Instructions:
  • Answer 46 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. The amount of space occupied by a substance or object or enclosed within a container.






2. Exact drawing representation of a given thread type






3. To flip a shape over a line of symmetry and double the image.






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






5. Pictorial drawing of mechanism to show how parts interrelated to each other






6. Mass divided by volume.






7. Actual size of framing member






8. Nominal size of a framing member






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






10. Amount of money that clients have to spend on cost of building






11. A manufacturing process that forces material through a shaped opening.






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






13. A small angled surface formed between two surfaces.






14. Used in architecture to show exterior views of buildings






15. A straight line from the center to the circumference of a circle or sphere.






16. A two dimensional drawing of the front - top - and side views of an object






17. A regular oval shape traced by a point moving in a plane so that the sum of its distances from two other points is constant.






18. Horizontal section through building - shows width and depth of building






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






20. To cut internal threads.






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






22. Three dimensional drawing made up of equal angles of 120 degrees - most common 3-D drawing used in industry






23. A quadrilateral whose opposite sides are both parallel and equal in length






24. Used in perspectives for determining the direction of the depth lines






25. A cylindrical recess around a hole - usually to receive a bolt head or nut






26. Used to represent visible lines on a drawing






27. User coordinate system - used in the construction of 3D solids in AutoCAD






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






29. To draw a figure around another touching it at points but not cutting it.






30. Simple method of drawing threads on an orthographic drawing






31. 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

42. Gradual diminution of width or thickness in an elongated object.






43. The amount of matter an object contains.






44. A conical-shaped recess around a hole - often used to receive a tapered screw.






45. Turning around an axis or center point.






46. Constant - non-numerical relationships between the parts of a geometric figure. Examples include parallel - perpendicular - and concentric.
