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.

2. 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.






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






4. Title Identifies the project.






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






6. Used by architect to design buildings to the client's wants and needs






7. A line connecting opposite corners of a figure.






8. An eight-sided figure with each side forming a 45






9. American Society of Mechanical Engineers






10. Actual size of framing member






11. Angled planar faces added to lines or curves.






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






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






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






15. Occurences of features copied and positioned a specified distance apart around an axis.






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






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






18. A drawing that shows an object as it appears to the human eye includes isometric and perspective drawings






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






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






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






22. 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.






23. A line used to represent the middle of a circle in engineering drawings






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






25. To draw without the aid of drafting instruments.






26. 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.






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






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






29. Shortcut key combinations that include the [Ctrl] key and a character key.






30. 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






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






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






33. The distance from one side of a circle to the other running directly through the circle's center






34. 1:2






35. The center of model mass where balance occurs.






36. Lines that are not parallel to the axes.






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






38. Used to represent visible lines on a drawing






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






40. A secondary menu that contains options related to the chosen menu item.






41. A 2D representation of an assembly.






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






43. The figure formed by two lines coming together.






44. Initials of the person who drafted the drawing.






45. Used to define specific size requirements of openings in the building






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






47. 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.






48. A three-sided geometric figure.






49. The pivot point around which the selected geometry is copied.






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