes of symmetrical parts, such as bolts

Dimension Lines display precise information about the size of the object.
10cm

Construction lines - Basic faint lines which are drawn to provide a framework
for the completion of the projection.

origin and an angle θ between the direction of
r and the positive X axis.
✓remember that AutoCAD
recognizes an object by its
coordinates. You will need two
given points to draw a line.

✓You can start at a random point


on your WCS for your FIRST
POINT, but you should specify the
b (x2,y2,z2)
coordinates of your SECOND
POINT.
a
(x1,y1,z1)
b
(10,11)
a
(4,8)

If we know the coordinates of the line we want to draw,


we can simply type them into the command line.
(However, this mostly is not the case.)
1. Give the command
2. Specify the first point (4,8)
3. Specify the second point (10,11)

1. Give the command


• Type “line” on the command window, OR
• Click on the line icon on the Draw toolbar, OR
• Select Line on the Draw menu
2. Specify the first point (a)
• Click on a random point on your working area (black space)
3. Specify the second point in relation to the first point

4. Specify the second point in relation to the first point
• Point the cursor to the left hand side. You will see that the
cursor snaps only to 0o-90o-180o-270o
