Test Your Dimensioning Knowledge

Test your knowledge on the rest of the slides after reviewing the dimension rules from your class text.

1. What is wrong with the placement location of these dimensions? The longer dimensions have been positioned inside of the shorter dimensions.

2. What is wrong with the placement location of these dimensions? Dimensions should be located outside the object lines whenever possible to avoid confusion.

3. What is wrong with the dimensions below? The drawing is over dimensioned. It is not necessary to include the inside shorter dimensions.

4. What is wrong with the dimensions below? The drawing is over dimensioned. Do not repeat dimensions. They are represented only once.

5. What is wrong with the dimensions below? The dimensions are difficult to read on the right view. They should be placed on the left view.

6. What is wrong with the dimensions below? The dimension’s text should not be on the object line. Makes the dimension difficult to read.

7. What is wrong with the dimensions below? The circular dimension should be dimensioned as a diameter not a radius. The radial dimension should be dimensioned as a radius not a diameter.

8. What is wrong with the dimensions below? The vertical dimension is needed to locate the beginning of the slant.

9. What is wrong with the dimensions below? The angular dimension is difficult to read. It should be positioned off the object line.

10. What is wrong with the dimensions below? Avoid dimensioning hidden lines and poor referencing of vertical dimensions.

11. What is wrong with the dimensions below? A better dimensioning practice. Dimension between views whenever possible.

12. What is wrong with the dimensions below? The dimension locations are fine on this drawing. What can be done to improve it? This is an engineering drawing. Decimals units would be better.

13. What is wrong with the dimensions below? Angular Dimensions You cannot locate the proper locations for the proper position of the holes on the radial dimension without the angular distance.

14. What is wrong with the dimensions below? The right side view and the isometric view are not necessary to complete this drawing. The overall length of 4. 75 is also not necessary to complete this drawing.

15. What is wrong with the dimensions below? Dimensions should be placed on the contour view for clarity.
