Study Notes
Lines in Technical Drawings
- Visible Object Lines: Thick, dark, solid lines that represent the edges and details of objects in drawings.
- Hidden Lines: Thin, dashed lines that signify surfaces or contours of objects that are not visible or are obscured.
Center, Section, and Dimension Lines
- Center Lines: Consist of alternating long and short dashes, indicating the center of symmetrical features like circles and arcs; essential for dimensioning.
- Section Lines: Thin "cross hatching" lines used in sectional views, highlighting different materials or parts of an object in manufacturing.
Dimensioning Lines
- Dimension, Extension, and Leader Lines: Thin lines important for dimensioning, typically ending with arrowheads and accompanied by numerical indications for size or location.
Viewing and Break Lines
- Cutting Plane/Viewing Plane Lines: Very thick lines that indicate where an imaginary cutting plane intersects an object; arrowheads direct towards the view surface.
- Break Lines: Utilized to truncate a view or remove repetitive details; can be represented as thick wavy lines for short breaks, and thin straight zigzags for longer breaks.
Phantom Lines and Graphic Alphabet
- Phantom Lines: Thin lines that illustrate alternate positions of moving parts, depict lines of motion, and represent adjacent or repetitive details.
- Alphabet of Lines: Refers to the various lines and symbols used in technical drawings, forming a visual language for representation.
