Alphabet of Lines
Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, the trainees are expected to;
1. Identify the different types of basic lines used in drawing.

2. Explain the application of basic lines.
There are several different types of lines used on a print and each has
different meaning. To be able to interpret a print, the reader should have
knowledge of these lines. These lines are called alphabet of lines.
1. Object Line. Thick solid line used to show the visible shape of the
object.
___________________________
2. Hidden Line. Broken line of medium thickness and used to show the
edges and outlines not visible to the eye.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ----
3. Center Line. Fine, broken line made up of a series of short and long
dashes alternately spaced. To show the center of circles, arcs, and
symmetrical objects and to aid in dimensioning the parts of the object.
__ _____ __ _____ __ ______ __
4. Extension Line. Fine lines that extend from the object with a slight
break between and it is used to show dimensioning points.

5. Dimension Line. Lines used to indicate the measurement of objects.
It consists of three parts: arrowheads, fine line, and number or
measurement. The fine lines have the same thickness or weight as the
projection line. The arrowheads are short heavy strokes (called flares)
placed at the extremities of this fine line. The shape of an arrowhead
is like the point of an ordinary pen. The number or figure is usually
positioned at the middle of the fine line and its axis is perpendicular
to it.
6. Leader Line. Fine, straight line with an arrowhead or round solid dot
at one end and usually drawn at angle. Points directly to a surface for
the purpose of dimensioning or adding a note. A dot may be used at
the end of the straight line where reference is made to a surface area.
7. Cutting Plane Line. A thick broken line made up of a series of one

long and two short dashes alternately spaced. The arrowheads are
placed at right angles to the cutting plane line. The purpose of this
line is to indicate where an imaginary cut is made through the object.
The arrow points in the direction in which the section should be
viewed. Letters next to the arrowheads identify the section in cases
where more than one section is shown on the drawing. These lines are
oriented vertically, horizontally, or at the actual angle at which the
part is drawn.

Dimensions are indicated in the drawings by dimension lines
and numerical figures. Dimension lines is used to indicate the
measurements of objects. The two kinds of dimensions are size and
location dimensions. Size dimension give the detail and overall sizes of
the object. Lcoation dimensions merely locate part or parts of the
object. To locate a part, there must be at least two location
dimensions.
Size Dimension Location Dimension
Overall dimensions are shown the total thickness or height,

width, and length of an object, while detail dimensions are the
thickness, length, and width of each part of the same object. Complete
dimensioning of any object is necessary no matter how simple or
complex it may be.
Dimensioning Rules
To help the beginner remember the dimensioning rules, it

should be remembered that each rule is followed by illustration or
illustrations. Not included here are rules followed in advance

Scaling
Objectives:
1. Align proportionaly objects to be the illustrated in the

drawing paper.
Scaling is the process of making an object shorter or longer,

bigger or smaller so that it could be conviniently drawn on paper.
Rules used by pattern makers in a foundry shop are scaled to

compensate for the expansion and contraction of materials for casting.
Also, the rules, traingular in cross-section, used by architects and
engineers you might have seen around, are scaled to make buildings,
highways and amchineries shorter or smaller for accomodation on
drawing paper.
The rule below is an architectural or mechanical engineer’s rule.

Reduction in size is based on proportion of the millimeters.

LARRY O. CERBO
Methods of Scaling
1. Reducing Method. This method is applied when the object to

be drawn is bigger than the size of the gragihng
paper where to draw. This is most practiced method
of scaling for engineering works.
Example:
a. Scale 1 : 100 mm
b. Scale 1 : 500 mm
2. Enlarging Method. The object to be drawn is too small for the

size of the graphing paper. This needs the object to
be enlarge that is proportional to the size of the
graphing paper.
Example:
a. Scale 10 : 1 mm
b. Scale 100 : 20 mm
3. Retaining Method. The object to be drawn need not to be

alter to be proportional to the graphing paper.
Example:
a. Scale 1:1
The scale size of a drawing is always in direct proportion to the

actual size of the object. The figure on the left side represents the
quantity of measure for the drawing while the figure on the right side
represents the corresponding quantity of measure for the object being
illustrated.
Example:
a. Scale 1:100 is used and the dimension of the object is 10

meters. The linear distance on the print, therefore, is 0.1
meter of the object distance.

