What Is Engineering Drawing
• An engineering drawing is a type of technical drawing, is
used to fully and clearly define requirements for
engineered items.
• Graphical means of expression of technical details without
the barrier of a language.
• Only way of communication in industry.

Universal language for Engineers

Need of Engineering
Drawing?
• To allow our designs to develop
from a thought or concept to a
design on paper
• To enable us to communicate our
designs for review
• To provide manufacturers working
with Engineering drawing based
from our original designs

 Visible/Object Lines
• Dark, heavy lines.
• Used to represent the outline or contour of the object
being drawn.
• Define features you can see in a particular view.
 Hidden Lines
• Light, narrow, short, dashed lines.
• Shows the outline of a feature that can not be seen in
a particular view.
• Used to help clarify a feature, but can be omitted if
they clutter a drawing.
Hidden Lines (Technique)
 Section Lines

• Thin line usually drawn at a 45 degree angle.

• Indicates the material that has been cut through in a
sectional view.

Section
Line
 Center Lines
• Thin line consisting of alternating long and short
dashes.
• Used to represent the center of round or cylindrical
features, or the symmetry of a feature.
 Dimension Lines
• Thin lines capped on the ends with arrowheads and
broken along their length to provide a space for the
dimension numeral.
• They indicate length.
 Extension Lines
• Thin lines used to establish the extent of a dimension.
• Can also be used to show extension of a surface to a
theoretical intersection as shown in (b).
• Begin 1.5mm from the object and extend to 3mm
beyond the last dimension.
• They should not cross dimension lines.
 Leader Lines
• Thin lines used to connect a specific note to a feature. Also
• used to direct dimensions, symbols, item number and part
numbers on a drawing.
• Commonly drawn at 45, 30 and 60 degrees.
• Has a short shoulder (3-6mm) at one end beginning at the
center of the vertical height of text, and a standard
dimension arrowhead at the other end touching the feature.

• Leader lines should not cross

each other.
• Leader lines should not be
excessively long.
• Leader lines should not be
vertical or horizontal.
• Leader lines should not be
parallel to dimension lines,
extension lines or section lines.
 Arrowheads
• Used to terminate dimension lines and leader lines and on
cutting-plane lines and viewing plane lines.
• They should be three times as long as they are wide.
• They should be the same size throughout the drawing.
• The filled arrowhead is generally preferred because of its
clarity.
 Cutting Plane Lines

• Thick broken line that is terminated with short 90

degree arrowheads.
• Shows where a part is mentally cut in half to better
see the interior detail.
Cutting Plane Lines (Example)
 Break Lines

• Used to break out sections for clarity or for shortening

a part.

• Three types of break lines with different line weights:

a) Short Breaks.
b) Long Breaks.
c) Cylindrical Breaks.
 a) Short Break Lines
• Thick wavy line.
• Used to break the edge or surface of a part for clarity
of a hidden surface.

(a) Short break line on metal shape;

(b) Short Break Line on wood shape.
 b) Long Break Lines

• Long, thin lines.

• Used to show that the middle section of an object has
been removed so it can be drawn on a smaller piece
of paper.
 c) Cylindrical Break Lines
• Thin lines.
• Used to show round parts that are broken in half to
better clarify the print or to reduce the length of the
object.

Cylindrical conventional breaks for a solid and tube;

where R = Radius
 Phantom Lines
• Thin lines made up of long dashes alternating with
pairs of short dashes.
• Three purposes in drawings
a)To show the alternate position of moving parts.
b)To show the relationship of parts that fit together.
c)To show repeated detail.

Dimensioning
Dimensioning
• When a drawing is done to scale, you should label it with its
dimensions.
• Use dimension lines to label each dimension, with extensions
where necessary
• You should label just enough edges to show all the dimensions,
but you don’t need to repeat.
• Dimensions are usually given in millimetres (mm). If you use
different units (cm, in, feet etc.) you need to write the unit.
You do not need to write mm if all of your dimensions are in
millimetres.
• Angles can be shown in degrees (°), diameter by Ø, and
radius by R.
 100 means 100mm
unless another unit is
specified

Dimensioning
Dimensions can also be
shown on isometric
drawings, but you have to
be a bit more careful. Also,
you should only show the
most important dimensions
on an isometric drawing.
Placing of
Dimension
 1. Between any two extension lines, there must be
one and only one dimension line bearing one
dimension.

