LEARNING GUIDE OVERVIEW Sketching is one of the primary means of graphic communication. The ability to sketch is an essential tool in conveying original ideas from the engineer to the designer and from the designer to the drafter. As instrument drawing becomes less prevalent in industry, the ability to create accurate technical sketches becomes more important. In this learning material, the students should be able to communicate technical information through different types of sketches. This will cover the purpose of sketching, materials needed for sketching, techniques for sketching, the types of sketches, and differences between isometric, oblique and perspective and multiview sketches Competencies will be demonstrated by completing the job sheets and the unit test with a minimum score of 75 percent.

INFORMATION SHEET NO: 1
SKETCHING Sketching is a freehand drawing process that allows detailers, designers, engineers, architects, technicians and tradespersons to record their ideas quickly on paper without the use of tools. Once they have recorded their ideas, they can revise and refine their sketches for presentation to their supervisors or clients. Sketching is also helpful in preliminary planning of a drawing or layout before using tools.
A. FORMS OF SKETCHES 1. Design sketches - Design sketches are rough sketches that are used to quickly capture an idea. They tend to have less detail, structure and restrictions than freehand or technical illustrations.
FIG. 1. A ROUGH SKETCH WITH NOTES ABOUT IMPORTANT FEATURES. 2. Freehand technical sketches - Freehand technical sketches can be multiview or pictorial sketches. This type of sketch usually includes more detail and structure than design sketches. They also typically include dimensions (see Fig. 2). 3. Technical illustrations - Technical illustrations include more detail, structure, and restrictions than other types of sketches. The objective here is to create a sketch that looks as close to the final object as possible.

B. TOOLS AND MATERIALS FOR SKETCHING Paper You can use a plain paper for sketching. If you need to refine the sketch, use tracing paper. Control proportions while sketching by using cross-section paper, also called graph paper or squared paper. There are specially ruled graph papers for particular kinds of drawing such as isometric and perspective. You can sketch on any convenient size of paper. However, A4 size drawing paper will only be allowed for this course as an official drawing paper. Pencils and Eraser Most drafters like to use soft lead pencils (grades F, H or HB), properly sharpened. They also use an eraser that is good for soft leads, such as a plastic eraser or a kneaded-rubber eraser. Use drafter’s pencil sharpener to remove the wooden part of the pencil from the lead. Make the lead of the pencil sharp by using sandpaper block or pad. Four types of points are used for sketching: sharp, near-sharp, near-dull, and dull. The points should make the following kinds: • Sharp point—a thin black line for center, dimension, and extension lines • Near-sharp point—visible or object lines • Near-dull point—cutting-plane line and border lines • Dull point—construction lines
FIG. 4 FOUR CONVENIENT PENCIL POINTS FOR SKETCHING
C. TECHNIQUES FOR SKETCHING •
Horizontal lines should be sketched by moving the hand and pencil from the left to the right if right handed. Avoid rotating your wrist, as this will cause the line to arc. FIG. 5. DIRECTION OF PENCIL IN SKETCHING HORIZONTAL LINE IS FROM LEFT TO RIGHT
•
Vertical lines should be sketched by moving the hand and pencil from the top in a downward direction. Keep the wrist locked to avoid arcing of line. FIG. 6. DIRECTION OF PENCIL IN SKETCHING VERTICAL LINE IS FROM TOP TO BOTTOM

Angled lines should be sketched by moving the hand and pencil from the left to the right and angling upward or downward. Rotating the paper so lines are horizontal or vertical is also a good practice. Avoid rotating your wrist, as this will cause the line to arc. STEP 1 STEP 2 STEP 3 Arcs and circles should be sketched by A. SKETCHING THE CIRCLE WITHIN A SQUARE creating horizontal and vertical center lines at the center point of the arc or circle. Next, estimate the radius of the arc or circle on each center line and form a box with lines parallel to the center lines. Now start at the top of the box and create four arcs moving the pencil left to right and rotating STEP 1 STEP 2 STEP 3 the paper each time. B. MARKING OFF THE LENGTH OF RADIUS ON ALL LINES FIG. 7.

E. CONCEPTS AND PRINCIPLES UNDERLYING MULTIVIEW, ISOMETRIC, OBLIQUE, AND PICTORIAL SKETCHING.
A multiview sketch shows different views of an object as seen from different positions and arranged in a standard order.
Pictorial sketches show height, width and depth of an object in one view.
The three basic types of pictorials are isometric, oblique, and perspective.
Concepts in Isometric Drawing 1. In an isometric sketch the three axes are equally spaced 120° apart. The prefix "iso" means equal. 2. The isometric axes are most often positioned so that the receding lines are 30° off the horizontal. Other positions are possible depending on what surfaces of the object are being emphasized. 3. Circular shapes will typically appear as ellipses in isometric sketches. Ellipses must be oriented according to the plane in which they appear. 4. Lines parallel to the isometric axes are called "isometric lines". You can measure along these lines. 5. Lines that are not parallel to the isometric axes are called "non-isometric lines". You cannot measure along these lines. 6. A standard angle measuring device such as a protractor cannot be used to measure angles in isometric. Angles are drawn by locating their end points. Concepts in Oblique Sketching: 1. The front view is normal to the viewer's line of sight in an oblique sketch. 2. A circle drawn on the frontal plane will appear as a circle. A curve drawn on the frontal plane will appear true shape. 3. Circles and curves appearing on the side and top planes will be distorted. 4. Receding edges can be sketched at any angle except vertical or horizontal but are usually drawn at an angle of 30°, 45° or 60°. 5. The long side of an object should be shown in the frontal plane to lessen distortion. 6. Cavalier oblique pictorials are drawn or sketched at full depth. Cabinet oblique pictorials are drawn or sketched at a reduced depth (usually half).

Concepts in Perspective Sketching 1. The most common types of perspective drawings are one-point perspective and twopoint perspective. 2. A perspective sketch is the most realistic of the pictorial sketches because it appears the most natural. Features that are farther from the observer appear shorter than features closer to the observer. 3. The receding axes converge at the vanishing point and are not parallel as they are in isometric and oblique drawings. TO VANISHING POINT DRAFTING STATION
FIG. 12. PERSPECTIVE SKETCHES Concepts in Multiview Sketching 1. Choose an appropriate number of views to fully describe the shape of the object. 2. If an object can be described with only two dimensions, a one-view drawing may be sufficient. Two, three or more views may be necessary to fully describe the shape of more complicated objects.
