    Purpose of Drawings

    Drawings are used to convey information about a wide range items such as:Architectural building layoutsElectrical wiringPneumatic or Hydraulic layoutsLocation of equipmentHow to assemble equipmentDetails of equipment

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Types of Drawings

    CivilArchitecturalStructuralMechanicalPlumbingPipingPneumatic/HydraulicElectrical

    This is a general list of types of drawings that can be created. The following slides will define the purpose of the drawing type what that type of drawings contains.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Engineering Drawings

    A general engineering drawing can be divided into the following five major areas or parts.

    1.Title block

    2.Grid system

    3.Revision block

    4.Notes and legends

    5.Engineering drawing (graphic portion)

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Drawing Sizes

    Drawings come in a alphabetical list of sizes for A to F with D size being the most typical

    A (letter)

    8 by 11inches

    B - 11 by 17inches

    C - 17 by 22 inches

    D - 22 by 34 inches

    E - 34 by 44 inches

    F - 28 by 40 inches

    Metric sizes

    A3 (297 x 420)

    A2 (420 x 594)

    A1 (594 x 841)

    A0 (841 x 1189)

    There are also European sizes, such as A4, which need not be discussed here.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Title Blocks

    Title blocks are the beginning point of a drawing information.

    XYZ COMPANY

    Title blocks are typically located in the lower right corner of a drawing.

    While contents from manufacturer to manufacturer may vary Title Blocks typically contain the following:

    Drawing Title: identification of what the drawing containsCompany name: the company that created the drawing or manufactured the items drawinDrawing scale: the scale the drawing was drawn in to the real world size of the itemHow many sheets to the drawing there are: some drawings, especially wiring drawings and assembly drawings require many sheets to detail the item drawinWhich sheet this drawing is: what is the sheet you are currently looking at.Designer name or initials: who designed the itemWho drew the drawing, name or initialsWho checked the drawing, name or initialsDate drawing was createdRevision block to list changes to the drawing.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Revision Blocks

    The revision block notes any changes made to a drawing

    A

    Throughout a drawing the revision listed in the revision block may be indicated by a symbol near the modified portion of the drawing such as:

    Portions of a typical revision block are:

    REV: the revision usually listed alphabetically with the first revision starting at ADATE: the date the revision was madeDESCRIPTION: a short description of the change madeBY: the initials of the person making the changeCHKD BY: the initials of the person who checked the change

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Parts Lists

    Parts Lists are called Bill of Materials. It is a list of the material that is used to build the item that is

    Bill of Material lists usually include the following:

    ITEM: a numerical list of the items

    QTY:The quantity of this item number used.

    MANUF: The manufacturer of the item

    DESCRIPTION: a brief description of what the item it

    PART NUMBER: the part of number of the item, usually the one supplied by the manufacturer of the item.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Scales

    Drawing scale is a relationship of the size or distance of the item on a drawing to the real item.For example a scale of = 1 means a measurement of inch (the quote symbol is a shorthand for inches) on the drawing equals 1 foot ( the apostrophe symbol is shorthand for feet) of the real world item.

    Add some more examples here of typical scaling here.

    Scaling a drawing varies from Architectural to Engineering preferences.

    For some examples see the table below:

    Mechanical Engineer1 = full size (1/2, 1/8, etc.)2 (3, 4, etc)True size of part of true size2 times true sizeArchitect12 = 1- 06 = 1 03 = 1 0Its true size true size true sizeCivil Engineer 1 = 11 = 101 = 2 miles1/12 true size1/120 of true size1/63,360 true size

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Grid System

    A drawing grid system allows a specific point on a drawing to be referenced or found.

    A

    B

    C

    1

    2

    3

    4

    5

    6

    This point on the drawing is B-3

    Because drawings tend to be large and complex, finding a specific point or piece of equipment on a drawing can be quite difficult. This is especially true when one wire or pipe run is continued on a second drawing.

    To help locate a specific point on a referenced print, most drawings, especially Piping and Instrument Drawings (P&ID) and electrical schematic drawings, have a grid system.

