Skills Assessment

Direction: Listed below are some of the most important skills that you must gain in
order to draft a quality floor plan. On the right side of the matrix lists the skills
expected of you to master. Rate yourself by checking “Not much”, if you are not
so familiar yet, “A little” and/or “A lot”, if you are already familiar with the skills.
Don’t feel bad if you checked “Not Much” in all of the skills. Keep in mind that this
is being administered to determine your pre-entry knowledge of and skills on the

Learning Competency 1

 TLE_ICTTD9-12AL-Ib-2
LO 2. Prepare and set up tools and materials for drawing
2.1 Observe OHS policies and procedures in setting-up tools and materials for drawing
2.2 Prepare drawing tools, materials and equipment based on job requirements
2.3 Set up tools, materials, and equipment based on the job requirements

Technical Terms Encountered In Preparing and Setting-Up Tools and Materials for
Drawing
Drawing Tools- are instruments used as guide in drawing processes.
Drawing Materials - are the consumable drawing items such as drawing paper,
masking tape, eraser etc.
Drawing Equipment - the instruments, attachments, and other equipment used to
make mechanical drawings.
The Importance of Drawing Tools, Materials, and Equipment
This lesson is only a review of your prior learning in technical drawing
particularly on the proper use and care of drawing tools, materials and equipment.
The purpose of this discussion is to allow you to review and recall its importance in
the Drafting Technology works.
A. Drawing/Drafting Tools
These refer to the sets of tools that are used in all drafting works or activities
especially if the activity requires mechanical presentation. Prior to the start of
drafting activity, it is expected therefore that all drawing tools needed must be
available in the work station to ensure that the assigned task can
be accomplished according job specifications.
The following are the common drafting tools:

 B. Drawing/Drafting Materials
Drafting is the art of making
technical drawings and is
performed by architects,
engineers and designers of all
types. Drawings are created to
represent a specific idea and
become a blueprint for a physical
form. These drawings need to be
accurate for the object to be
manifested
These are sets of
consumable items that are
specifically used in drafting works
or activities. The draftsman cannot perform his drafting task without these items.
The following are the required materials needed in drafting works:
1. Bond Paper (short and Long)
2. Tracing paper
3. A4 drawing paper
4. Drawing pencil – HB, F, 2H
5. Pen and Ink Eraser
6. Masking Tape
7. Ink (Steadler/Rotring/Faber Castell)
8. Cartolina Paper

C. Equipment

These items are also essential in producing quality drafting output especially if
the assigned task requires mechanical manipulation. Although, these items are so
expensive, however, these are important in making the drawing output
presentable and convincing to the clients.

The following are some of the equipment needed in drafting task:

Procedure in Setting up Drawing Tools, Materials and Equipment and Standard
Operating Procedure

In preparation for a required

task in drawing architectural layout
and details, a draftsman should
analyze the job order, prepare, and
select tools and materials for the
task. This is to ensure the correct
setting of standard procedure and
accuracy of drawing plans. Some of
the key tools used in drafting
architectural plans are described
and illustrated in this learning
Outcome.

The drawing tools, materials

and equipment are very expensive
items, however these are important
in all drafting tasks. Considering its
cost and value in drafting activity, it
is also important to take care and
maintain its functionality.

With this, you are required to

adhere tothe Standard Operating
Procedure in keeping them safe, functional and safe during and after each use.

A. Before the start of drafting activity: Setting-up of drafting tools, materials and
equipment:
1. Select the tools, materials and equipment which are needed in performing
the assigned task.
2. Properly set up the required tools and materials in a place within your reach
which is convenient for you to move and execute your work.
3. Clean the table and tools, see to it that these are free from dust and other
elements that would cause damage to your work.
4. Wash your hand with clean water.

B. Activity proper:
1. Perform the activity by following the standard operating procedure per job
requirement.
2. Properly manipulate all the tools and equipment that are used in the activity.
3. In case of errors or mistakes along the way of the activity (for instance
misprinting of lines, letters, and other forms of mistakes) us
appropriate eraser for a particular mistake.

7
C. After the activity:
1. Submit your output to your teacher for checking.
2. Check all the tools and materials to ensure that nothing has lost.
3. Check and clean the drawing tools and equipment.
4. Return the tools and materials to the assigned tool keeper for safekeeping.
5. Withdraw your borrower’s card from the tool keeper as a proof that you have
returned the borrowed tools and materials.
6. Clean your work station before leaving.

D. Other important practices that must be observed in the work station or

workplace
There are important practices that you must observed in the work station and
they are the following:
1. Observe safety precautions:
1.1 Never use any tools and equipment without having it cleaned.
1.2 Always turn off the lights, air condition, ceiling fan, computer units, and
other electronic equipment before leaving the work station.
1.3 Maintain the cleanliness and orderliness of the work station.
1.4 Use tools and equipment properly.
2. Observe punctuality in attendance.
3. Avoid quarrelling with your co-students.
4. Observe and practice the value of respect.
5. Return the borrowed tools and equipment on time.
6. Observe and practice proper disposal of waste.
