INTRODUCTION
Thi s drawi ng standards manual establ i shes the conventi ons to be adhered to by
engi neeri ng and drafti ng personnel i n the preparati on, revi si on, and compl eti on of
engi neeri ng drawi ngs. Thi s manual sets forth the mi ni mum requi rements acceptabl e at
GSFC for the preparati on of engi neeri ng drawi ngs for fl i ght hardware and ground
support systems. The requi rements speci fi ed herei n are essenti al to the standardi zati on
of practi ces and to a uni form i nterpretati on of drawi ngs.
A system, payl oad, or component assembl y shal l be compl etel y defi ned by means of
drawi ngs, i ncl udi ng l i sts, schemati cs, wi ri ng di agrams, and speci fi cati ons, to ensure that
components fabri cated are i n accordance wi th the desi gn. The documentati on
i nformati on shal l serve as a permanent record.
Fl i ght hardware shal l be fabri cated i n accordance wi th the approved desi gn documents.
These documents shal l refl ect the characteri sti cs and acceptance cri teri a for al l
materi al s, component/parts, subsystems, and the compl ete system. The acceptance
cri teri a for parts and materi al s shal l be speci fi ed by standard speci fi cati ons when
appl i cabl e.
Engi neeri ng drawi ngs are defi ned as those drawi ngs that communi cate the requi rements
for the manufacture of the end-product i tems, thei r assembl y, and thei r i nstal l ati on i n the
end product.
The engi neeri ng drawi ngs prepared by GSFC desi gn personnel or contractors on GSFC
drawi ng format usi ng GSFC drawi ng numbers shal l be known as Government Desi gn
Acti vi ty Drawi ngs. Parts made to these drawi ngs typi cal l y woul d be manufactured
through the Fabri cati on Engi neeri ng Branch, Engi neeri ng Servi ces Di vi si on, GSFC.
Contractor Desi gn Acti vi ty Drawi ngs (whi ch are a company's drawi ngs beari ng the
company name, address, federal code i denti fi cati on, and drawi ng number) shoul d be used
when the company i s desi gni ng and del i veri ng the fi ni shed product i n accordance wi th
the terms of a NASA contract.
The Desi gn Acti vi ty shal l be defi ned as an acti vi ty havi ng responsi bi l i ty for the desi gn
of an i tem or system. The acti vi ty may be a government enti ty, a contractor, a vendor, or
another organi zati on such as a uni versi ty.
Al though general l y i n accordance wi th the Department of Defense and i ndustry practi ces
and procedures, thi s drawi ng standards manual does contai n speci fi c di fferences and
excepti ons to Engi neeri ng Drawi ng Pract i ces, MI L-STD-100E. Thi s manual , whi l e not
i ntended as a manual of i nstructi on i n the basi c pri nci pl es of drafti ng, does set forth the
mi ni mum requi rements acceptabl e at the GSFC. One of those requi rements i s that
persons engaged i n the preparati on of drawi ngs shal l have a thorough understandi ng of
the fundamental s of drafti ng and geometri cal di mensi oni ng and tol eranci ng (i n
accordance wi th ANSI Y 14.5M-1982, Di mensi oni ng and Tol eranci ng) i n order to
produce i nterpretabl e drawi ngs.

1. I denti fyi ng noun or noun phrase.
2. The most si gni fi cant modi fi er or modi fyi ng phrase.
3. The next most si gni fi cant modi fi er or modi fyi ng phrase.
The noun or noun phrase establ i shes a basi c concept of an i tem. The
modi fi ers serve to narrow the area of concept establ i shed by the basi c name.
A modi fi er i s separated from the noun or noun phrase by a comma and from
any precedi ng modi fi er by a comma. The type desi gnator and/or any
addi ti onal modi fi ers requi red to further i denti fy an i tem are separated from
the fi rst part of the ti tl e by a dash. Where appl i cabl e, the word ASSEMBLY
shal l be used as the l ast word of the noun phrase.

of precedence).
a. Uppercase Gothi c l etters shal l be used.
b. Abbrevi ati ons for word combi nati ons (e.g., MMCMaxi mum Materi al
Condi ti on) shal l be used as such and shal l not be separated for use si ngl y.
Si ngl e abbrevi ati ons may be combi ned when necessary.
c. The same abbrevi ati on shal l be used for al l tenses, the possessi ve case and the
si ngul ar and pl ural forms of a gi ven word.
d. Abbrevi ati ons shoul d be used onl y to save space or ti me, but never at the

