INTRODUCTION 3
Drawing
The graphical representation of any object or idea can be termed as drawing. A drawing can be prepared either using free hand
or using engineering instruments or using computer program(CAD).

Types of Drawing
1. Artistic Drawing.
2. Engineering Drawing.

Artistic Drawing
The drawing representing any object or idea which is sketched in free hand using imagination of artist and in which proper
scaling and dimensioning is not maintained is called an artistic drawing. Example: Painting, Posters,
Arts etc.

Engineering Drawing
It is used by engineers and technologists. An engineering drawing provides all information about size, shape, surface type,
materials etc. of the object.
Example: Building drawing for civil engineers, Machine drawing for mechanical engineers, Circuit diagrams for electrical and
electronics engineers, computer graphics for one and all etc.

INTRODUCTION 4

Types of Engineering Drawing

Engineering drawing can be grouped into following 4 major categories:
1. Geometrical Drawing
a. Plane geometrical drawing
b. Solid geometrical drawing
2. Mechanical Engineering Drawing
3. Civil Engineering Drawing
4. Electrical & Electronics Engineering drawing etc.

DIMENSIONING 6
The purpose of dimensioning is to provide a clear and complete
description of an object.
Elements of Dimension System
Extension lines
Dimension lines
Arrowheads
Leaders
Texts, numbers and symbols.

Purpose of Dimensioning
Sizes and locations of features
Material’s type
Number required
Kind of surface finish
Manufacturing process
Size and geometric tolerance

PROJECTION 7
Orthographic Projection
'ORTHO' means right angle and orthographic means right angled
drawing. When the projectors are perpendicular to the plane on which
the projection is obtained, it is known as orthographic projection.
Following six views are possible in orthographic projection of a solid
object.
a. Top View
b. Front view
c. Left View
d. Right View
e. Rear view
f. Bottom view

Perspective Projection
It is a type of pictorial projection in which projectors are not parallel to
each other and they occur at an angle to the picture plane in such a way
that they converge to a point as if an observer sees the view on the
picture plane from that point. In case of perspective projection observer
is considered to be at finite distance where in case of any other type of
projection observer is considered to be at infinity.

Arrangement of Views 9
Orthographic views are arranged in two techniques as
a. 1st angle projection (Used in European countries; ISO standard) also known as British system
b. 3rd angle projection (Used in Bangladesh, Canada, USA, Japan, Thailand) also known as American system.

Arrangement of Views 10
Orthographic Projections of Hidden Surfaces
To describe an object with complex internal features completely, a drawing should contain lines representing all the edges,
intersections, and surface limits of the objects.
To represent curved surfaces in orthographic projections, center lines are commonly utilized. All the center lines are the
axes of symmetry.

SECTIONING 11

A sectional view is a view of an imaginary surface, exposed by an imaginary slicing-open of an object, allowing
interior details to become visible. A sectional view is sometimes referred to as a cross section or simply section. It is a
view in which all or a substantial portion of the view is sectioned.

Design Documentation 19

A design document is a complete high-level

solution to the problem presented.

The Mechanical design document is a

technical document describing the
components and specifications required to
support the solution and ensure that the
specific business and technical
requirements of the design are satisfied.