    The grid can consist of letters, numbers, or both that run horizontally and vertically around the drawing

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Basic Lines

    Object linesHidden linesCutting plane linesCenterlinesExtension linesDimension linesLeaders linePhantom lines

    The following slides will detail the purpose each basic line type.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Object Line

    The object line is a heavy, dark line which identifies the visible edges of the drawn object or the surface of an object.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Hidden Line

    The hidden line is used to show features or edges of an object that is not visible. It is a broken line of medium thickness.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Center Line

    The center line is used to locate the center of features. It is usually a fine, broken line made of alternating short and long dashes.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Dimension Line / Extension Line

    Dimension Lines are used to show the extent of a dimension.Extension Lines are use to extend a point from an object.

    Dimension Line

    Extension Line

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Phantom

    Phantom lines are used to represents the outline of an adjacent part.The also are used to show an alternate position of a given part

    Phantom

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Leader

    A leader is a fine line used to define a point or area. It may have a note, dimension value or a number at the end of it

    Grind Surface

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Break Lines

    Short Break LineBreak lines are also used to separate internal and external features with broken-out sectionsBreak lines are uses to terminate a view to conserve drawing space and avoid congestion.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    The break line is being used to show a part reduced in length on the drawing to conserve space.

    250 feet

    3

    Break Lines Example

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Section Lines

    Section lines are used where a surface is illustrated as cut. It normally is used in a sectional view.The lines are normally drawn diagonally.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Dimensioning Systems

    Different systems of dimensioning are generally used

    Fractional inch

    Decimal inch

    SI Metric

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Fractional Inch Dimensioning

    2 Dia

    21/32 Dia

    3/16

    1/2

    1 9/16 Dia

    This type of dimensioning is more commonly used in architectural drawings. Tight tolerances are difficult to achieve in the fractional inch dimensioning methods.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Decimal Inch Dimensioning

    2.00

    .656

    .19

    .50

    1.56

    This type of dimensioning is more commonly used in mechanical drawings since it allows more accuracy and tighter tolerances. Most measuring tools, like dial calipers are scaled in decimal.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Metric Dimensioning

    50

    16.5

    Drawing Legends

    Legends are boxes drawn on the drawing to illustrate some of the common or uncommon symbols used.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Isometric Drawings

    Isometric drawings are designed to show a three dimensional view of an object.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Perspective

    Perspective is a method of drawing things as the eye sees them.

    Vanishing point

    Note: as shown in the example drawing this method distorts the image of the box. The next method of viewing, called orthographic projection is used to remove this distortion

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Orthographic Drawings

    Orthographic projection shows the drawn object from different views

    Projection view

    Top view

    Left side

    Right side

    Bottom

    Front

    Rear

    The three views normally drawn are:

    Top, which is sometimes called the plan view

    Front, or front elevation

    Right side, or right elevation

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Single Line Drawings

    The single line format represents all electrical lines, plumbing, air lines, hydraulic lines and piping, regardless of size, as single line. System equipment is connected to the lines are represented by simple standard symbols.By simplifying connections and equipment as single lines allow the system's equipment and instrumentation relationships to be clearly understood by the reader.These types of drawings are also called Schematics.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Civil

    Civil drawings are used to represent construction on the earth or ground areas.Civil drawings are sometimes called:

    site plans

    plot plans

    survey plans.

    They will show contours of the earth, building locations, construction features, utilities, etc.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Contour Lines

    Contour lines are used in drawings called topographic maps and are used to identify physical features which uses contour lines to join points of equal elevation (height) and thus show valleys and hills, and the steepness of slopes. The elevation or height is a number drawn along the line.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Architectural

    Architectural drawings or plans are used to illustrate the design of a project.They include items such as:

    Working drawings

    Structural drawings

    Floor plans

    Elevation drawings

    Section drawings

    Flow diagrams

    See 5.2

    Working drawings: have much of the information the architects design drawing contains, but is much more detailed and are used by the builders for erection of a building. The are fully dimensioned and can include specific drawings for utilities, lighting, plumbing.