3. DRAFTING PRACTICES
3.1. Gener al
These drafti ng practi ces are to be empl oyed i n the preparati on of drawi ngs by
GSFC personnel to achi eve commonal i ty throughout and resul t i n l egi bl e
reproducti ons at the l east cost from ori gi nal drawi ngs.
Drawi ngs must be compl ete and unambi guous i n i nterpretati on. Compl ete
drawi ngs contai n or make reference to al l data necessary for fabri cati ng and
i nstal l i ng the part and, when appl i cabl e, the necessary test requi rements,
procurement requi rements, and source.
Thi rd-angl e orthographi c proj ecti on shal l be used for mechani cal engi neeri ng
drawi ngs. (Certai n di agrams, schemati cs, etc., are excepted.) Al though other
types of proj ecti on, such as i sometri c, perspecti ve, etc., are not prohi bi ted, thei r
use must be confi ned to an auxi l i ary vi ew on a drawi ng of a compl ex part when
such a vi ew shal l ai d i n vi sual i zi ng the part.
Drawi ngs need not have three vi ews, (i .e., one or two vi ews are permi ssi bl e for
obj ects that can be compl etel y defi ned). Compl ementary notes or di mensi ons are
acceptabl e i n pl ace of the addi ti onal vi ews. The rul e shal l be that onl y those
vi ews shal l be drawn that are necessary to convey the requi red characteri sti cs of
the part. Vi ews, di mensi ons, etc., shal l not extend i nto the margi ns of the
drawi ng.
3.2. Li nes
Acceptabl e qual i ty of reproducti ons i s dependent on the densi ty and uni formi ty of
l i ne work (and l etteri ng). Types of l i nes descri bed herei n are merel y l i ne conven-
ti ons, but i n every case, each type of l i ne shal l be opaque and of uni form wi dth
and shal l be used on al l drawi ngs other than di agrams, such as schemati cs, etc.
3. 2. 1. I nk Li nes and Pl ot t ed Li nes

9. 3. 1. Pr esent at i on of Comput er -Gener at ed Dat a
A computer graphi cs or CAD program i s used to create el ectroni c
data fi l e drawi ngs. A paper ori gi nal i s produced on whi ch drawi ng

now the acti ve ori gi nal and i s fi l ed wi th the confi gurati on manager
(CM), al ong wi th the el ectroni c data fi l e whi ch must be used for
future changes.
When a revi si on i s needed, an Engi neeri ng Order (EO) paper

changes i ncorporated, dated, and i ni ti al ed, shal l repl ace the
previ ous ori gi nal i n the CM fi l e. The new ori gi nal shal l be so
stamped, dated, and si gned by the CM representati ve.
CAD data fi l es are to be stored on medi a that are compati bl e wi th
currentl y used GSFC systems. These medi a i ncl ude mul ti track reel s
of computer tape or fl exi bl e di sks (3-1/2 or 5-1/4 doubl e si de,