Orthographic drawing is a special type of drawing which may
not be pleasing to the eyes but it is easier to understand than other
types of drawing after one develop skills in reading and interpreting it.
Orthographic comes from the Greek words “Orthos” and

“Graphos” meaning straight and draw.
View is the different position used in orthographic projection

that an object may be projected and this is done by extending
perpendicular lines to the plane from all parts of the object.
The Six Orthographic Views
A. Front View. Front view is observed directly behind the rear

view.
B. Right Side View. View directly observed at the right of the

front view and it is the opposite of the Left Side View.
C. Top View. Top view is directly above the front view.
D. Bottom View. View directly observed beneath the front view.

It is the opposite of the Top View.
E. Rear View or Back View. View that is the opposite of the front
view.
F. Left Side View. View directly observed at the left of the front
view and it is the opposite of the Right Side View.

Orthographic Projection
Objectives:
1. Identify the systems of orthographic projection.

2. Explain the principles of orthographic projection.
Orthographic projection refers to the representation of the exact

shape of an object in two or more views as they seen perpendicularly
from its surfaces.
Projections are the perpendicular lines extending from the

object to the plane.
Plane of projection is the picture plane which the views of the

objects are viewed or projected.
The process of drawing an object in two or more views is called

orthographic projection.

Two systems of orthographic projection used in the engineering field
and these are:
1. First Angle Projection of the European System

2. Third Angle Projection of the American System
In the first angle projection each view shows what would be

seen by looking on the other side of an adjacent view. The top view is
directly below the front view and the side views which are drawn
beside the front view are also at the top.
In the third angle projection each view shows what would be

seen by looking on the near side of an adjacent view. The top view is
directly above the front view, the right side view is directly to the right

Most of the objects around us are generally shown in three
views. These are the top view, front view, and right-side view. The
right-side view is called side view. This means that a side view not
preceded by the word LEFT, is a right-side view.
Three views are sufficient in the majority of cases to describe

the shape of an object. All edges and corners of an object must be
shown in each view of the object.
Each view of an object will show a minimum of two dimensions.

Any two views of an object will have at least one dimension in

Isometric Drawing
Objectives:
1. Define isometric drawing.

2. Explain the principles of isometric drawing.
3. Illustrate isometric drawing from the given orthographic
views.
An orthographic drawing is sometimes supplemented with a

pictorial drawing to optimize one’s understanding of the object. The
pictorial drawing often represents a portion of the object and shows
the method of its construction.
The most common pictorial drawings used in the manufacturing

industries are isometric, oblique, and perspective drawing. Among the
three pictorial views, isometric drawing is the most commonly used
and the most useful in making freehand sketches. Isometric drawing
is a method of drawing objects so that three dimensions are shown,
not in perspective but in actual size.

In an isometric drawing, all lines that are parallel on the objects
are also parallel on the drawing. Likewise, vertical lines are shown in a
vertical position, but lines representing horizontal lines are drawn at
an angle of 30° with the horizontal axis. All lines which represent the
horizontal and vertical lines on an object have true length. The same
scale of measure is used on the three visible sides namely; top, front
and right; as all isometric lines are spread equally at 120°.
Isometric drawings may be dimensioned so that the blueprints

of these drawings can be used for simple objects. However, isometric
drawings cannot be used alone for complicated parts on structures.
They need supporting materials like the detailed plan of the
structures.
Isometric Drawing
The term isometric is derived from two words: iso and metric.
Iso means equal and metric means measure. Thus isometric means
equal measure. In other words, the size of an isometric view is in

isometric drawing are taken from orthographic views.
The three axes of an isometric drawing are the vertical axis, the
300 left and right cross-axes. The three positions involved in drawing
these axes are also shown in this figure.

The selection of the best joint design for a specific weldment
requires careful consideration of a variety of factors. Each factor, if
considered alone, would result in a part that might not be able to be
fabricated.
Basic Weld Joints
A weld joint refers to how the parts to be joined are assembled

