Week - 1 Introduction To Engineering Drawing PDF

Engineers must be able to create sketches, calculate stresses, analyze motions, size parts, and specify materials and production methods. They must make design layouts and supervise drawings and specifications that will control product manufacture, assembly, and maintenance. Engineering drawing is a communication tool and common language of engineering that visually conveys geometry, dimensions, tolerances, material, and surface finish through graphical representation. It is used to fully define engineering item requirements and communicate design information to enable turning ideas into reality.

Introduction to Engineering Drawing


What is/are the role/s of engineers in engineering
drawing?

Engineers and designers must be able to


• create idea sketches
• calculate stresses
• analyze motions
• size parts
• specify materials and production methods
What is/are the role/s of engineers in engineering
drawing?

Engineers and designers must be able to


• make design layouts and supervise the
preparation of drawings and specifications
that will control the numerous details of
product manufacture assembly and
maintenance.
What is Engineering Drawing?

• Also known as:


• Drafting
• Engineering Drafting
• Mechanical drawing
• Mechanical drafting
• Technical drawing and
• Technical drafting
What is Engineering Drawing?

• It is the most important communication tools that


a company can possess.
• It is the common language of engineering and
describes the process of creating drawings for any
engineering or architectural application.
• Engineering drawings require extensive thought
and time to produce.
Engineering Drawing as:

 Visual Language of Industry and Engineering


 Relationship to Artistic Drawing
 Engineering Drawing Software
 Legal Documents
 Media
 Model-based Definition
Visual Language of Industry and Engineering

 It is a graphical language, used to fully and clearly


define requirements for engineering items.
Drawings convey the following critical information:
Geometry
Dimensions
Tolerances
Material
Surface finish
Relationship to Artistic Drawing

 Artistic drawing convey emotion


 Engineering drawing convey information
Legal Documents

 It communicates all the needed information


about "what is wanted" to the people who will
expend resources turning the idea into a
reality.
Media

 Today most engineering drawing is done with


CAD, but pencil and paper have not disappeared.
Model Based-Definition

 Method of transferring information from design


into manufacture.
Modelling and Engineering Drawing Software

 AutoCAD by Autodesk
 CATIA by Dassault Systemes
 Mechanical desktop
 Pro/ENGINEER by Parametric Technology Corporation
 SolidWorks by SolidWorks Corp.
Role of Engineering Drawing

1. Ability to read and prepare engineering drawings.


2. Ability to make free - hand sketching of objects.
3. Power to imagine, analyse and communicate, and
4. Capacity to understand other subjects.
