… when is drawing used ?
… to transfer product information

39 / 86

… what is drawing aim ?

“Contract / Agreement” meaning of drawing
between designer and manufacturer or
verifier (product functionality)

40 / 86
 Drawing
to communicate

41 / 86

The engineer language of

communication is the drawing

You must know the grammar, the

syntax and the rules of graphic
language

42 / 86
 As a means of communication, the
design should transmit a mental
picture of the object, with all the
features, shapes and sizes

43 / 86

Drawing for communicate

… who define standards
of drawing ?

45 / 86

ISO International
Standard
Organization

CEN
Comitè Europèen
de Normalisation

UNI
Ente Nazionale Italiano di Unificazione
46 / 86
Standard: rules that set the conditions of
production of an object or implementation
that you want to unify the use or to ensure
the interchangeability

in order to achieve a more optimal overall

economy, taking into account the functional
and safety requirements

47 / 86

Standard
Compliance
with voluntary code of
practice, recommendation,
how to design

Standard corporation

48 / 86
 Technical rule
Compliance mandatory in
the interest of health and
social safety

Public corporation

49 / 86

Standards

50 / 86
from the Latin “unum facere”, the reduction
of possible objects to few units, that meet
the needs of different uses …

Standards fix for each item a number

and a qualitative dimension series that
significantly reduced the manufacturing
variety

51 / 86

Examples of standards elements

Monkey wrench Screws, nuts, bolts and threads
