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.

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






8. Lines on an isometric drawing that are parallel to the isometric axes.






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






10. Title Identifies the project.






11. A line at right angles to a given line.






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

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






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






17. 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.

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






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






27. 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.






28. A line connecting opposite corners of a figure.






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

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






34. A dimension used to define an object or feature that is not vertical or horizontal.






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

49. To draw without the aid of drafting instruments.






50. To draw one figure within another figure.
