Drawing
Drafting
Introduction

Drawing – Sketching / Idea Generation


Drafting – Type of drawing – conveys specific
details & dimensions

Architectural Drafting – includes floor plans,


elevations, sections, details, ceiling plans, finish
schedules and mechanical information such as
electrical, plumbing, air conditioning and heating
plans
Introduction

IS Codes
IS 962-1989 - architectural & Building drawing
IS 10711-1987 - sizes of drawing sheets
IS 9609-1983 -part1 - lettering on technical drawings:
part-1
IS 10713-1983 - scales for use on technical drawings
IS 10714-1983 - general principles of presentation on
technical drawings
IS 11665-1985- title block - technical drawings
Sheet Layout

Notes / Tips
Title Blocks

Title Block Creation
Folding a Drawing sheet – A3 sheet
Line Weights

3 types of Line Weights


Thick Line
Medium Line
Thin Line
Line Weights

3 types of Line Weights


Thick Line – walls, sections, outlines, borderlines,
details.,
Medium Line – outlining objects, dimensions, hidden
objects etc.,
Thin Line – guidelines, door swings, dimension
extensions, break lines, hatches etc.,
Line Types

Section Line

Continuous Line

Dimension Line
Dashed Line

Center Line
Break Line Leader Line
Line Types - Purpose

Continuous Line – visible objects in plan, elevation & Section


Dashed Line – objects not visible in reader’s current view but
needs to be acknowledged
Center Line – to locate the symmetrical center of objects
(doors, windows, beam walls etc.,)
Section Line – to show cutaway view – direction arrow
indicates the direction of section view
Line Types - Purpose

Dimension Line – indicate the physical


measurement of objects
Leader Line – line extending from text and ending
with an arrow, pointing to an object or place
Break Line – indicate an object or area is not
drawn in its entirety
Lettering

Used to Communicate Ideas


To describe elements which cannot be explained
with drawings.
Roman alphabets – All Capital letters
hand-lettering is always done using two or more
horizontal guidelines.
Lettering

Text within Title block – Medium to Bold depending


on importance
Drawing Label – Medium or Bold
Text Style: City Blueprint, Arial, Romans
Manual Drafting – Simple BLOCK LETTERING STYLE
with horizontal Strokes slightly angled
Lettering

Typical Lettering Heights are


3/16” – ¼” for Main Titles under Drawings,
1/8” to 3/16” for subtitles or room names
1/8” for notes & dimensions
½” for Sheet number in Title Block
Dimensioning

Should be drafted lighter than wall lines


Extension line begins slightly away from the object
Arrows, dots, or 45-degree tick marks are
commonly used
Exterior walls of a building are dimensioned outside
Outermost dimension line is the overall building
dimension
Numerals are placed above and centered
Dimensions are oriented to read from the base or
right side
Dimensioning
Dimensioning
Dimensioning

Single Dimension
Chain Dimension
Parallel Dimension
Superimposed running dimension
Dimensioning

Termination
For Single dimension, chain dimensions
and parallel dimension lines-
represented by short oblique lines
drawn at 45 deg
For superimposed running dimension -
open 90° arrowheads. Datum point shall
be represented by a dot surrounded by
circle
Dimensioning

Inscription of Dimension
For Single dimension, chain dimensions
and parallel dimension lines - placed
near the middle of, above and clear of
the dimension line
For superimposed running dimension –
placed near the arrow head:
In line with projection line
Above & clear of the dimension line
Symbols & Annotation

To represent objects that cannot


be depicted accurately
To represent the object that would
take too much time to draw
Example: Doors and Window details
Section & Elevation Symbols
Material Symbol
Door & Window Numbering
Section & Elevation Symbol

Section Symbol Elevation Symbol

Detail Symbol

Elevation Datum Elevation Symbol


Symbols & Annotation

Section Symbol - consists of ½” dia circle


& arrow that indicates the view direction
of sight which is solid black
Elevation Symbol – Elevation is a view of
the object as seen from the front – ½” dia
circle
Detail Symbol - The feature that needs a
detail drawing is enclosed in a large
circle and connected to the circle of the
detail mark with a leader – ½” dia circle
Elevation Datum - indicate a level line
control point – ¼” dia circle
Symbols & Annotation

Steel Concrete Concrete Block Stucco/Plaster

Brick Gravels/Pebbles Grass Stone

TILE Brick Earth Glass


Symbols & Annotation

Door - Identified by a door number


symbol. A door number symbol has a
circle and an alphabet inside.
The number indicates either door
number or door type, depending on
the project
Door & Window letter symbols should
be in 3/8”- dia circle/hexagon & 1/8” –
¼” height text
Draw the given drawing with proper line type and line weight. Use the necessary
Symbols.

Three-point

Drawing Classification System

Multi-view Drawings – visualized by


using Glass Box Theory – the object can
be imagined to be a flat
Orthographic Projections
the object is placed in a series of positions
relative to the viewing plane.
Drawing Classification System

Single View Drawings – to picture an


object or space as we normally see it in
reality with all three dimensions
appearing simultaneously
Paraline Drawing
Perspective Drawing
Drawing Classification System

Paraline Drawing– lines are drawn


parallel to one another, and object
features retain this relationship as they
appear to recede in the distance
Categorized According Projection
Method
Axonometric
Oblique

Axonometric Oblique Oblique


(Elevation) (Plan)
Drawing Classification System

Axonometric Projections – Each line


drawn parallel to these axes is drawn at
an exact scale with the true length of
the object depicted.
Measurable along the axis
Isometric - The planes of width and depth
are drawn at 30 degrees and the height is
held vertical
Dimetric - drawing makes two faces
equally visible and shortens the third face
Trimetric - rotates an object so that all Isometric Dimetric Trimetric
three faces are at different angles to the
picture plane
Drawing Classification System

Oblique Projections – Each line drawn


parallel to these axes is drawn at an
exact scale with the true length of the
object depicted.
One face of an object is always parallel
to the viewing plane and represented in
true proportion, such as an elevation or
plan view.
Plan Oblique
Elevation Oblique
Oblique projection
Drawing Classification System

Perspective – produces a more realistic


picture, as it attempts to duplicate the
way our eyes actually see objects and
space.
Characteristics
Convergence of parallel lines
Diminution of size
Foreshortening
Overlapping of forms
Drawing Classification System

One-point Perspective – sides of an object


appear to vanish to a single point on the
horizon
Two-point Perspective – picture plane is
placed parallel to only one set of lines, the
results are termed a two-point perspective
Three-point Perspective – drawn with the
viewer at a distance above the horizon
(bird’s-eye view) or below the horizon
(Worm’s-eye view)
