Project Drawings
This section is to help students who wish to present their drawings to the Workshop Technicians for manufacture.
Before issuing your project drawings to the engineering workshops please take a few minutes to scan through these guide notes, it will save you and the technician time.
The purpose of your engineering drawing is to communicate information to the technician.
Basic required information on a detail part drawing includes:
Detail Number
Name of part
Quantity
Material
Dimensions, including overall sizes.
Tolerances for accurate dimensions.

Be aware that drawings are always read as Third Angle Projection unless stated otherwise.
3D Drawings
3D rendered, wire frame, or solid model drawings are always useful as additional visual information but unless they are fully dimensioned and carry all the material, quantity, and assembly information they should not be presented as working drawings on their own.
