Lettering
Writing of titles, dimensions, notes and other important particulars on a drawing is lettering
Classification:
1. Single-stroke Letters:
The thickness of the line of the letter is obtained in one stroke of the pencil.
Recommended by B.I.S.
It has two types:
i. Vertical
ii. Inclined (slope 75o with the horizontal)
• The ratio of height to width varies but in most of the cases it is 6:5.
• Lettering is generally done in capital letters.
• The lower-case letters are generally used in architectural drawings.
19/01/2017 Type of Lines, Dimensioning and Lettering 23
• The spacing between two letters should not be necessarily equal.
• The letters should be so placed that they do not appear too close together
too much apart.
• The distance between the words must be uniform and at least equal to
the height of the letters.
• Lettering, except the dimension figures, should be underlined to make
them more prominent.
Size of Alphabets for Drawing:
Main titles 6-8 mm
Sub titles 3-6 mm
Notes, dimension figures, etc. ---------------3-5 mm
Drawing no. 10-12 mm

Dimensioning
The art of writing the various sizes or measurement on the finished drawing of an object.
Types of Dimensioning:
i. Size or Functional Dimensions (S):
It indicates sizes.
e.g. length, breadth, height, diameter, etc.
ii. Location or Datum Dimensions (L):
It shows location or exact position of various constructional details within the object.

Units of Dimensioning
As for as possible all dimensions should be given in millimeters omitting
the abbreviation mm.
If another unit is used, only the dimension figures should be written. But
a foot note such as ‘All the dimensions are in centimeters’ is inserted in a
prominent place near the title box.
e.g. 15.50
0.75 (Zero must precede the decimal point.)
15.50 ± .75 ( Zero is omitted.)

The ways of Placing the Dimensions in a Series
1. Chain Dimensioning:
Dimensions are arranged in a straight line.
2. Parallel Dimensioning:
All the dimensions are shown from a common base line.
The smaller dimension is placed nearer the view.
3. Combined Dimensioning:
Chain and parallel dimensioning used simultaneously.
4. Progressive Dimensioning:
One datum or surface is selected which reads as zero. All the dimensions are referred to that point
or surface.
19/01/2017 Type of Lines, Dimensioning and Lettering 32
1. Aligned System
Types of Dimensioning
In the aligned system the
dimensions are placed perpendicular to the
dimension line in such a way that it may be
read from bottom edge or right hand edge
of the drawing sheet.
2. Unidirectional System
In the unidirectional system, the
dimensions are so oriented such that they
can be read from the bottom of the
drawing.
19/01/2017 Type of Lines, Dimensioning and Lettering 33
Some Important Rules for Dimensioning
1. All the dimensions necessary for the correct functioning of the part should be expressed directly on
the drawing.
2. Every dimension should be given, but none should be given more than once.
3. A dimension should be placed on the view where its use is shown more clearly.
4. Dimensions should be placed outside the view, as for as possible.
5. Mutual crossing of dimension lines and dimensioning between hidden lines should be avoided. Also
it should not cross any other line of the drawing.
6. An outline or a centre line should never be used as a dimension line. A centre line may be
extended to serve as an extension line.
7. Aligned system of dimensioning is recommended.
8. Dimension lines should be drawn at least 8 mm away from the outlines and from each other.
9. The extension line should be extended by about 3 mm beyond the dimension line.

SIMILARLY IN CASE OF TINY OBJECTS DIMENSIONS MUST BE INCREASED
FOR ABOVE PURPOSE. HENCE THIS SCALE IS CALLED ENLARGING SCALE.
HERE THE RATIO CALLED REPRESENTATIVE FACTOR IS MORE THAN UNITY.
DIMENSIONS OF LARGE OBJECTS MUST BE REDUCED TO ACCOMMODATE
ON STANDARD SIZE DRAWING SHEET.THIS REDUCTION CREATES A SCALE
OF THAT REDUCTION RATIO, WHICH IS GENERALLY A FRACTION..
SUCH A SCALE IS CALLED REDUCING SCALE
AND
THAT RATIO IS CALLED REPRESENTATIVE FACTOR.

  • 26. Dimensioning The art of writing the various sizes or measurement on the finished drawing of an object. Types of Dimensioning: i. Size or Functional Dimensions (S): It indicates sizes. e.g. length, breadth, height, diameter, etc. ii. Location or Datum Dimensions (L): It shows location or exact position of various constructional details within the object. L L S 19/01/2017 Type of Lines, Dimensioning and Lettering 26 L S

  • 29. Units of Dimensioning As for as possible all dimensions should be given in millimeters omitting the abbreviation mm. If another unit is used, only the dimension figures should be written. But a foot note such as ‘All the dimensions are in centimeters’ is inserted in a prominent place near the title box. e.g. 15.50 0.75 (Zero must precede the decimal point.) 15.50 ± .75 ( Zero is omitted.) 19/01/2017 Type of Lines, Dimensioning and Lettering 29

  • 32. The ways of Placing the Dimensions in a Series 1. Chain Dimensioning: Dimensions are arranged in a straight line. 2. Parallel Dimensioning: All the dimensions are shown from a common base line. The smaller dimension is placed nearer the view. 3. Combined Dimensioning: Chain and parallel dimensioning used simultaneously. 4. Progressive Dimensioning: One datum or surface is selected which reads as zero. All the dimensions are referred to that point or surface. 19/01/2017 Type of Lines, Dimensioning and Lettering 32
  • 33. 1. Aligned System Types of Dimensioning In the aligned system the dimensions are placed perpendicular to the dimension line in such a way that it may be read from bottom edge or right hand edge of the drawing sheet. 2. Unidirectional System In the unidirectional system, the dimensions are so oriented such that they can be read from the bottom of the drawing. 19/01/2017 Type of Lines, Dimensioning and Lettering 33
  • 34. Some Important Rules for Dimensioning 1. All the dimensions necessary for the correct functioning of the part should be expressed directly on the drawing. 2. Every dimension should be given, but none should be given more than once. 3. A dimension should be placed on the view where its use is shown more clearly. 4. Dimensions should be placed outside the view, as for as possible. 5. Mutual crossing of dimension lines and dimensioning between hidden lines should be avoided. Also it should not cross any other line of the drawing. 6. An outline or a centre line should never be used as a dimension line. A centre line may be extended to serve as an extension line. 7. Aligned system of dimensioning is recommended. 8. Dimension lines should be drawn at least 8 mm away from the outlines and from each other. 9. The extension line should be extended by about 3 mm beyond the dimension line. 19/01/2017 Type of Lines, Dimensioning and Lettering 34

HENCE THIS SCALE IS CALLED ENLARGING SCALE. HERE THE RATIO CALLED REPRESENTATIVE FACTOR IS MORE THAN UNITY. DIMENSIONS OF LARGE OBJECTS MUST BE REDUCED TO ACCOMMODATE ON STANDARD SIZE DRAWING SHEET.THIS REDUCTION CREATES A SCALE OF THAT REDUCTION RATIO, WHICH IS GENERALLY A FRACTION.. SUCH A SCALE IS CALLED REDUCING SCALE AND THAT RATIO IS CALLED REPRESENTATIVE FACTOR.
