4. Drafting
 The process of drawing to communicate ideas and
instructions to others.
 Most manufactured products and all major buildings
were first created on drawing boards

5. Drafting Equipment
 T square –instrument used in drawing horizontal lines. It is also used
in guiding triangles when drawing vertical lines.
 Triangle – a three sided ruler which has typically two equal sides
meeting at 900.
 30 x 60 and
 45 x 45 degrees.
 Divider - is used to create equal distances, transfer measurements and
spacing points or lines
 Masking tape - material used for fastening the drawing paper on the
drawing table.
 Erasing Shield - is a useful tool to protect the rest of the drawing when
clearing up smudges, unnecessary pencil lines and other erasures.
 Pencil - is made of a much better grade of graphite, commonly called
lead which is used in drawing lines. (9H, 8H, 7h, 6H, 5H, 4H, 3H, 2H,
H, HB, B, 2B, 3B, 4B, 5B, and 6B)

6. Drafting
 Freehand drawing or Sketching – the use of pencil,
paper and eraser only.
 Mechanical drawing – describing the shapes of objects
completely and exactly with the aid of drawing instruments
and by the use of orthographic projection.
 Technical Drawing – used to show the material, dimension
(Width, Height, Depth) and shape of a product.
 Orthographic Drawing– representing the exact shape of an
object into 2 or more views on planes, generally at right angle
or 90 degrees.
 Isometric drawing – the object is represented by three sides
seen at one time. It is made with a 30 x 60 degrees triangle.
 Pictorial drawing – it shows object as it would appear in a
photograph. It shows more than one side of the object.

7. Lettering (Free Hand)
 Lettering is usually done freehand
 Either one of these two styles may be made; vertically or
inclined.
 Italics is 67.5 degrees
 A good height of lettering for dimension and notes on a working
drawing is 1/8 of an inch.
 For the lettering of subtitles 3/16 of an inch is recommended.
 All titles should be lettered with capital letters.
 When only capital letters are used, the beginning letter of each
sentence is often made higher than the remaining letters.
 When lower case letters are used, capitals are used in the
beginning letter at the start of a sentence, and for proper names,

8. Lettering (Guidelines)
 [1]Cap line – the uppermost line for uppercase letters
and for ascender.
 [2]Waist line – line between Cap and Base lines, used
to determine the height of the lower case letters.
 [3]Base line – line where all the letters rest or stand.
 [4]Drop line – a line for letters with strokes that
extend downward known as descender.

10. Drafting (Lines)
 [1]Dimension line - used to indicate the measurement of objects
which are represented by dark solid lines.
 [2]Extension line – fine line used to show clearly the dimension
limits.
 [3]Center line – light broken lines used in circles, sometimes as
extension line
 [4]Leader line – line leading from a dimension value, or explanatory
note to the feature on the drawing. An arrowhead is used in pointing
end but not in note end.
 [5]Long break – a limiting line used to limit the length of elongated
object.
 [6]Invisible line - a series of light dash line that represents parts of a
drawing that are not seen.
 Border line - is considered as the darkest lines that surround a
drawing usually in rectangular shape
