Engineering Drawings: Detail Drawings A short lecture on Detail Drawings as per the Australian Standard AS1100 By Paul Briozzo What is a Detail Drawing ? An Engineering Detail Drawing contains the key points to enable the manufacture or description of a single component that defines and communicates part of a complete design to other interested parties. Detail Drawing: An Example Detail Drawings must provide sufficient information to enable the manufacture a part. • Enough orthogonal views : enough views to adequate describe the component. • Dimensions : Must be evenly distributed, structured and not duplicated. • Scale : Drawing must state the scale used to fit the component onto the drawing sheet. • The type of projection : Third Angle Projection is mandatory in ENGG1960. • Drafting Standard (AS1100) : This is effectively covered in prescribed texts. • The name or title of drawing : What is the name of the component ? • The drawing number : What is the number (in-house system) of the component ? • Dimensional units used : mm, m, inches, feet etc. • Tolerances : What are the manufacturing tolerances for each part of the component. • Surface texture (or roughness) : How smooth/rough each part of the component has to be. • Treatments (coatings, tempers etc.) : Does the component need protective coatings ? • Reference to assembly drawing : What does my component fit into ? • Material : What material is the component manufactured from ? • Drafter (who drew it), Checker (who checked it), Approver (who approved it) and dates • Zones : Where on the drawing are you referring to ? • Revision : What has been revised and why and what revision is this drawing ? • Sheet Size : A4, A3, A2, A1 or A0 • Company : School of AMME, University of Sydney • Sheets Reference (eg. Sheet 1 of 3) : When more than one sheet is required. Enough Orthogonal