10. 2. 2. 2. Uni t Roundi ng
a. General Roundi ng Rul es
When a fi gure i s to be rounded to fewer di gi ts than the total
number avai l abl e and the fi rst di gi t di scarded i s l ess than 5, the
l ast di gi t retai ned shoul d not be changed. For exampl e,
3.46325, i f rounded to three deci mal pl aces (i .e., 4 si gni fi cant
di gi ts or si mpl y 4 di gi ts), woul d be 3.463; i f rounded to three
si gni fi cant di gi ts, 3.46.
When the fi rst di gi t di scarded i s greater than 5, or i f i t i s a 5
fol l owed by at l east one di gi t other than 0, the l ast di gi t
retai ned shoul d be i ncreased by one uni t. For exampl e 8.37652,
i f rounded to four di gi ts, woul d be 8.377; i f rounded to three
di gi ts, 8.38.
When the fi rst di gi t di scarded i s exactl y 5, fol l owed onl y by
zeros, the l ast di gi t retai ned (i .e., the di gi t precedi ng the 5,
underl i ned i n the exampl es bel ow) shoul d be rounded upward i f
i t i s an odd number, but no adj ustment made i f i t i s an even
number. For exampl e, 4.365, when rounded to three si gni fi cant
di gi ts, becomes 4.36. The number 4.355 woul d al so round to
the same val ue, 4.36, i f rounded to three si gni fi cant di gi ts.
Thi s procedure i s known as odd-even roundi ng.
Exampl e: Round 46.02500 to two deci mal pl aces.
Answer: 46.02
Exampl e: Round 41.27500 to two deci mal pl aces.
Answer: 41.28
General l y, the accuracy of the number of si gni fi cant di gi ts to
whi ch a val ue i s to be rounded must be known before a
conversi on factor i s used. I f thi s i s not known, then the best
rul e of thumb i s to round the fi nal val ue to the number of
si gni fi cant di gi ts correspondi ng to the l east number of
si gni fi cant di gi ts of the ori gi nal , unconverted numbers. For
exampl e, to convert 11.4 feet (ft) to meters (m):
11.4 x 0.3048 = 3.47472, whi ch rounds to 3.47 meters. Nei ther
the conversi on factor nor the quanti ty shal l be rounded before
performi ng the mul ti pl i cati on, because accuracy woul d be
reduced. For converti ng i nches (i n) to mi l l i meters (mm), whi ch
woul d general l y be the case i n drawi ngs, the rul e of thumb i s to
round to one l ess deci mal pl ace than the ori gi nal i nch
di mensi on. When converti ng from mi l l i meters to i nches, the
rul e i s to round to two more deci mal pl aces than the ori gi nal
val ue.
Exampl e: Convert 3.5748 i nches to mi l l i meters.
3.5748 x 25.4 = 90.79992 Answer: 90.800 mm
Exampl e: Convert 1.625 i nches to mi l l i meters.
1.625 x 25.4 = 41.275 Answer: 41.28 mm
Exampl e: Convert 101.83 mi l l i meters to i nches.
101.83/25.4 = 4.009055118 Answer: 4.0091 i nches
b. Roundi ng Basi c Di mensi ons
To convert basi c di mensi ons of drawi ngs from i nches to
mi l l i meters, the converted val ue shal l be rounded to three
deci mal pl aces si nce thi s shal l provi de a maxi mum conversi on
error of 0.00002 i nch. I n converti ng basi c di mensi ons from
mi l l i meters to i nches, the val ue shal l be rounded to fi ve deci mal
pl aces, gi vi ng a maxi mum conversi on error of 0.000005 i nch.


91
c. Roundi ng Tol eranced Di mensi ons
The use of the exact rel ati on 1 i nch = 25.4 mi l l i meters general l y
produces more than the requi red number of si gni fi cant di gi ts.
To round both the di mensi on and the tol erances, fi rst convert
the val ues to the necessary uni ts. When converti ng from i nches
to mi l l i meters, mul ti pl y by 25.4 for a product; when converti ng
from mi l l i meters to i nches, di vi de by 25.4 for a quoti ent. Next,
take the total tol erance (i .e., the total val ue between the
maxi mum and mi ni mum l i mi ts) and from the respecti ve tabl e
bel ow fi nd the correct number of deci mal pl aces. Then round
both the di mensi on and the tol erances to the number of deci mal
pl aces i ndi cated. However, care must be taken so that the
rounded tol erances fal l i nsi de the ori gi nal tol erance val ues as
expl ai ned i n paragraph 10.2.2.2.d., Preci si on Roundi ng, on
page 92.

35.2298 0.0762
The total ori gi nal tol erance i s 0.006, whi ch l i es between 0.004
and 0.04, and accordi ng to the fi rst tabl e, shoul d be rounded to
0.XX mi l l i meter.
Answer: 35.23 0.08 mm
d. Preci si on Roundi ng (I nsi de)
When converted, tol erances must never exceed the ori gi nal l y
speci fi ed l i mi ts (as i n the case where the converted parts are
to be i nspected by gages made for the ori gi nal parts). The
round-off must be such that the new di mensi ons shal l l i e i nsi de
the ori gi nal tol erance l i mi ts. Thi s may be accompl i shed by
converti ng the maxi mum and mi ni mum l i mi ts exactl y, and then
roundi ng the upper l i mi t to the next l ower val ue and roundi ng
the l ower l i mi t to the next hi gher val ue.
Exampl e: Convert 0.877 from i nches to mi l l i meters wi thout
0.874
vi ol ati on of the ori gi nal l i mi ts:
0.877 x 25.4 = 22.2758; 0.874 x 25.4 = 22.1996
The total ori gi nal tol erance i s 0.003, whi ch l i es between 0.0004
and 0.004 and, accordi ng to the precedi ng tabl e, shoul d be
rounded to 0.XXX mi l l i meters.
Answer: 22.275 mm
22.200 mm
Note that 22.2758 i s not rounded to 22.276 mm because i t woul d

