ENGINEERING DRAWING
Drawing is the graphical language of engineers, which is built upon certain basic principles and standards.
A good drawing: Presentation of an object, of a part of it, and is the result of creative thought by engineer or technician.
Engineering drawing is a two dimensional representation of three-dimensional objects.
In general, it provides necessary information about the shape, size,surface quality, material, manufacturing process, etc., of the object.

ENGINEERING DRAWING STANDARDS
Drawing STANDARDS are sets of rules that govern
how technical drawings are represented.
Standards allow for the clear communication of technical
ideas.
Drawing standards are used so that drawing convey the
same meaning to everyone who read them.

You will need a selection of pencils. A hard leaded pencil (6H) can be
used for light lines, a softer pencil (2H) for the outlines and an even softer pencil
(HB) for printing. (More than one pencil of each grade will save you from
frequent re-sharpening.)
24
You will need at least two compasses: a
small spring bow compass for small
circles and one for larger circles.

33Before you start any drawing you first decide how large the
drawings have to be.
The recommended scales in Engineering Drawing
are
34
SCALE SPESFICATION
If all drawings are made to the same scale, the scale should be indicated in or
near the title block. Where it is necessary to use more than one scale on a
drawing, the main scale only should be shown in the title block and all the
other scales, adjacent to the item reference number of the part concerned or
near the drawings.
Exercise 1
Draw the simple key shown in Fig. 1 full size.
35
FOLDING
Only format A4 is convenient for filling. Other
formats (larger in size) exceed the size of the file
and thus must be folded before filing.
Drawings which that do not need fastening are
fold in a logical way to give an A4 size.

PRINCIPLES OF DIMENSIONING
46
When an engineering drawing is made, dimensioning
is of vital importance.
All the dimensions necessary to make the articles
drawn must be on the drawing and they must be
presented so that they can be easily read, easily found
and not open to misinterpretation.
A neat drawing can be spoilt by bad dimensioning.
Some of the basic principles of dimensioning are given below.
1. All dimensional information necessary to describe a component
clearly and completely shall be written directly on a drawing.
2. Each feature shall be dimensioned once only on a drawing, i.e.,
dimension marked in one view need not be repeated in another
view.
3. Dimension should be placed on the view where the shape is best
seen
4. As far as possible, dimensions should be expressed in one unit
only preferably in millimeters, without showing the unit symbol
(mm).
5. As far as possible dimensions should be placed outside the view.
6. Dimensions should be taken from visible outlines rather than
from hidden lines. 47
48
EXECUTION METHODS
The elements of
dimensioning include
the projection line,
dimension line, leader
line, dimension line
termination, the origin
indication and the
dimension itself.
49
TERMINATION AND ORGIN INDICATOR
50
Dimension lines
should show
distinct termination,
in the form of arrow
heads or oblique
strokes or where
applicable, an
origin indication.
ARRANGEMENT OF DIMENSION
51
CHAIN DIMENSION PARALLEL DIMENSION
RUNNING DIMENSION CO-ORDINATE DIMENSION
The following rules must be adhered to when dimensioning:
1. Projection lines should be thin lines and should extend from about 1 mm
from the outline to 3 mm to 6 mm past the dimension line.
2. The dimension line should be a thin line and terminate with arrowheads
at least 3 mm long and these arrowheads must touch the projection lines.
3. The dimension may be inserted within a break in the dimension line or
be placed on top of the dimension line.
4. The dimensions should be placed so that they are read from the bottom
of the paper or from the right-hand side of the paper.
5. Dimension lines should be drawn outside the outline, whenever
possible, and should be kept well clear of the outline.
6. Overall dimensions should be placed outside the intermediate
dimensions.
52
ILLUSTRATION OF 1-6 RULES
53
7. Centre lines must never be used as dimension lines. They may be used as projection
lines.
8. Diameters may be dimensioned in one of two ways. Either dimension directly
across the circle ( not on a Centre line), or project the diameter to outside the outline. ‘
Diameter ’ is denoted by the symbol φ placed in front of the dimension.
9. When dimensioning a radius, you must, if possible, show the centre of the radius.
The actual dimension for the radius may be shown either side of the outline but should, of
course, be kept outside if possible. The word radius must be abbreviated to R and placed in
front of the dimension.
10. When a diameter or a radius is too small to be dimensioned by any of the above
methods, a leader may be used. The leader line should be a thin line and should terminate on
the detail that it is pointing to with an arrowhead or, within an outline, with a dot. Long leader
lines should be avoided even if it means inserting another dimension. The leader line should
always meet another line at an acute angle.
11. Dimensions should not be repeated on a drawing. It is necessary to put a
dimension on only once, however many views are drawn. There is one exception to this rule. If,
by inserting one dimension, it saves adding up lots of small dimensions then this is allowed.
These types of dimensions are called ‘ auxiliary dimensions ’ and are shown to be so
either by underlining the dimensions or putting it in brackets. 54
55
Illustrating rules 7 – 11.
12. Unless unavoidable, do not dimension hidden detail. It is
usually possible to dimension the same detail on another view.
13. When dimensioning angles, draw the dimension lines with a
compass; the point of the compass should be on the point of the
angle. The arrowheads may be drawn either side of the dimension
lines, and the dimension may be inserted between the dimension
lines or outside them.
Whatever the angle, the dimension must be placed so that it can
be read from either the bottom of the paper or from the right-hand
side.
14. If a lot of parallel dimensions are given, it avoids confusion if
the dimensions are staggered so that they are all easier to read.
56
15. If a lot of dimensions are to be shown from one projection line (often
referred to as a datum line ), either of the methods shown in Fig. 18.20 may be
used. Note that in both methods, the actual dimension is close to the arrowhead
and not at the center of the dimension line.
16. If the majority of dimensions on a drawing are in one unit, it is not
necessary to put on the abbreviation for the units used, i.e. cm or mm. In this case,
the following note must be printed on your drawing.
UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED, DIMENSIONS ARE IN MILLIMETRES
17. If a very large radius is drawn, whose centre is off the drawing, the
dimension line is drawn with a single zig-zag in it.
18. Dimensioning small spaces raises its own problems and solutions.
Some examples are shown in Fig. 18.21 . There are one or two more rules that do
not require illustrating.
19. If the drawing is to scale, the dimensions put on the drawing are the
actual dimensions of the component and not the size of the line on your drawing.
57
58
Illustrating rules 12 – 19.
Positioning of views to be drawn
In order to space out the
views that you will draw on your
paper use the following formulas (A,
B and C are the maximum sizes of
your views) and the p and q
dimensions are the distances between
the views.
You do not have to use exact
dimensions which might complicate
the sums; use sensible
approximations for A, B and C
59
LINES
Lines of different types and thicknesses are
used for graphical representation of objects.
These lines differ in:
i. Thickness and
ii. Style

