Is this a Technical Drawing?
Realistic 3D view
This picture doesn't preserve true measurements and shapes.
This type of projections are often used where visual appeal is
important.
What is Engineering Drawing?
Engineering drawing is a type of technical drawing that engineers
use to communicate design ideas and technical information
about a product or structure.
Engineering Drawing - Why?
(Language of Engineers)
All Engineered components worldwide rely on
Engineering drawings to translate design concepts into
manufacturable products.
An Engineering drawing is essential for the fabrication
of any component, as it provides comprehensive visual
information, including geometry, dimensions,
tolerances, and other critical specifications.
The process of representing a three-dimensional object
through multiple two-dimensional views—typically the
front, top, and side—is known as orthographic
projection.
Applications of Engineering Drawing
Engineering drawings are essential across all
manufacturing processes to ensure components are
produced within specified dimensions and tolerances.

Title Block Details
Key Functions of a Title Block:
•Identifies the drawing (title, number, revision)
•Shows ownership (company name, designer, approver)
•Provides scale and projection method
•Tracks revisions and dates
•Lists material and technical details
•Ensures standardization and compliance
•Helps with drawing organization (sheet numbers, references)