prior to welding. There are five basic types of joints used in welding:
butt, lap, T-joint, corner, and edge joint.
The metal to be used joined is the metal. It is also known as the
work piece or work. The edges of the base metal are often machined,
sheared, gouged, flame cut, or bent to prepare them for welding. Weld
joint design and metal thickness usually determine how the joint is
prepared. Generally, the weld joint design is determined by an
engineer.
1. Butt Joint
Butt joints are used when parts are joined end – to – end, as in
a pipeline or a ship’s deck plates. Some type of groove configuration is
specified on the ends of the pieces being joined. The edges of the base
metal may require preparation before welding. Edge preparation
refers to how the edges of the joint are shaped prior to welding. If the
base metal is thin, the edges may just be squared without additional
machining or cutting. The edges of thin metal may also be bent to
form flare – groove or edge – flange joints.
Generally, when base metal over 3/16” (4.8 mm) thick is used;
edges are beveled by machining or flame cutting. Edges preparation is
required to allow the weld to penetrate to the required depth. Thick
base metal may be machined, gouged, or flame cut along the upper or
lower edges of the joint, or both, to form a double – bevel, V -,J -, or U
– groove. A butt joint maybe prepared using any of the edge
preparations.

Parts of a Groove Joint
a. The groove face is the surface formed on the edge of the base
metal after it has been machined or flame cut.
b. The total angle formed between the groove face on one piece and
the groove face on the other piece is the groove angle.
c. The bevel angle is the angle from the root face to the groove
face on one piece.
d. The root of the weld is the bottom edge of the base metal.
e. The distance from the root of the weld to the point where the
bevel angle begins is the root face
f. Rootopening is the distance between the two pieces at the root

of the weld.
g. The face of the weld is the outer surface of the weld base on
the side of the weld.
h. Face reinforcement is the distance from the top of the weld

face to the surface of the base metal.
i. The toe of the weld is the point where the weld bead contacts
the base metal surface. It occurs twice on each on each weld
bead.
j. Root reinforcement is the distance that the penetration

projects from the root side of the joint.
k. Joint penetration or weld size is the depth that a weld

extends into the joint from the surface.

2. Lap Joint
A Lap Joint is formed by two overlapping pieces of base metal.

The top surface of one piece is in contact with the bottom surface of
the other. Special edge preparation is not required. However, the edge
of the pieces may be prepared to form a bevel groove, J – groove, or
flare – bevel – groove joint.
3. Corner Joint
A corner joint is formed by placing one piece of base metal along

the outer edge of another piece. The pieces may be joined at any angle,
but are commonly welded at a 90⁰ angle. Corner joints may be welded
as inside corners, outside corners, or a combination of both. Inside
corner joints are welded along the inside of the intersection of the
two pieces. Outside corner joints are welded along the outside edge
of the joint. The edges may be squared, beveled, grooved, flared, or
edge – flanged.

Developed:
CBLM Devt
LARRY O. CERBO
4. T – Joint
A T – joint is formed by two pieces of base metal that are at an

angle of approximately 90⁰ to one another. The main difference
between a corner and T – joint is that a corner joint is formed along
the edge of one piece, while T – joint is formed anywhere but along the
edge. The edges of the base metal may be prepared as a square,
beveled, grooved, or flared – bevel – groove joint. Both edges of the
base metal may be prepared to form a double – bevel – groove joint.
5. Edge Joint
An edge joint is formed when the surfaces of two pieces are in

contact and their edges are flush (even). The pieces are joined by
welding along at least one of the flush edges.

Dimension of fillet welds are shown on the same side of the

reference line as the weld symbol and are shown to the left of the
symbol. When both sides of a joint have the same size fillet welds, one
or both may be dimensioned. When both sides of a joint have different
size fillet welds, both are dimensioned. When the dimensions of one or
both welds differ from the dimensions given in the general notes, both
welds are dimensioned. The size of a fillet weld unequal legs is shown
in parentheses to the left of the weld symbol. The length of a fillet
weld, when indicated on the welding symbol, is shown to the right of
the weld symbol. In intermittent fillet welds, the length and pitch
increments are placed to the right of the weld symbol. The first
number represents the length of the weld, and the second number
represents the pitch or the distance between the centers of two welds.

B. Groove Weld
In groove weld preparation, the root opening is given inside the

weld symbol. The groove angle is shown just outside the weld symbol.
The depth of penetration is given on the left side of the welding
symbol. Weld size may also be given in this same location.
Edges of metal over ¼” (6.4 mm) thick are always prepared in

some way before making a groove weld, in order to ensure 100%
penetration. The groove weld size is the depth to which a weld
penetrates the joint from the surface of the base metal. The desired
depth of preparation and the depth of the weld penetration are
generally determined by codes or specifications.
