Engineering Drawing Standards Guide

This document discusses engineering drawing standards and practices. It explains that engineering drawings are used to convey design requirements to others involved in production, manufacturing, and maintenance. Drawings must include sufficient information for cost-effective planning and testing. There are different types of drawings like single-part, collective, and combined drawings. Drawings depict objects using pictorial or orthographic projections, sections, and exploded views. The document also outlines drawing elements like title blocks, numbers, and supplemental diagrams, as well as presentation methods like microfilm. Standards for aeronautical drawings are also referenced.

5 a ENGINEERING DRAWING, DIAGRAMS AND STANDARDS

The purpose of an engineering drawing is to record and convey the designers


requirements to other, interested, people.
The drawing must, therefore, include sufficient information to enable production
planning, manufacture, assembly, testing, inspection and subsequent
maintenance of the particular component or assembly to be achieved in the most
cost-effective manner. So that there can be no misrepresentation of drawings, it
is essential that the person preparing the drawing and those using the drawing
should have a knowledge of the methods of presentation symbols, terms, and
abbreviations, used in the preparation of an engineering drawing.
This section is not intended as a standard for the production of drawings, but
should be regarded as a general guide to drawing procedures and interpretation.

British references
The reference for drawing practices,
in the United Kingdom, is that produced by the British Standards Institution,
(BSI), in their publication BS 308. There are other standards available, which
supplement BS 308, such as the Society of British Aerospace Companies
(SBAC) Technical Specification (TS) 88. Companies, that have design approval
from the CAA or the JAA, can modify these standards to suit their own particular
drawing requirements. They must, however, publish their preferred standards

5.1 TYPES OF DRAWING


The main drawing types are the:
Single-part: unique parts or assemblies
Collective: parts or assemblies of similar shape, but of different dimensions
Combined: complete assemblies, including all individual parts on a single
drawing
Constructional: assembly drawing with sufficient dimensional and other
information to describe the component parts of a construction.
++++++++++++++++++++
5.2 METHODS OF DRAWING SOLID OBJECTS
The two common methods, used to depict components, in
drawings, are by:
Pictorial Projections
Orthographic Projections.

5.2.3 Sectional Views
When it is necessary to show the internal construction or shape of a part, a
sectional view is used. The four main types of sectional views are the:
Revolved Section
Removed Section
Complete Section
Half Section
