    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Sets out the basic principles of technical drawing practice, and covers terminology and abbreviations used in technical drawings; materials, sizes and layout of drawing sheets; types and thicknesses of lines; types and dimensions of letters, numerals and symbols; drawing scales; projectioning; sectioning; dimensioning and geometry tolerancing and the conventional representation of features and parts. Appendices provide information on the development of pictorial drawings and geometry tolerancing.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This Standard sets out the basic principles of technical drawing practice. Section 1 sets out abbreviations.Section 2 specifies materials, sizes, and layout of drawing sheets.Section 3 specifies the types and minimum thicknesses of lines to be used and shows typical examples of their application.Section 4 sets out the requirements for distinct uniform letters, numerals, and symbols.Section 5 sets out recommended scales and their application.Section 6 sets out methods of projection and of indication of the various views of an object.Section 7 sets out methods of indicating section and provides information on conventions used in sectioning. Section 8 sets out recommendations for dimensioning including size and geometry tolerancing.Section 9 specifies conventions used for the representation of components and repetitive features of components.Appendices provide information on the various projection methods, geometry tolerancing and comparison with other Standards.NOTE: All drawings in this Standard are drawn in third angle projection unless otherwise stated. See Clause 6.3.3.
