accurate and confirm that parts fit together. Use your com-
pleted part solid models to develop fully dimensioned 2-D de-
tail drawings. Place a 3-D model in the upper-left corner of the
drawing for use as a visualization aid. Assemble the part models
and create a 2-D assembly drawing with a correlated parts list.
3. Include the following general notes at the lower left corner of
each sheet .5 in. (13 mm) each way from the corner border lines:
NOTES:
1. DIMENSIONING AND TOLERANCING PER ASME

2. REMOVE ALL BURRS AND SHARP EDGES.
Note number 2 does not normally apply to the assembly draw-
ings. Additional general notes may be required, depending on
the specifications of each individual assignment. Use the follow-
ing for tolerances for unspecified inch values. A tolerance block
is recommended as described in Chapter 2.

choose, or if you are assigned to solve these advanced problems,
you should study Chapters 16, 17, and 18 as you encounter parts
in your problems that relate to content found in those chapters.
This is the kind of challenge that you can face in the real world of
engineering drafting. Often you have to go ahead on your own or
seek additional instruction when you encounter new and varied
obstacles. The following are the types of features that require you
to study additional content beyond this chapter:
■Linkages, cams, gears, and bearings in Chapter 16.
■Belt and chain drives in Chapter 17.
■Welding representations and assembly of welded parts in
Chapter 18.
Special Note: Some problems in this chapter contain errors,
missing information, or slight inaccuracies. This is intentional
and is meant to encourage you to apply appropriate problem-
solving methods, engineering, and drafting standards in order to
solve the problems. This is meant to force you to think about
each part and how parts fit together in the assembly. As in real-
world projects, the engineering problem should be considered as
a basis for your preliminary layouts. Always question inaccura-
cies in project designs and consult with the proper standards
and other sources. In some cases, an error might be the source of
engineering changes provided by your instructor, but this is de-
termined by your specific course objectives. Other situations re-
quire that corrections be made during the development of the
original design drawings. This is not intended as a source of
frustration but is considered part of an engineering drafter’s
daily responsibility in project development.
DRAFTING
TEMPLATES
To access CADD template files
with predefined drafting
settings, go to the Student
Companion Website, select
Student Downloads,
Drafting Templates and then
select the appropriate
template file. The ASME-Inch
and ASME-Metric drafting
templates follow ASME, ISO,
and related mechanical drafting
standards. Drawing templates
include standard sheet sizes
and formats and a variety of
appropriate drawing settings
and content. You can also use
a utility such as the AutoCAD
DesignCenter to add content
from the drawing templates to
your own drawings and
templates. Consult with your
instructor to determine which
template drawing and drawing
content to use.
NOTE: Each problem assignment is given as an
engineering layout to help simulate actual real-
world drafting conditions. Problems become
more complex as you continue.
Dimensions and views on engineer layouts may not beplaced
in accordance with acceptable standards. You need to carefully re-
view this chapter and previous chapter contents when preparing
the layout sketch. In some problems, the engineer layout assumes
certain information, such as the symmetry of a part or the align-
ment of holes. You need to place enough dimensions or draw lines
between features to fully dimension each part. In addition, evaluate
proper tolerancing between mating components to make sure they
fit during assembly. For example, a 1-in. shaft does not always fit in
a 1-in. hole, depending on the tolerance applied to thefeatures.
Most of the Chapter 15, Working Drawings, problems can be
drawn without studying other chapters in this section. However,
several of the given problems are advanced and challenging and
are best solved after you study all Section Four chapters. If you
