Q
How does the ability to read and interpret technical drawings benefit a millwright?
A
- they are needed to understand how a machine is crafted, assembled, and installed.
- allows isolation of a problem area before a system is dismantled
2
Q
List the types of technical drawings used in industry today.
A
- orthographic drawings
— first-angle
— third-angle - pictorial drawings
— isometric
— oblique - schematic diagrams
3
Q
In an orthographic drawing, what direction is the object viewed from in the front elevation and the plan view?
A
- front elevation, the object is viewed from the front
- plan view, the object is viewed from the top or bottom
4
Q
Most often, where do first-angle projection and third-angle projection originate?
A
- first-angle projection is used in Europe
- third-angle projections is used in North America
5
Q
Describe how first-angle projection differs from third-angle projection.
A
- first-angle
— viewing position > object > side elevation - third-angle
— viewing position > side elevation > object
6
Q
Name the views that are usually required in a third-angle orthographic projection drawing.
A
- top (plan)
- front (front elevation)
- side (side elevation)
- sometime auxiliary and sectional views are needed
7
Q
Which view is chosen to be the front view for a technical drawing?
A
- most objects do not have a natural front or side position.
- therefore, it is necessary to determine which side of the object provides the most information about its shape
- this side is used as the front view
8
Q
What are the merits and limitations of pictorial drawings?
A
Merits
- 3D renderings of an object showing height, length and width
- help viewer to visualize the true shape of an object
Limitations
- do not describe the shape of an object either exactly or completely
9
Q
Describe how isometric and oblique drawings are drawn.
A
Isometric
- all lines are drawn either vertically or at 30 degrees to the horizontal
- the lengths along the 30 degrees axes are drawn to full scale
Oblique
- on face is at right angle to the horizontal and the others are at an angle (usually 45 degrees) to the horizontal
- the receding dimensions along the 45 degrees axis are drawn to half scale
10
Q
How is line thickness defined by Canadian standards?
A
- Canadians standards define line thickness as THICK or THIN
- thick lines - twice as thick as thin lines
11
Q
Draw and describe
- construction lines
A
- thin lines used to lay out the various views of an object
- construction lines are eventually overpaid by the object lines
12
Q
Draw and describe
- object lines
A
- thick lines which indicate the visible outline of an object
13
Q
Draw and describe
- hidden lines
A
- show those surfaces and features of the object that are not seen in the chosen views
- they are thin, equally spaced, broken lines
14
Q
Draw and describe
- break lines
A
- used to shorten the view of long uniform sections
15
Q
Draw and describe
- section lines
A
- the parallel diagonal lines (hatch marks) that identify a sectional view of an object in a drawing
16
Q
Draw and describe
- centrelines
A
- drawn as thin, broken lines, with long and short lines spaced alternately
17
Q
Draw and describe
- cutting plane line
A
- offset cutting plane lines are usually if the broken type
- letters placed beside arrows key to the corresponding sectional view
18
Q
Draw and describe
- extension and dimension lines
A
- Extension lines
— thin lines which extend the object lines out to a convenient space for dimensioning
— these lines do not touch the object lines
— if extension lines cross arrowheads or dimension lines, a break in the extension line is permitted - Dimension lines
— thin lines which indicate the distance between the extension lines. They terminate with arrowheads which touch the extension lines.
— these lines give the objects measured dimensions; height, width and length
— where one or more dimension lines share an extension line, the dimension lines should run parallel to each other
19
Q
What are the two methods used to dimension objects?
A
- Aligned method
— all dimension figures except angular dimensions are written parallel to the dimension lines - Unidirectional dimensioning
— all figures are written parallel to the bottom of the drafting paper
20
Q
What two types of dimensions are found on technical drawings?
A
- Overall dimensions
— indicate overall length, width, or height of an object - Detail dimensions
— give size and location of any feature or detail which is not overall length, height or width
21
Q
State the rules for dimensioning technical drawings
A
- only one form of dimension is used on a single drawing; either aligned or unidirectional
- technical drawings are dimensioned so that the full-size dimensions are specified on he drawing regardless of scale
- in metric drawings, dimensions are shown in millimetres without their units (1100, not 1100mm)
- the position and size of angles are shown
- when metric values are less than one, a zero is shown before the decimal point (0.5, not .5)
- whenever possible, to avoid confusion, dimensions are placed close to features being shown and outside the objects outline
- dimensions of a feature are shown only once
- when space is limited, dimension figures are placed in one or the other way
— inside the dimension line with the arrowheads outside the extension lines
— with the figures and arrowheads outside the extension lines

What are the purposes of sectional view?
- used to show an aspect of the object which is otherwise too complicated to show with the conventional top, front, and side views
- show differences in materials
27
Describe the difference between full-section and half-section views.
Full section - use a cutting plane through the whole object giving the impression that the object has been cut in half
Half section - remove only a certain portion of the drawing. If a half section views gives all the information needed to understand the drawing, hen a full section drawing is not given
28

-
29

34
Describe how the broken-out sectional view in figure 22 helps in the understanding of the object.
- shows X-ray of interior dimensions
35
What are the reasons for using auxiliary views?
| Figure 23
- used to detail sloping (or inclining) surfaces which cannot be depicted in normally orthographic views
- clearly shows the shape of the object and gives its true dimensions
36
Which of the regular views is the front view in figure 23?
-
37
Why would and object have two or more auxiliary views?
- occasionally an object cannot be completely described in one auxiliary view, so an additional auxiliary view may be needed
38
What are the merits of the exploded view in figure 24?
- exploded views take a very complicated drawing and separates it along s common axis where possible
- the viewer sees exactly how a group of parts fit together
39

-
40
Define tolerance.
- the total permissible/allowable variance of the basic size of a component
