    Study Notes

    Type X (A0~A4)

    • Type X refers to the sheet sizes A0 through A4.
    • The minimum border width "c" is 10mm for all sizes except A1 and A0, where it is 20mm.
    • The minimum border width "d" is 25mm for all sheet sizes.
    • The drawing space is the area within the borders.
    • The title block should be placed below the drawing space.

    Type Y (A4 only)

    • Type Y refers to specific drawing requirements for A4 sheet size only.
    • The title block is placed below the drawing space.

    Drawing Scales : Definition

    • Scale is the ratio between the linear dimension of a drawn representation of an object and the actual object.
    • Drawing scale is commonly found in the title block.

    Drawing Scales : Designation

    • Designating a scale consists of the word "SCALE" followed by its ratio.
    • For full-size drawings, the scale is "SCALE 1:1”.
    • For enlarged drawings, the scale is "SCALE X:1" where X is greater than 1.
    • For reduced drawings, the scale is "SCALE 1:X" where X is greater than 1.

    Drawing Scales : Notes

    • Dimension numbers shown in a drawing represent the true size of an object, independent of the drawing scale used.

    Drawing Scales : Standard scales

    • Standard reducing scales are: 1:2, 1:5, 1:10, 1:20, 1:50, 1:100
    • Standard enlarging scales are: 2:1, 5:1, 10:1, 20:1, 50:1, 100:1

    Lettering : Recommendation

    • Text on drawings should have uniform shape, size (text height), and thickness of stroke, with appropriate space between letters and words.

    Lettering : Style (this course)

    • Gothic vertical style.
    • Begin the sentence, phrase, or word with a capital letter.
    • Text height should be 2-3 mm.
    • Spacing between adjacent contours depends on the shape of the letters:
      • Straight-straight: II, IN, IM, IP etc.
      • Straight-curve (or curve-straight): IO, QR etc.
      • Straight-slant (or slant-straight): IV, IW etc.
      • Curve-curve: OO, OG etc.
      • Slant-curve (or curve-slant): VO, WG, VC etc.
      • Slant-slant: VW, VX etc.
    • Leave the space between words equal to the space required for writing a letter "O".

    Line Types : Basic Line Types & Name according to application

    • Visible line: Continuous line, thick. Represents features that can be seen in the current view.
    • Hidden line: Dash line, thin. Represents features that cannot be seen in the current view.
    • Dimension line: Continuous line, thin. Indicates the sizes and locations of features.
    • Extension line: Continuous line, thin. Extends from the object to the dimension line.
    • Leader line: Continuous line, thin. Connects a dimension or note to a specific feature.
    • Center line: Chain line, thin. Represents symmetry, path of motion, centers of circles, and axis of axisymmetrical parts.

    Elements of a Drawing

    • Engineering drawings require both graphics and word languages.
    • Graphics describe the object's shape primarily.
    • Word language describes the exact size, location, and specification of the object.
    • Text on drawings includes dimensions, notes, and the title block.

    Knowledge and Skills Require : Engineering Drawing

    • Graphics language:
      • Geometric construction
      • Projection method
      • Using line types
    • Word language:
      • Dimensions & Notes
      • Visualization

    Drawing Sheet : Standard size (JIS)

    • Standard sheet sizes are A0, A1, A2, A3, and A4.
    • Dimensions are in millimeters:
      • A4: 210 x 297
      • A3: 297 x 420
      • A2: 420 x 594
      • A1: 594 x 841
      • A0: 841 x 1189

    Drawing Sheet : Orientation & Margin

    • Orientation refers to the layout of the drawing on the sheet.
    • Margin refers to the blank space around the drawing area.
    • The sheet should be oriented with the longer side as the vertical direction.
    • Margins are used for binding, folding, and leaving space for notes and other information.

    Definition and Necessity

    • Drawing standards are a set of rules that govern how technical drawings are represented.
    • They ensure drawings convey the same meaning to everyone who reads them.

    Standard Code

    • Different countries have different standard codes:
      • USA: ANSI (American National Standard Institute)
      • Japan: JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard)
      • UK: BS (British Standard)
      • Australia: AS (Australian Standard)
      • Germany: DIN (Deutsches Institut für Normung)
      • International: ISO (International Standards Organization)

    Pictorial Projection

    • Pictorial projections are used to represent three-dimensional objects on a two-dimensional plane.
    • Two main types: Axonometric and Oblique projections.
    • Axonometric projection: parallel lines of sight are normal to the picture plane.
    • Oblique projection: parallel lines of sight are oblique (not normal) to the picture plane.

    Axonometric Projection

    • All parallel lines in space remain parallel in the projection.
    • The projection is determined by the angle between the line of sight and the picture plane.

    Types of Axonometric Projection

    • Isometric: All three angles are equal.
    • Dimetric: Two of the three angles are equal.
    • Trimetric: All three angles are unequal.

    Oblique Projection

    • Oblique drawing angle is the angle between the line of sight and the picture plane.
    • Two main types: Cavalier and Cabinet.
    • Cavalier: full scale in all directions.
    • Cabinet: full scale in one direction, half scale in the other.

    Isometric Projection

    • Regular isometric: View point is looking down on the top of the object.
    • Reverse isometric: View point is looking up on the bottom of the object.
    • Long axis isometric: View point is looking from the right (or left) of the object.
    • Isometric lines are parallel to any of the isometric axes.
    • Nonisometric lines are not parallel to any of the isometric axes.
    • In an isometric drawing, a circle appears as an ellipse.
    • Isometric drawings are used for a variety of purposes, including technical drawings, architectural plans, and product design.

    Isometric Sketching

    • Sketch from an actual object: Place the object in a position where its shape and features are visible. Define an isometric axis. Sketch the enclosing box (or cylinder). Estimate the size and relationship of each detail. Darken all visible lines.
    • Sketch from a multiview drawing: Interpret the meaning of lines/areas in the multiview drawing. Locate the lines or surfaces relative to the isometric axis.
    • Hidden lines in isometric sketches/drawings are omitted unless absolutely necessary.

    Oblique Sketching

    • Complex features are placed parallel to the frontal plane.
    • The longest dimension of an object should be parallel to the frontal plane.

    Orientation of Isometric Axes

    • Isometric axes can be arbitrarily oriented to create different views of a single object.

    Distance in Isometric Sketch

    • True-length distances are shown along isometric lines.

    Isometric Projection vs. Isometric Drawing

    • Isometric projection (true projection): the projection is a true representation of the object, but it is not full scale.
    • Isometric drawing (full size): it is a full-scale representation of the object, but it is not a true projection.
    • Isometric drawing is a full-size, full-scale representation of an object, but it is not a true projection.
    • Isometric projection is a scaled representation of an object.
