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 two dimensional drawing of the front top and side views of an object






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






3. A grouping of one or more design components.






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






5. Information on the revisions including (at minimum) the date and initials of the person making the revision.
