Term
Extension Line
Definition
Lines used to establish the extent of a dimension.
Term
Object Lines
Definition
Thick lines (0.32 inches) that show the visible edges of an object.
Term
Hidden Lines
Definition
Lines used to show interior detail that is not visible from the outside of the part.
Term
Center Lines
Definition
Lines (0.16 inches) that define the center of arcs, circles or symmetrical parts.
Term
Construction Lines
Definition
Very lightly drawn lines used as guides to help draw all other lines and shapes properly. Usually erased after being used.
Term
Break Lines
Definition
Freehand drawn lines that show where a part is broken to reveal detail behind the part or to shorten a long continuous part.
Term
Section Lines
Definition
Lines used to define where there is material after a part of the object is cut away.
Term
Cutting Plane Lines
Definition
Lines used to designate where apart has been cut away to see detail.
Term
Dimension Lines
Definition
Lines that are used to show distance. Arrows are drawn on the ends to show where the lines start and end.
Term
Extension Lines
Definition
Lines used to show where a dimension starts and stops on an object. Used with dimension lines to properly dimension an object. The line is 1/16 of an inch away from the part as to not get confused with object lines.
Term
Leader Lines
Definition
Used to show dimensions of arcs, circles, and to help show detail. Ar arrow head is used to point to the part you are dimensioning and the line comes off the arrow point at a 45 degree angle. At the end of this line a horizontal line is drawn with a note at the end telling information about what is being pointed at.
Term
Phantom Lines
Definition
Use to identify alternative positions that a part may take up.
Term
Object Line
Definition
Which has precedence, a hidden line or an object line?
Term
Hidden Line
Definition
Which has precedence, a hidden line or a center line?
Term
Object Line
Definition
Which has precedence, a center line or an object line?
Term
Cutting Plane Line
Definition
Which has precedence, a center line or a cutting plane line?
Term
To convey ideas.
Definition
What is the main purpose of sketching?
Term
Practice
Definition
What must you do in order to be a good sketcher?
Term
Vertical, Horizontal and Inclined.
Definition
What are the three line types?
Term
Rise over run.
Definition
How do you find the slope of an inclined line?
Term
1. Draw intersecting lines.
2. Mark off equal distances.
3. Draw a line between these marks.
4. Draw center mark.
5. Make the arc by connecting the
two ends through the center mark.
Definition
List the 5 steps in sketching an arc.
Term
1. Draw intersecting axes to setup the diameter.
2. Square in the diameter.
3. Sketch diagonals.
4. Identify triangle centers.
5. Make four arcs by connecting the
two ends through the center mark in each of the four triangles.
Definition
List the 5 steps in sketching an circle.
Term
Size
Definition
What are length, width, height, and distance related to?
Term
Proportion
Definition
"If two objects are five feet apart in real life, then those two objects must appear to be five feet apart in your sketch." What term describes this?
Term
1. Using a pencil to measure.
2. Boxing in the sketch.
Definition
What two techniques can you use to create correct size and proportion?
Term
Perspective
Definition
A view of an object created with one or more points vanishing to the horizon.
Term
Pictorial Sketches
Definition
Sketches that show height, width, and depth all in one view.
Term
Isometric
Definition
A drawing projected so that the plane of projection of a three-dimensional drawing forms equal angles (120 degrees) to each of the three axes of the object.
Term
Oblique
Definition
A form of pictorial sketch in which two axes are at right angles to each other (one vertical, one horizontal) and the depth axis is at an oblique angle.
Term
Shading
Definition
An area of relatively dark tone or close lines, dots, or hatch marks that produces darkness or shadow in a drawing or picture.
Term
1) Straight line
2) Stipple
Definition
What are the two main types of shading?
Term
Stipple Shading
Definition
Shading that uses dots to produce darknesses or shadows.
Term
Multiview Drawings
Definition
What is another name for orthographic drawings?
Term
Third Angle
Definition
What is the standard angle of projection in the United States when using orthographic drawings?
Term
Six
Definition
How many views are possible in orthographic projection?
Term
Front, top, and right
Definition
What are the most common views used on a drawing sheet in orthographic drawings?
Term
1. Most natural position or use
2. Shows best shape and characteristic contours
3. Longest dimensions
4. Fewest hidden lines
5. Most stable and natural position
6. Relationships of other views
Definition
What characteristics should you look at when selecting your front?
