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 constraint that forces two points to share the same location.






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






3. A grouping of one or more design components.






4. Used in AutoCAD to show various materials in sectional drawings






5. An orthographic drawing of multiple parts that shows relationship of parts to each other in a mechanism






6. Text on a drawing.






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






8. Relief typically added to a sheet metal part to relieve stress or the tear that occurs when a portion of a piece of material is bent.






9. 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.






10. Describes a polygon in which the flats are tangent to an imaginary circle; circumscribed polygons are measured across the polygon flats.






11. Angled planar faces added to lines or curves.






12. A figure or character used in place of a word.






13. Each part is approximately the right size in relation .to the other parts of the drawing.






14. Initials of the person who drafted the drawing.






15. Circles that have the same center but different diameters.






16. Title Identifies the project.






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






18. A shape usually circular that is connected to an assembly component by a leader. It contains an identification number or letter that refers to an item in the parts list.






19. The center of model mass where balance occurs.






20. A line connecting opposite corners of a figure.






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






22. The distance from any point on a circle to the circles center.






23. The perimeter of a circle.






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






25. A six-sided figure with each side forming a 60






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






27. Contains: Company logo Sheet title Date Drawn Drawing number Scale Revision block.






28. A dimensioning method in which the size and location of features are given in reference to a datum.






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






30. A figure having equal length sides.






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






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






33. Exact drawing representation of a given thread type






34. Geometry used for construction purposes only. Inventor cannot use construction geometry to build sketched features.






35. 1:2






36. Piece of tracing paper that is placed on top of a sketch or drawing.






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






38. Having a common center.






39. A rectangle or polygon near the edge of the drawing sheet that defines the usable drawing area of the drawing sheet. Borders may also include zone numbers and center marks.






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






41. Formed using a brake die mandrel roller or similar tools.






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






43. Lines added to the spline to help illustrate and analyze the spline curvature.






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






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

47. At right angles to a horizontal line.






48. To draw without the aid of drafting instruments.






49. Used to represent visible lines on a drawing






50. To draw around.
