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. 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.






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






3. 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.






4. 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






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






6. A figure having equal length sides.






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






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






9. To draw around.






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






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






12. A circular curve in which all of the points are an equal distance from the center point.






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






14. To draw one figure within another figure.






15. The figure formed by two lines coming together.






16. A light line of long dashes separated by two short dashes.






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






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






19. Arc Part of two circles that touch.






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






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






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






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






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






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






26. Nominal size of a framing member






27. Subordinate nodes that create are associated with or are consumed by the parent node item.






28. A three-sided geometric figure.






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






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






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






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






33. Exact drawing representation of a given thread type






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






35. To draw without the aid of drafting instruments.






36. Text on a drawing.






37. 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.






38. The center of model mass where balance occurs.






39. The inside radius of a formed feature.






40. Used to make lines of varying colors and widths on CAD drawings






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






42. Used up in the creation of a model or feature.






43. 1:2






44. 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.






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






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






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






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






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






50. An arrangement of copies of a feature around an imaginary cirlce a designated number of times and at a specified distance apart.