LETTERING
Lettering is the art of writing alphabets A,
B, C D…Z and numbers 1, 2, 3, 4,…0.
Lettering is used to describe various parts of
the drawing and to also provide other details as
may be contained in the title box.
66
IMPORTANCE OF LETTERING
To undertake production work of engineering components as per the drawing, thesize and other details are indicated on the drawing.
This is done in the form of notes and dimensions.
Main Features of Lettering are legibility, uniformity and rapidity ofexecution. Use of drawing instruments for lettering consumes more time. Letteringshould be done freehand with speed.
Practice accompanied by continuous efforts would improve the lettering skill andstyle.
Poor lettering mars the appearance of an otherwise good drawing.
67
IMPORTANCE OF LETTERING Cont.
Note: Lettering in drawing should be in CAPITALS (i.e., Upper-case
letters).
Lower-case (small) letters are used for abbreviations like mm, cm, etc.
68
SIZE OF LETTERS
The following specifications are given for the dimensions of letters
and numerals:
The height of capital letters is taken as the base of dimensioning.
The two standard ratios for d/h, 1/14 and 1/10 are the most
economical, as they result in a minimum number of line thicknesses.
The lettering may be inclined at 15° to the right, or may be vertical.
69
NOTE: The spacing between
two characters may be reduced
by half, if this gives a better
visual effect as for example
LA, TV; it then equals the line
thickness.
70
Hints on Lettering
To save time, use a guide lining device
The recommended height of lettering is 3-mm
During initial learning period, make a point of concentrating on hand control
Endeavor to make your hand do what you want it to do and not otherwise.
Remember your fingers are not used to such movements, so they have to be
trained until hand control becomes effortless
Do not guess at the construction of letters and numerals. Use the sample letter
Make letters and numerals as wide as they are high with individual letters of
a word almost touching
Spacing between words is a matter of judgment and tends to improve with
practice
Lines of lettering should be spaced the same distance apart
Do not attempt to erase guide lines after lettering has been completed

THE CONSTRUCTION OF GEOMETRIC FIGURES FROM
GIVEN DATA
Plane geometry: is the study of two-dimensional objects. The objects dealt
with plane geometry are specified with their height and width.
73
Plane and Solid Geometry
A point is a non-dimensional geometric element it occurs by intersection of at
least two lines. A point has no dimensions, only location.
Solid geometry is the geometry of three-dimensional figures.
There are an endless number of plane figures but we will concern ourselves only with the more
common ones – the triangle, the quadrilateral and the better known polygons.
It is a one dimensional geometrical element occurred by moving a point along a certain
direction. There are basically vertical lines, horizontal lines and inclined lines. A line is
one-dimensional.
Drawing Lines
Lines are drawing with the help of
rulers, set square and pencils.
When drawing a line, it is a good
practice to keep his pencil vertical
and starting from one point you
slide it towards the other end.
Once a line is drawn, experts never
go through the drawn line once
again

TANGENCY
A tangent to a circle is a
straight line which touches
the circle at one and only one
point.
These have wide applications
in Engineering Drawing
since the outlines of most
engineering details are made
up of straight lines and arcs.
Wherever a straight line
meets an arc, a tangent meets
a circle.97
