1. graphical com- Primarily a course in _______ for engineers
munication
2. writing, verbally, What other forms of communication do engineers utilize?
mathematically
3. engineers, peo- Who do design engineers communicate with?
ple who use, in-
vest, sell, make
their products
4. sketches Generally rough with less detail, structure, and restrictions. It's a way to capture a
design idea quickly
5. multiview de- A standard engineering document that fully describes a 3-dimensional object in
tailed engineer- 2-D space (often on paper)
ing drawings
6. computer solid A computer-based model that fully defines a 3-dimensional object
models
7. computer-aided CAD
design
8. CAD Uses a computer as a tool for design and drafting
9. 3D models Can be used to analyze robustness and performance of the design
10. 3D models Saves money because no prototypes are needed
11. 3D models Increases reliability margin by providing a way to analyze potential failure mech-
anisms, which are expensive to verify by testing
12. Drawings communicate three things about the objects they represent:

shape, size, other
information
13. shape Views communicate the _______ of an object
14. size Dimensions communicate the _______ of an object
15. other informa- Notes communicate non-graphic information about manufacturing processes
tion such as drill, ream, bore, paint, plate, grind, heat treat, remove burrs
16. 3D object, 2D The goal is to be able to represent (accurately, unambiguously, and explicitly) a
piece of paper, _______ on a _______. This requires the use of _______.
projection theory
17. third-angle or- A parallel projection technique in which the plane of projection is positioned
thographic pro- between the observer and the object and is perpendicular to the parallel lines
jection of sight; use the so-called glass box model; common in the U.S. and Canada
18. third-angle pro- U.S. American National Standard Institute (ANSI)
jections
19. first-angle pro- Europe International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
jection
20. multiview draw- Uses three of the six principal views (mutually perpendicular) to represent a 3D
ing object (top, front, and right side)
21. symmetric object An axially _______ such as a cone or cylinder will only require two views
22. principal view A single view can show only two of the three principal dimensions
23. drawing Should only contain the views needed to clearly and completely describe the
object
24. drawing Use minimum number of views necessary to completely describe the part
