The book is divided into six chapters that follow a logical progression. The first chapter gives an overview of the principles of engineering drawing and the important concept that engineering drawing is like a language. It has its own rules and regulation areas and it is only when these are understood and implemented that an engineering drawing becomes a specification. The second chapter deals with the various engineering drawing projection methodologies. The third chapter introduces the concept of the ISO rules governing the representation of parts and features. A practical example is given of the drawing of a small hand vice. The ISO rules are presented in the context of this vice such that it is experiential learning rather than theoretical. The fourth chapter introduces the methods of dimensioning and tolerancing components for manufacture.
The fifth chapter introduces the concept of limits, fits and geometric tolerancing, which provides the link of dimensioning to functional performance. A link is also made with respect to the capability of manufacturing processes. The sixth and final chapter covers the methodology of specifying surface finish. A series of questions are given in a final section to aid the students’ understanding. Full references are given at the end of each chapter so the students can pursue things further if necessary.
