    Overview
     Engineering graphics communication involves
    the use of visual material to convey technical
    ideas and problem solutions.
     Engineering or technical drawing – one of the most
    widely used method.
     Definition of drawing:
     A graphic representation of an idea, concept or an entity
    which actually or potentially exists in life.
    Overview
     Importance:
     A way of communication between engineers at all stages of
    the design & problem solving from initial ideas, design,
    analysis & manufacturing.

    Sketching
    Sketching
     3 methods of creating technical drawings
     Freehand, mechanical & digital
     Technical sketching is the process of producing
    a rough preliminary drawing representing the
    main features of a product or structure
     Normally done by freehand, generally less
    finished, less structured/ restricted, & take less
    time to produce
    Sketching
     Technical sketches
     Used extensively in the first stage of design process
    to visualise or convey ideas
     An informal tool used by everyone involved in the
    design & manufacture of a product
    Sketching
     Sketching tool
     Paper, pencils, eraser
     Sketching technique e.g.
     Straight line sketch
     Circle & arc
     Component (proportional sketch)
     Pictorial sketch
     In sketching, proportionality is important.
     Even though it is a freehand sketch, the lines
    should be relatively sharp and straight for a
    good quality sketch.

    TECHNICAL ILLUSTRATIONS
    Technical Illustrations in the 21st Century

    The needs for technical illustrations and technical


    illustrators are increasing due to various factors
    including warranty issues demanding higher-quality
    documentations.
    Illustrations versus Drawings
     A technical drawing is used for designing and
    manufacturing a machine. It is always a scale
    representation of a unit or part, providing views that
    are needed to furnish an accurate visual description.
     In technical drawings, even the smallest detail must
    be defined precisely to ensure that the drawing is
    unambiguous.
     Technical illustrations are in many ways the exact
    opposite since they have a completely different
    purpose. The intention is to depict a part in such a
    way that it is quickly and clearly recognizable.
     In a technical illustration, less is often more, in that
    less detail will make the picture more
    understandable.
