Pattern Development Flashcards
NTS means
Not to scale
From your perspective
Has a vanishing point
Artistic and realistic
Perspective drawing
Shows front, top and right sides
Front surface is true size and shape of object
Uses foreshortening
Oblique drawings
Equal measure
Always at 30 degree angles
Isometric drawings
Used two of more views
Look directly at one side of the object
Orthographic projection
Arrowheads
3-4 mm long
Used to add notes or information
Leader lines
Less cluttered
Easy to read
Not all dimensions necessary
—-
Disadvantage
Cumulative error
Mistakes in math
Conventional dimensioning
Risk of cumulative error eliminated
Need for math eliminated
——-
Disadvantage
Takes up lots of space
Baseline dimensioning
Combines advantages of both baseline and conventional systems
Eliminates need for math
Running dimension
8 degrees 20’ 30”
8 degrees, 20 minutes, 30 seconds
Used to draw horizontal lines
T square
Draws small circles and arcs
Used in one direction only
Compass / divider
Parts of a circle
Chord
Diameter
Radius
Sector
Arc
Segment
Semi circle
Tangent line
Sector
Common center (circle)
Concentric
Different centres (circle)
Eccentric
Divide into two equal parts
Bisect
Drawing using only a ruler and compass
Angular construction
How many steps around the circumference with the radius does it take to complete a full circle
6
Common tool that is useful at finding the centre of a circle
Carpenter square
The space/gap used for an extension line
2 mm
4 dimensioning methods
Conventional
Baseline
Running
Number placement
Set square
Triangles
90-60-30 set square
30 degrees - 60 degrees
45 degree set square
90-45 set
A straight line not through the center touching the circumference with both ends
Chord
Any portion of the circumference
Arc
A portion of a circle bound by an arc and a chord
Segment
A portion of a circle bound by an arc and two radius lines
Sector
A line touching the circumference at one point only
Tangent line
