Engineering Drawing and Design Intro.
blueprint - correct answer Contact chemical-printing process of a drawing or other image copied on paper with
white lines on a blue background. Also refers to diazo prints, even though they are not true blueprints.
cartesian coordinate system - correct answer Measurement system that uses numerical coordinates to locate
points in space according to distances measured in the same unit of length from three intersecting axes.
cartographer - correct answer Person who draws maps of geographical areas to show natural and construction
features, political boundaries, and other features.
code of ethics - correct answer Formal document that states an organization's values and the rules and
principles that employees are expected to follow.
computer-aided design - correct answer Process that uses computers for designing; also referred to as
computer-aided drafting
computer-aided design and drafting (CADD) - correct answer Process of using a computer with CADD software
for design and drafting applications.
copyright - correct answer The legal rights given to an author of an original work such as writing, music, or art.
descriptive geometry - correct answer Drafting method used to study 3-D geometry with 2-D drafting
applications, where planes of projections analyze and describe the true geometric characteristics.
detailer - correct answer Term sometimes used to describe a drafter in the structural drafting discipline.
