Document Summary
Technical sketching: creating drawings for the purpose of sharing ideas visually. Critical skill in engineering design for all disciplines. Balance quickness vs neatness the goal is to communicate your idea efficiently. All sketches will be comprised of two basic elements. Mider line 45 degrees from the center origin of the multiview diagram project information across. Any object can be defined by its boundary. Boundary is made up of surfaces, called faces. Faces can be any mathematically definable surface but we will usually restrict ourselves to planar, cylindrical, conical, and spherical surfaces. Edges can be any curves in three-space but we will generally restrict ourselves to lines, circular arch and elliptical arcs, however the intersection of simple primitives such as two cylinders. Need to know how design changes will effect overall design. Constraints on our profiles allow the designer to know how changes effect her design.