APPENDIX A. DESIGN REVIEW DOs AND DON' Ts
Al l drawi ngs shoul d adhere to the fol l owi ng gui del i nes:
a. Di mensi on part s correct l y. Di mensi oni ng shal l be to pri mary or mati ng
surfaces. Unwanted bui l dup of tol erances between mati ng surfaces shoul d be
avoi ded. Di mensi ons to i nsi gni fi cant theoreti cal center l i nes can resul t i n
mi stakes by the machi ni st, as wel l as the i nspectors, because of the mul ti pl e
addi ti ons and subtracti ons requi red to l ocate the feature i n rel ati on to other
features. Whenever possi bl e, di mensi ons shoul d be l eft to ri ght and bottom to
top (Quadrant I , al l posi ti ve numbers) or from datums establ i shed by desi gn
requi rements.
b. Do not det ai l wel dment part s separat el y. Si nce each part may be fabri cated
by a di fferent manufacturer, the requi red tol eranci ng typi cal l y cannot be met,
resul ti ng i n del ays and addi ti onal cost. Di fferent parts of a wel dment shoul d
be drawn on an I nseparabl e Assembl y Drawi ng (Fi gure 20 on page 44) so that
the overal l assembl y tol eranci ng i s the responsi bi l i ty of a si ngl e manufacturer.
c. Impl i ed dat ums are no l onger al l owed. Whenever possi bl e, sel ect datums
that are functi onal to the part. A datum shoul d al ways be assi gned to a
physi cal surface or a feature of si ze. When usi ng true posi ti on di mensi oni ng
(basi c di mensi ons), the di mensi ons from the feature to other edges and i ts
perpendi cul ari ty rel ati onshi p to a surface must be i denti fi ed wi th datum
l etters. The combi ned usage of posi ti onal tol eranci ng wi th pl us and mi nus
methods as rel ated to basi c di mensi oned patterns i s di sconti nued and repl aced
wi th the composi te tol eranci ng method. Refer to ANSI Y 14.5M-1982,
Di mensi oni ng and Tol eranci ng.
Note:
Al though there i s no requi rement that al l hol es be true posi ti oned, i t i s
preferred that hol e patterns be true posi ti oned, regardl ess of use, si nce
tol eranci ng speci fi ed i n the true posi ti on bl ock i s the control l i ng factor.
d. Drawi ngs f or part s produced usi ng t empl at es must be properl y
di mensi oned and t ol eranced. Lack of di mensi oni ng may resul t i n i nadequate
stress anal ysi s, fi t checki ng, and/or i nspecti on. Engi neeri ng and tool i ng
drawi ngs shoul d be di mensi oned al i ke and rel ated to one another. Refer to
tool i ng requi red notes i n Di mensi on Notes, paragraph 2.4.4.1 on page 16.
e. Use t he l i st of mat eri al f ormat correct l y. The assembl y number does not get
an i tem number. Whi l e the materi al i s properl y an i tem on the Li st of
Materi al , on end product drawi ngs, there i s no need to speci fy ei ther the
drawi ng number or an i tem number i n the Li st of Materi al i f there i s onl y one
part or materi al . An i tem wi th the same materi al and speci fi cati on requi res
onl y one i tem number and A/R (as requi red) as a quanti ty. The vari ous
materi al si zes requi red are i ndi cated on the fi el d of the drawi ng, as i s the case
of i nseparabl e assembl i es (wel dments, ri veted parts, etc.). Dash numbers are
requi red onl y when there i s a shown (odd number) and opposi te (even
number), when there i s more than one assembl y versi on, or when the drawi ng
i s of a tabul ated type (refer to types of drawi ngs). Mul ti detai l drawi ngs are
not al l owed (refer to Detai l Drawi ng, paragraph 4.3 on page 41 for
expl anati on).
f. Do not use SK ( short f or sket ch) on any drawi ng t hat i s used t o
manuf act ure a part . Use onl y GSFC drawi ng numbers when usi ng the GSFC
drawi ng format; contractor drawi ng numbers are used on the contractor's
drawi ng format. The Mechani cal Engi neeri ng Branch does not check or gi ve
