Format four sheets of drawing paper (or two sheets of paper if you are completing
requirement 3) with proper borders and title blocks for your projects.
Make a rough sketch of your project drawings to determine the correct size of paper to
format.
Using single-stroke vertical or slant Gothic lettering, fill in all important
information in the title block sections of the formatted paper.
Complete requirement 2 or 3 for your drawing projects.
Prepare two of the following pencil drawings for reproduction, using two of the
formatted sheets of paper and being sure to fill in the title block information.
Architectural: Make a rough sketch of a room. From it, maker a finished scale floor
plan. Using conventional symbols, show all openings, equipment, lights, and safety
devices. Use an architectural scale size.
Mechanical: Make a scale drawing of some piece of craft work or interesting object. Use
the orthographic projection technique to show at least three views. Use dimension lines to
show the actual size.
Electrical: Draw a simple schematic of a radio or electronic circuit. Properly print a
bill of materials of the major electronic parts of the radio or circuit. Use standard
drawing symbols for the electronic components.
Using a CAD (computer-aided drafting) system, prepare and plot one of the drawings in
requirements 2a, 2b, or 2c. Create the format (border and title block) on the computer
before starting the drawing.
Using a formatted sheet of paper, prepare an isometric drawing of something not drawn in
requirement 2 or 3. On the drawing, list which instruments you used.
Lettering: Using single-stroke vertical or slant Gothic lettering, describe in forty
words or less why CAD is used in a particular industry (aerospace, electronics,
architectural, or other). Use the 8+-by-11-inch formatted sheet.
Describe the three most common methods of reproducing pencil drawings. Describe one
method of reproducing a computer drawing. Make copies of one of your drawings using one of
these methods.
