Lesson 2: Measurement, Scales And Dimensioning

Dimensioning

The purpose of dimensioning is to provide a clear and complete description of an object.
A complete set of dimensions will permit only one interpretation needed to construct the part. Dimensioning should follow these guidelines.

1. Accuracy: correct values must be given
2. Clearness: dimensions must be placed in appropriate positions
3. Completeness: nothing must be left out, and nothing duplicated

Readability: the appropriate line quality must be used for legibility
