With the increasing complexities of economy, as well as the ensuing disruption in IT, besides the stringent safety rules, this inter-disciplinary subject has become challenging to comprehend from exam point of view. Looking at the nature of Engineering Services Examination (ESE), and the level of questions being asked, the conventional approach of preparing through theory and examples does not serve the purpose. This book attempts to provide logical reasoning through mathematical analysis, gives a clear insight into the concepts, and paints a complete picture in front of your eyes. For students to discover the extent of their learning, practice questions have been provided at the end of this book.

  • Engineering Drawing Questions and Answers – Drawing Tools and Their Uses – 1
    Engineering Drawing Questions and Answers – Drawing Tools and their Uses – 1 1. How many battens will be there for a Drawing board? a) 1 b) 2 c) 3 d) 4 Answer: b Explanation: Generally drawing board has dimensions of 1000 x 1500, 700 x 1000, 500 x 700, 350 mm x 500 mm, and made of well-seasoned soft wood, so there would be no bending while life increases. And also if size of drawing board increases widely then the board will be fabricated with another 1 or 2 batten. 2. The part that doesn’t belong to T-square is __________ a) Working edge b) Blade c) Stock d) Ebony Answer: d Explanation: Working edge and Stock are parts of T- square those which make 90 degrees with each other, the blade is the long bar that exists in T-Square. Ebony is part of Drawing board in which T-square is fitted to draw lines. 3. The angle which we can’t make using a single Set-square is ________ a) 45o b) 60o c) 30o d) 75o Answer: d Explanation: 45o can be drawn using 45o Set-square, and 30o, 60o can be drawn using 30o – 60o Set-square, but to draw 75o degrees we need both Set-squares. That is only if we keep 30o of set-square adjacent with 45o set-square we can get 75o. And also multiple angles can be achieved using protractor. 4. The angle which we can’t make using both the Set-squares is _____________ a) 15o b) 105o c) 165o d) 125o Answer: d Explanation: 15o can be made by keeping 45o and 30o adjacent to each other on the line perpendicular to the line for which 15ois made.

Drafting is a technical drawing used by designers to graphically present ideas and represent objects necessary for a designed environment. A set of these drafted illustrations is called a construction document (CD). There are common rules and standards to ensure that all designers are able to understand what is in the drawing. These design drawings use a graphic language to communicate each and every piece of information necessary to convey an idea and ultimately create a design. The following section of this handbook will help guide you through the common drafting standards that will be used in the Interior Design program at the University of Minnesota. Architectural drafting is basically pictorial images of buildings, interiors, details, or other items that need to be built. These are different from other types of drawings as they are drawn to scale, include accurate measurements and detailed information, and other information necessary to build a structure.
