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 curved surface connecting two surfaces which form an angle.






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






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






4. To divide into two parts of equal size or length.






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






6. Used in AutoCAD to show various materials in sectional drawings






7. User coordinate system - Used in the construction of 3D solids in AutoCAD






8. Initials of the person who drafted the drawing.






9. To draw one figure within another figure.






10. Geometry used for construction purposes only. Inventor cannot use construction geometry to build sketched features.






11. A line connecting opposite corners of a figure.






12. Two or more iMates linked together and added to a single; used for the same assembly operation.






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






14. Lines that are not parallel to the axes.






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






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






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






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






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






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






21. 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.






22. The perimeter of a circle.






23. The figure formed by two lines coming together.






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






25. A CADD drawing aid formed by a network of uniformly spaced points or lines on the screen.






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






27. To draw around.






28. The part of the computer that processes input information.

31. A drawing that uses more than one orthographic view to depict a single object.






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






33. Horizontal section through building shows width and depth of building






34. 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.






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

40. Piece of tracing paper that is placed on top of a sketch or drawing.






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






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






43. The first view placed in a drawing to which all other views are added.






44. Constraints that establish geometric relationships and positions between one component face edge or axis and another component face edge or axis.






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






46. A grouping of one or more design components.






47. A line that defines an axis of symmetry or the center of a circular feature.






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






49. 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






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