Drawing Pencils
High-quality drawing pencils should be used in technical drawing, never ordinary writing pencils.
Many makes of mechanical pencils are available together with refill leads in all grades. Choose a
mechanical pencil that feels comfortable in your hand.
LEC 01, Introduction 7
8. Drawing Pencils
Wooden pencils – are graded and designated by numbers and letters
Mechanical clutch pencils – Not allowed
• 7B, 6B, 5B, 4B, 3B, 2B, B - in decreasing order of softness and
blackness
• HB to F – Medium grade
• H, 2H, 3H, 4H, 5H, 6H, 7H, 8H, 9H – increasing order of
hardness.
Drawings are done using 2HLEC 01, Introduction 8
10. Pencil drawing –
In finished drawing, all lines (except construction lines-
used to construct the drawing) should be dense, clean
and uniform.
Construction line should be drawn very thin and should
be hardly visible in the finished drawing ( they should
not be erased).
LEC 01, Introduction 10

Drawing
The words of the language, as they are written or spoken, do not seem to play any role in my
mechanism of thought. The psychical entities which seem to serve as elements in thought are
certain signs and more or less clear images which can be “voluntarily” reproduced and
combined--this combinatory play seems to be the essential feature in productive thought before
there is any connection with logical construction in words or other kinds of signs which are
communicated to others
--Albert Einstein

Ways to Create an
Engineering Drawing
1. Freehand sketch
2. Using typical drawing instruments
3. Using a computer
LEC 01, Introduction 16
17. Example
Create a Drawing : Freehand sketch
The lines are drawn using only pencil and erasers on a
blank or grid paper.
Pictorial sketch Orthographic sketch
LEC 01, Introduction 17
18. Example
Create a Drawing : Using instruments
Drawing instruments are used to
draw straight lines, circles, and
curves conciselyconcisely and accuratelyaccurately.
Drawings are usually made to scalemade to scale.

ScaleScale is a ratio between the linear dimension of a
drawn representation of an object and the actual object.

LEC 01, Introduction 32
33. Designation of a scale consists of the word “SCALE”
followed by the indication of its ratio, as follows
SCALE 1:1 for full size
SCALE X:1 (X > 1) for an enlargementenlargement scales
SCALE 1:X (X > 1) for a reductionreduction scales
Drawing Scales : Designation
Drawing scale is commonly found in a title block.
LEC 01, Introduction 33
34. Dimension numbersDimension numbers shown in the drawing represent
the “true size” of an object and they are independent of
the drawing scale used.
Drawing Scales : Notes
LEC 01, Introduction 34
35. Standard reducing scales are
1:2, 1:5, 1:10, 1:20, 1:50, 1:100
