Learning Objectives:
After reading this INFORMATION SHEET, YOU MUST be able to know:

INTERPRET
You have heard the saying, “A picture is worth a thousand words”. This
statement is particularly true in regards to technical drawings.
It would be almost impossible for an engineer, designer, or architect to
describe in words the shape, size, and relationship of a complex object.
Therefore, drawings have become the universal language used by engineers,
designers, technicians, as well as craftsmen, to communicate the
Information necessary to build, assemble and service the products of
industry.
It is Important to remember, as you study Print Reading, that you are
learning to communicate with the graphic language used by Industry: Lines
are part of that language.
Since technical drawings are made of lines, it is logical that the first step in
learning to “read” a drawing is to learn the meaning of each kind of line.
Generally, there are 11 basic types of lines. Each kind of line has a definite
form and “weight”. Weight refers to line thickness or width. When combined
in a drawing, lines provide part of the Information needed to understand the
print.
Being able to interpret a blueprint and accurately build objects is a needed
skill to become successful in all trade crafts. It is a skill, like many others
you will learn, and it will take time and practice to fully understand and
become proficient.

Object Line

A visible line, or object line is a thick continuous line, used to outline the
visible edges or contours of an object.

Issued by:
INTERPRET

Hidden Line
A hidden line, also known as a hidden object line is a medium weight
line, made of short dashes about 1/8” long with 1/16”gaps, to show edges,
surfaces and corners which cannot be seen. Sometimes they are used to
make a drawing easier to understand. Often they are omitted in an isometric
view.

Section Line
Section lines are used to show the cut surfaces of an object in section views.
They are fine, dark lines. Various types of section lines may indicate the type
of material cut by the cutting plane line.
Center Line
Center lines are used to indicate the centers of holes, arcs, and symmetrical
objects. They are very thin (size), long-short-long kinds of lines.

Issued by:
INTERPRET
Dimension Line
Dimension lines are thin and are used to show the actual size of an object.
There are arrowheads at both end that terminate at the extension lines.

Extension Line
Extension lines are also thin lines, showing the limits of dimensions.
Dimension line arrowheads touch extension lines.
Leader Line
Leaders are more thin lines used to point to an area of a drawing requiring a
note for explanation. They are preferably drawn at a 45° angles.

Cutting Plane Line
A cutting plane line (very heavy) helps to show the internal shape at a part
or assembly by slicing through the object.
Break Line

Issued by:
INTERPRET
There are three kinds of break lines used in drawings. They are used to
remove, or ‘break out” part of a drawing for clarity, and also to shorten
objects which have the same shape throughout their length and may be too
long to place on the drawing.
Short and long break lines are used for flat surfaces. Cylindrical are used on
rods, dowels, etc.

Phantom Line
Phantom lines are long-short-short-long lines most often used to show the
travel or movement of an object or a part in alternate positions. It can also
be used to show adjacent objects or features.
Border Line
Borderlines are very thick, continuous lines used to show the boundary of
the drawing or to separate different objects drawn on one sheet. They are
also used to separate the title block form the rest of the drawing.

A. AMERICAN WELDING SOCIETY (AWS)
The American Welding Society (AWS) is a non-
profit organization dedicated to advancing the science,
technology, and application of welding and allied joining and
cutting processes, including brazing, soldering, and thermal
spraying. The organization is headquartered
in Doral, Florida, but also conducts events and individual
section and district meetings throughout the United States
and in international locations. The organization is perhaps
best known for its code and certification procedures, which
provide industry standards for the welding and joining of metals, plastics and other
materials. Through their publications, internet forums, member services, local and
national events, educational resources, networking activities, and certification
procedures, AWS keeps welding professionals and those interested in materials
science up to date with the most current advances and procedures in the industry.
As of September 2012, the society contains about 68,000 members, most within the
United States.