2. As far as possible, all the dimensions should be

placed outside the views. Inside dimensions are
preferred only if they are clearer and more easily
readable.
RULES OF
DIMENSIONING 3. All the dimensions on a drawing must be shown
using either Aligned System or Unidirectional System.
No case should use the two systems be mixed on the
same drawing.

4. The same unit of length should be used for all the

dimensions on a drawing. The unit should not be
written after each dimension, but a note mentioning
the unit should be placed below the drawing.
 5. Dimension lines should not cross each other. Dimension
lines should also not cross any other lines of the object.

6. All dimensions must be given.

RULES OF 7. Each dimension should be given only once. No

dimension should be redundant.
DIMENSIONING 8. Do not use an outline or a centreline as a dimension line.
(Cont’d) A centreline may be extended to serve as an extension line.

9. Avoid dimensioning hidden lines.

10. For dimensions in series, adopt any one of the

following ways.
 i. Chain dimensioning (Continuous dimensioning):
All the dimensions are aligned in such a way that an
arrowhead of one dimension touches tip-to-tip the
arrowhead of the adjacent dimension. The overall
dimension is placed outside the other smaller
dimensions.
Series ii. Parallel dimensioning (Progressive dimensioning):
Dimensioning All the dimensions are shown from a common reference
line. Obviously, all these dimensions share a common
Methods extension line. This method is adopted when
dimensions have to be established from a particular
datum surface.
iii. Combined dimensioning :
When both the methods, i.e. chain dimensioning and
parallel dimensioning are used on the same drawing,
the method of dimensioning is called combined
dimensioning.

Lettering
 Lettering in Engineering Drawing
Lettering is used:
To communicate nongraphic information.

To provide easy to read and understand information to supplement a

drawing in the form of notes and annotations.

As a substitute for graphic information, in those instance where text

can communicate the needed information more clearly and quickly.
Thus, it must be written with
Legibility - shape
- space between letters and words
Uniformity - size
- line thickness
 Types of Lettering
The two types of lettering are:
1. Vertical Lettering
2. Inclined Lettering

vertical letters inclined letters

 Conventions for Lettering
• Use all CAPITAL LETTERS.
• Use even pressure to draw precise, clean lines.
• Use one stroke per line.
• Always Skip A Space Between Rows Of Letters.
• Always Use Very Light Guide Lines.
• Fractions Are Lettered Twice The Height Of Normal
Letters.
• Fraction Bars Are Always Drawn Horizontal.
 Application of Lettering
Lettering in Engineering Drawings is used in writing
Title Blocks which play a crucial role in drawings, they
are used to record all the important information
necessary for the working drawings.

What does the Title Block contain?

• Title of the drawing. • Symbol denoting the method of
• Drawing Number. projection.
• Scale. • Initials of staff who designed,
• Name of the firm. checked & approved.

Other uses of lettering include Dimensions and Notes

on the engineering drawing.
Placement of

Drawings
 Guidelines
Extremely light horizontal lines that are necessary to regulate
the height of letters.
In addition, light vertical or inclined guidelines are used to keep
the letters uniformly vertical or inclined.

• After lettering has been completed, the guidelines are not

erased.

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

Drawing Scale
 Drawing Scales
Length, size
Scale is the ratio of the linear dimension of an element
of an object shown in the drawing to the real linear
dimension of the same element of the object.

Size in drawing Actual size

:
 Drawing Scales
Designation of a scale consists of the word “SCALE”
followed by the indication of its ratio, as follow

SCALE 1:1 for full size

SCALE X:1 for enlargement scales (X > 1)
SCALE 1:X for reduction scales (X > 1)

Dimension numbers shown in the drawing are correspond

to “true size” of the object and they are independent of
the scale used in creating that drawing.
