U1- L12 DRAFTING A form of graphic communication –Drawings are often the best way to describe or show our ideas A universal language –Symbols (lines and figures) have specific meanings –Accurately describes the shape, size, material, finish, and fabrication of a product –Standardized over most of the world (possible to interpret drawings made in other countries) Manual drafting – paper and tools Computer-Aided Design and Drafting (CADD)

TOOLS Sharpened Pencil - different line weights Drawing Board –Smooth, flat surface T-Square –“Head” and “Blade” –Horizontal lines ONLY –NEVER for vertical lines or for other uses Triangles –30-60 degree triangle –45 degree triangle Compass - circles U1- L12

TOOLS U1- L12

DRAFTING HORIZONTAL LINES –Hold t-square TIGHT against board –PULL your pencil, DO NOT push it –Hold pencil at slight angle to paper (60 degrees) –Twist your pencil to keep a consistent point –DO NOT allow pencil to go under t-square VERTICAL LINES –Hold triangle TIGHT against t-square –Hold t-square TIGHT against board U1- L12