approval for drawi ngs produced on contractor format. Contracts shoul d
speci fy that the contractor shal l suppl y copi es of company speci fi cati ons when
usi ng contractor formats.
g. Speci f y l ow- out gassi ng mat eri al s. Use l ow-outgassi ng fi l m l ubri cants for
space fl i ght hardware where di sassembl y i s l i kel y and/or gal l i ng of l i ke
materi al s i s possi bl e. Refer to NASA RP-1124, November 1990 (or l ater),
Out gassi ng Dat a f or Sel ect i ng Spacecraf t Mat eri al s, or to Secti on 10,
paragraph 10.6.1, page 95 of thi s manual , Outgassi ng of Spacecraft
Materi al s.
h. Speci f y t he i dent i f i cat i on of part s. To mai ntai n traceabi l i ty, al l parts shoul d
be i denti fi ed by i nk stampi ng wi th the GSFC drawi ng number, rather than by
baggi ng and taggi ng. Use onl y l ow-outgassi ng i nk (speci fy ori gi nal source)
and do not overcoat. Do not steel stamp engrave, or etch on fl i ght hardware
to prevent materi al stress concentrati ons. I denti cal parts wi th di fferent uses
shoul d be seri al i zed.
i . Speci f y t he ori gi nal manuf act urer source of suppl y and compl et e address.
Li st the ori gi nal source and compl ete address i n the General Notes, and fl ag
them to the Li st of Materi al or Parts Li st.
j . Speci f y regardl ess of f eat ure si ze when appl yi ng t o f i xed l ocat i ons.
Posi ti onal tol erance shoul d be speci fi ed as Regardl ess of Feature Si ze when
appl yi ng to thread i nserts, tapped hol e l ocati ons, and sl i p fi t desi gns.
k. Speci f y l oose t ol erances where possi bl e. The use of the true posi ti on method
of di mensi oni ng shoul d not be mi staken for a ti ghter tol eranci ng control
system. True posi ti on tol eranci ng can be as l oose as the appl i cati on shal l
al l ow. Loose tol erances make i nspecti on easi er and al l ow fewer rej ected
parts.
l . Speci f y radi i and chamf ers. Edge radi i , i n-pl ane corner radi i , and protrusi on
chamfers must be speci fi ed to space fl i ght standard si ze requi rements. Refer
to J ohnson Space Center document NSTS 07700, Vol ume XI V, Appendi x 9,
System Descri pti on and Desi gn Data I ntervehi cul ar Acti vi ti es, Secti on 5.5,
Crew Equi pment Safety, for si ze requi rements. Speci fy radi i at the bottom
of counterbores to prevent sharp corners, whi ch coul d devel op i nto stress
cracks, parti cul arl y on fl i ght parts.
m. Speci f y i nt erf erence range onl y f or press f i t s. Onl y the amount .000X to
.000X i nterference shoul d be stated next to the i tem cal l out.
n. Speci f y as f ew ref erence di mensi ons as possi bl e. Too many reference
di mensi ons make checki ng, i nspecti on, and cost esti mati ng more di ffi cul t.
o. Speci f y proj ect ed t ol erance zone di mensi ons where appl i cabl e. Add a
proj ected tol erance zone di mensi on to the true posi ti on tol erance when
speci fyi ng threaded i nserts, tapped hol es, or dowel pi ns. Refer to ANSI
Y 14.5M-1982.

p. Speci f y f ast ener t orque requi rement s. These requi rements may refer to a
proj ect-devel oped speci fi cati on number, or fastener si ze and torque
requi rements can be tabul ated i n the General Notes and fl agged to i tem cal l -
outs i n the fi el d of the drawi ng.
q. Avoi d doubl e f i xat i ons. A pattern of countersunk hol es i n one part and
tapped hol es i n the mati ng part l eaves no tol eranci ng for ei ther part, resul ti ng
i n bendi ng stresses i n the screw. I f the si tuati on shal l al l ow, counterbore one
of the parts and use a pan head screw. I f not, dri l l out the second part and use
a nut i n pl ace of tapped hol es. Matched dri l l i ng shoul d be avoi ded because of
l oss of i nterchangeabi l i ty.
r. Avoi d severe gal l i ng bet ween l i ke mat eri al s. To avoi d severe gal l i ng i n