D 1.1 Structural Welding Code – Steel
This code covers the welding requirements for any type of welded structure
made from the commonly used carbon and low-alloy constructional steels. Sections
1 to 8 constitute a body of rules for the regulation of welding in steel construction.
There are 10 normative and 12 informative annexes in this coded. A commentary of
the code is included with the document.
AWS Welding Symbols
The welding symbols used today are considered shorthand for the welder.
Developing a clear means of communication between the designing engineer and
the welder building the project. The American Welding Society (AWS) has
developed a standard set of symbols to be used for this purpose. Both the designing
engineer and the welder use these symbols without need for further communication.
The Welding Symbol
1. The welding symbol is made up of three parts.
a. The Tail
b. Reference Line
c. The Arrow
2. The Reference Line

a. The reference line is the main foundation for welding symbols used
in blueprints.
b. Anything written above the reference line itself indicates a weld on
the other side of where the arrow points.
c. Anything written below the reference line itself indicates a weld on
the same side as the arrow points.
Other Side Other Side

Arrow Side Arrow Side
d. Additional reference lines are used to present a sequence of welds

or operations to be performed. Sometimes it is necessary to
prepare the joint before welding, this will be defined in the welding
symbol. Additional references can be made in two ways, fist
drawing another reference line or stacking symbols.

B. AMERICAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS (ASME)
ASME, founded as the American Society of
Mechanical Engineers, is a professional
association that, in its own words, "promotes the art,
science, and practice of multidisciplinary
engineering and allied sciences around the globe"
via "continuing education, training and professional
development, codes and standards, research,
conferences and publications, government relations, and other forms of
outreach." ASME is thus an engineering society, a standards organization,
a research and development organization, a lobbyingorganization, a provider of
training and education, and a non-profit organization. Founded as an engineering
society focused onmechanical engineering in North America, ASME is today
multidisciplinary and global.
ASME has over 130,000 members in 158 countries worldwide.
ASME was founded in 1880 by Alexander Lyman Holley, Henry Rossiter
Worthington, John Edison Sweet and Matthias N. Forney in response to numerous
steam boiler pressure vessel failures.Known for setting codes and standards for
mechanical devices, ASME conducts one of the world's largest technical publishing
operations,holds numerous technical conferences and hundreds ofprofessional
development courses each year, and sponsors numerous outreach and educational
programs.
C. AMERICAN PETROLEUM INSTITUTE (API)
This standard covers the gas and arc welding of butt,
fillet,and socket welds in carbon and low-alloy steel piping
used inthe compression, pumping, and transmission of code
petroleum,petroleum products, fuel gases, carbon dioxide,
andnitrogen and, where applicable, covers welding on
distributionsystems. It applies to both new construction and
in-servicewelding.The welding may be done by a shielded
metal-arcwelding, submerged arc welding, gas tungsten-arc
welding,gas metal-arc welding, flux-cored arc welding,
plasma arcwelding, oxyacetylene welding, or flash butt welding processor by a
combination of these processes using a manual, semiautomatic,or automatic welding
technique or a combination ofthese techniques. The welds may be produced by
position orroll welding or by a combination of position and roll welding.
This standard also covers the procedures for radiographic,magnetic particle,
liquid penetrant, and ultrasonic testing aswell as the acceptance standards to be
applied to productionwelds tested to destruction or inspected by
radiographic,magnetic particle, liquid penetrant, ultrasonic, and visual
testingmethods.

D. INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR STANDARDS (ISO)

ISO (International Organization for Standardization) is the world’s largest
developer of voluntary International Standards. International Standards give state of
the art specifications for products, services and good practice, helping to make
industry more efficient and effective. Developed through global consensus, they help
to break down barriers to international trade.
The ISO story began in 1946 when delegates from 25 countries met at the
Institute of Civil Engineers in London and decided to create a new international
organization ‘to facilitate the international coordination and unification of industrial
standards’. In February 1947 the new organisation, ISO, officially began operations.
Because 'International Organization for Standardization' would have different
acronyms in different languages (IOS in English, OIN in French for Organisation
internationale de normalisation), our founders decided to give it the short form ISO.
ISO is derived from the Greek isos, meaning equal. Whatever the country, whatever
the language, the short form of our name is always ISO.
Abstract
ISO 9606-1:2012 specifies the requirements for qualification testing of
welders for fusion welding of steels.
It provides a set of technical rules for a systematic qualification test of the

welder, and enables such qualifications to be uniformly accepted independently of
the type of product, location and examiner or examining body.
When qualifying welders, the emphasis is placed on the welder's ability

manually to manipulate the electrode, welding torch or welding blowpipe, thereby
producing a weld of acceptable quality.

