Technical Drawing
Technical drawing, also known as drafting, is the academic discipline of creating
standardized technical drawings by architects, interior designers, drafters, design engineers, and
related professionals. Standards and conventions for layout, line thickness, text size, symbols,
view projections, descriptive geometry, dimensioning, and notation are used to create
drawings that are ideally interpreted in only one way.
Have you ever tried to assemble something without a diagram? You won’t get very far.
Technical drawings are visual instructions used to help us determine the overall layout and design
of what is being drafted. Example: A floor plan of a house.
A technical drawing shows how an object should look, how it will be put together, or how it
looks from different directions and is drawn to scale. Artistic drawings allow for distortion and
artist’s interpretation.
