Importance
Graphic Language & Effectiveness

Try writing the description of these pictures

Graphic Language & Effectiveness
..Or these pictures

And let someone attempt to make a sketch or visualize

from your description.
Graphic Language & Effectiveness

It can be found that

The word language is

inadequate
for describing the
size, shape and features
completely as well as concisely.

Visualization
Problem identification is the ability to mentally
Visualize picture things that do not
& exploration of ideas
exist

Draw , design and

Sketches record initial ideas
Communication
the design solution
should be communicated
Created from sketches to others without
Geometric model used or analysis ambiguity

Standards
 Standards Definition
Drawing standards are set of rules that govern how
technical drawings are represented.

Why Necessary
Drawing standards are used so that drawings convey
the same meaning to everyone who reads them.

Drawing Scale
 Drawing Scales : Definition
Length, size
Scale is a ratio between the linear dimension of a
drawn representation of an object and the actual object.

1 : 2

Drawing Actual
 Drawing Scales : Designation

Designation of a scale consists of the word SCALE

followed by the indication of its ratio, as follows

SCALE 1:1 for full size

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

Drawing scale is commonly found in a title block.

Drawing Scales : Standard scale

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
Texts style on the drawing Examples
must have the following
GOOD
2 properties
Not uniform in style.
Legibility
- Shape Not uniform in height.
- Space between letters
- Space between words Not uniformly vertical.

Uniformity Not uniform in

- Size (or text height) thickness of stroke.

- line thickness Inappropriate space

between letters
 Style (this course)

Gothic vertical style.

Begin the sentence, phrase or word with a capital letter.

Text height 2~3 mm.

Space between lines of text is about of text height.

Height of the lower-case letter is about 2/3 of that of a

capital letter.

Line Types
Basic Line Types &Application
Thickness Thick Thin 1. Dimension line
2. Extension line
Visible line 3. Leader line
Style
Continuous Hidden line
Dash
Chain Center line

1. Visible line represent features that can be seen in the current view.
2. Dimension line
Extension line indicate the sizes and location of features.
Leader line

3. Hidden line represent features that can not be seen in the current view.

4. Center line represents symmetry, path of motion, centers of circles,

axis of axisymmetrical parts