Issued by:
INTERPRET
The welding processes referred to in ISO 9606-1:2012 include those fusion-
welding processes which are designated as manual or partly mechanized welding. It
does not cover fully mechanized and automated welding processes.

There are many different types of fire safety equipment. Each device is
designed specifically to deal with the different classes of fire in a range of
environments. If you’re struggling to figure out which fire safety devices you
need in your building, take a look at the following range of equipment.
Once you have an idea of the fire safety measures in your building, be
sure to take a look at our fire equipment service options. We test and
inspect a wide range of equipment – contact us today to request our
services.
1. Fire Extinguishers
Most buildings contain a variety of hand-held firefighting equipment.
This range of equipment is designed to help contain small fires before they
spread and become too large to control. Portable fire extinguishers are
available with a number of different extinguishing agents to help you combat
a flame. A portable extinguisher may contain the following substance:
water

Issued by:
INTERPRET
foam
dry powder
CO2
wet chemical
If you would like to know which fire extinguisher is designed for which
type of fire, check out our other blog post.
2. Fire Blankets
Fire blankets are designed to smother class F fires. That means flame
that is fuelled by cooking oils and fats. Naturally, fire blankets are installed
in kitchen environments, where the chance of a class F fire is the highest.
3. Fire Hose Reels

Fire hose reels are ideal for extinguishing class A fires. That is fires
that are fuelled by paper, rubber, wood, and other non-conductive materials.
As fire hose reels discharge water, they cannot be used to combat electrical
fires. There are other types of fire safety equipment designed to deal with
electrical fires – namely C02 fire extinguishers.
4. Signage
All fire equipment should be accompanied by standard signage. This
helps users identify the location and type of equipment they can access in
an emergency. There is a range of different regulations when it comes to fire
safety signage. Each piece of equipment is accompanied by an Australian
standard for maintenance and installation. The corresponding guide will
contain more information about signage and where it should be located.
5. Sprinklers
When it comes to the design, installation, and maintenance of fire
sprinkler systems in Australia, there are a number of standards that could
apply to your building. The following standards will influence the
implementation of fire sprinklers in your space:
AS 2118.6:2012 Standard for Automatic fire sprinkler systems

Combined sprinkler and hydrant systems in multistorey buildings
AS 2118.1:2017 Standard for Automatic fire sprinkler systems
General systems

Issued by:
INTERPRET
AS 1905.1:2005 Standard for Components for the protection of
openings in fire-resistant walls Fire-resistant doorsets
AS 1760:2105 Fire detection, warning, control and intercom systems –
System design, installation and commissioning Fire
6. First Aid Kits

They might not be the first thing to spring to mind when you think of
the different types of fire safety equipment, but first aid kits are essential in
the aftermath of a fire. Having adequate first aid measures on hand will help
with minor injuries sustained during a fire. It’s also a matter of compliance –
as a business owner or manager, you need to provide your staff members
with first aid.
7. Emergency & Exit Signs

Whilst firefighting equipment is important during an emergency when
a flame is out of control, you need to evacuate a building. Emergency and
exit signs will help to provide a clear path to an exit during a fire. Having
clear signage and lighting will help contain panic and guide your team
members to an appropriate exit in time. Emergency and exit lights need to
be maintained according to the AS 2293:2005 (Set) standard for Emergency
escape lighting and exit signs.
8. Smoke Alarms
Some types of fire safety equipment are designed for detection. Smoke
alarms should be installed in all commercial and domestic buildings. If you
are a landlord, the legislation for smoke alarm installation varies from state
to state. You can find more information about your obligations on your state
government website.
