  2. The Need For Engineering Drawings People have expressed their thoughts and concepts for many centuries by the use of drawings. Some of those drawings are pure art. In engineering and technology technical drawings are widely used. Whether it is an aircraft engine or a child’s wagon, the persons responsible for making it need accurate and definitive information on all parts and on how they fit together. Drawings can be 3-dimensional, or 2-dimensional. The drawing can be done by computer or by hand. There are many types of engineering drawings and each has its own value and use.

  10. Engineering Graphics as a Language Our object is to study the language of engineering graphics so that we can write it clearly for those familier with it and read it readily when written by an other. To do this, we must know the basic theory and be familiar with its accepted conventions and abbreviations. Since its principles are essentially the same throughout the world, a person who has been trained in the practices of one nation can readily adapt to practices of another.

  11. Methods of Expressions The drawing can be done by computer or by hand.
