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






2. 1:2






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






4. Simple method of drawing threads on an orthographic drawing






5. Handlebar endpoints used to adjust the shape of a spline.






6. Actual size of framing member






7. 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.






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






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






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






11. Lines that are not parallel to the axes.






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






13. The intersection point of the X Y and Z axes in 3D space or 0 0 0.






14. 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.






15. Method of projection showing a three-dimensional object in two dimensions by displaying various views.






16. Nominal size of a framing member






17. Heavy dashed line used to show section views.






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






19. A drawing of an object as it appears to the eye.






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






21. Used to represent visible lines on a drawing






22. The figure formed by two lines coming together.






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






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

26. Contains: Company logo Sheet title Date Drawn Drawing number Scale Revision block.






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






28. To draw one figure within another figure.






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






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






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






32. 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.

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






38. A spiral or helix feature used primarily to create springs detailed threads and similar items.






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