Certified Drafting Exam

Subject : certifications
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. A geometric figure with a uniform circular cross-section through its entire length.






2. A feature part or assembly stored in a catalog that can be inserted into a part model as a feature.






3. The initial model feature on which all others are based.






4. Counter space requirements on either side of sink






5. The heaviest line used in drafting acts as a "frame" for the drawing.






6. The center of model mass where balance occurs.






7. To divide into two parts of equal size or length.






8. Parameters that control the size location and position of model elements including sketches and features.






9. A light line of long dashes separated by two short dashes.






10. The standard that is currently in use in a model or drawing file.






11. Three dimensional drawing where the front faces forward and the depth dimensions go back at angles usually 15 30 or 45 degrees - Used when most information on drawing is on the front of the object.






12. To draw one figure within another figure.






13. Handlebar endpoints used to adjust the shape of a spline.






14. A fine line composed of long and short dashes with spaces in between used to indicate the center of a symmetrical object.






15. A dashed medium-weight line used to identify features that cannot be seen in a given view.






16. Heavy line used to outline visible edges of an object.






17. The perimeter of a circle.






18. Used to represent visible lines on a drawing






19. The positions or locations of points on the X Y and Z planes.






20. An arrangement of copies of a feature around an imaginary cirlce a designated number of times and at a specified distance apart.






21. To draw without the aid of drafting instruments.






22. Heavy dashed line used to show section views.






23. Lines that are not parallel to the axes.






24. An estimated cost used by architects to begin schematic design process






25. A dimensioning method that provides coordinates from established datums that are usually located at the corner of the part or the axis of a feature.






26. A line that defines an axis of symmetry or the center of a circular feature.






27. At right angles to a horizontal line.






28. Used up in the creation of a model or feature.






29. Code numbers assigned to a project.






30. A grouping of one or more design components.






31. Title Identifies the project.






32. Exact drawing representation of a given thread type






33. Depth of an object is drawn at any angle.






34. Three dimensional drawing that depth lines disappear to a vanishing point - Used mainly in architectural presentations






35. A dimension used to define the angle between two lines.






36. Text on a drawing.






37. Restrictions applied to sketches to define sketch geometry in reference to other sketch geometry.






38. Used to make lines of varying colors and widths on CAD drawings






39. Collection of different lines which vary in line weight and type.






40. A figure having equal length sides.






41. Constraints that establish geometric relationships and positions between one component face edge or axis and another component face edge or axis.






42. A closed curve in the form of a symmetrical oval.






43. Fillets and rounds that have a curve radius that does not change.






44. Angled planar faces added to lines or curves.






45. A line that normally runs between two extension lines has arrows or ticks at its ends and has a value at its center.






46. A panel that displays all the items in the current model or drawing.






47. A curved surface connecting two surfaces which form an angle.






48. To draw around.






49. A surface formed by patching the space within a selected closed region.






50. Three dimensional drawing made up of equal angles of 120 degrees most common 3-D drawing used in industry
