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. Establishing assembly constraints including mate flush tangent and insert constraints by dragging one component to another component.






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






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






4. A three-sided geometric figure.






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






6. 1:2

8. 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.






9. Having a common center.






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






11. Two or more iMates linked together and added to a single; used for the same assembly operation.






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






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






14. A line connecting opposite corners of a figure.






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






16. A document that show the quantity of each type of direct material required to make a product






17. A skecth that is fully closed and does not contain any gaps or openings.






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






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






20. To draw one figure within another figure.






21. The intersection point of the X Y and Z axes in 3D space or 0 0 0.






22. A 2D representation of an assembly.






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






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






25. A constraint that forces two points to share the same location.






26. The perimeter of a circle.






27. Lines that are not parallel to the axes.






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






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






30. The overall working environment within which secondary environments exist.






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






32. The first view placed in a drawing to which all other views are added.






33. A geometric figure with a uniform circular cross-section through its entire length.






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






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






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






37. The ratio of the size of the object as drwan to the object's actual size.






38. To draw without the aid of drafting instruments.






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






40. Title Identifies the project.






41. Text on a drawing.






42. The part of the computer that processes input information.






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






44. Sketch based on a plane that follows the 3 basic axes.






45. A view used to show the true size and shape of an inclined surface that is not parallel to any of the projected views including the front top bottom left-side right-side and back views.






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






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






48. For a three-dimensional object - a line that cannot be seen because view of it is obstructed by part of the object or of another object






49. A grouping of one or more design components.






50. American Society of Mechanical Engineers