    Structural drawings: these drawings will include the framework of a building, the foundations, the supporting columns.

    Floor Plans: these layouts show the arrangement and location of different pieces of machinery, offices and any other objects.

    Elevation drawings: are related to floor plans and show the vertical views of a building.

    Section drawings: sections are cutaway drawings that show details of construction and areas.

    Flow diagrams: these are used when a pattern of product flow needs to be documented and are intended to show how material may flow through a plant.

    Electrical

    Electrical drawings are also single line drawings or schematics that uses symbols for various electrical equipment.They are usually drawn in a style called a ladder diagram.Another form of drawing is a wiring diagram which illustrates the wiring in a orthographic or pictorial style.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Example Ladder

    Ladder schematics or diagrams are drawn with the circuit between two vertical lines, usually the power that supplies the circuit, thus each line creates a rung to the ladder.

    Termination or connection

    Terminal strip and terminal designation

    Terminals or terminations of wiring are shown with a dot at the crossed wiring. A common practice used to illustrate terminal strips through out drawings is to put a square around the termination dot and label that symbol with the terminal strip number followed by the terminal position on the terminal strip.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Graphical Symbols

    Graphical symbols are used on electrical diagrams to illustrate the wiring between electrical devices and terminals. The electrical devices are either shown in block diagram form or using commonly defined symbols. The following symbols are but a few of those that can be used.A chart should be included on drawings to illustrate any added by the manufacturer.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Graphical Symbols Contd

    DISCONNECT Symbol - DISC

    CIRCUIT BREAKER - CB

    Or for a single CB

    Note how the dashed line is used to indicate how the contacts are mechanically connected together and are operated simultaneously. This is a common practice for switches and occasionally relay contacts.

    Relay and Solenoid Symbols

    RELAYS, TIMERS, ETC.

    Normally Open Contact

    Normally Closed Contact

    Coil

    SOLENOIDS, BRAKES, ETC.

    It is a common practice to put terminal circles (as illustrated on the solenoid) at the end of the contact and coil symbols to illustrate termination numbers of the coils to plug in sockets and mounts for the relays.

    Secondary or Output

    Primary or Input

    There are many types of transformers with variations of secondary and primary windings. The symbol is usually modified to illustrate those differences and the main purpose of the symbol is to illustrate the required connection of wiring and jumpers for the proper function of the transformer. A common practice is to note the ratings of the transfomer.

    Circuit is connected when switch is in this position.

    For a multiple position selector switch each position of the switch is illustrated with a dashed line. Where contacts are made in the circuit at dot or an X is used to show when a circuit is connected when the switch is rotated to that position. Normally the off position is illustrated at the center with the contacts drawn in the state of the off position. For switches with more than three positions more dashed lines are add with labels to illustrate the position.

    For a two position selector switch the state of the contacts are drawn in the off or first position of the switch. When the switch is operated the contacts will change with the open contacts closing and the closed contacts opening.

    Control devices, that are represented in the wiring diagrams, are photocells, limit switches, local lights, solenoids, air pressure switches, etc.

    These control devices can be identified by the wiring diagram line number or by I/O address and are represented on both "WD" and "EL drawings for a control area. The device will have a suffix as follows; photocells (PE), proximity switch (PRS), limit switches (LS), local lights (LS), solenoids (SOL), air pressure switches (PS), tape switch (FS), etc. When a line number is used, such as 211LS, the 2 indicates that the device is on page two line 11 of the "WD" or wiring diagram and that it is a limit switch.

    When the I/O address is employed, a leading digit of "I" or ."1 " is used for inputs. For Example; I0056PE or 10056PE indicates a photocell connected to input address 56. A leading digit of "O" or "0" is used for outputs. For Example; O0037ll or 00037lL indicates a local light connected to output address 37.

    Wire Identification

    Conductors are identified at each termination by marking with a number to corresponding with the diagram on the wire

    To differentiate between different voltages, controls, etc., a specification of wire color is set as an industry standard. Conductors are usually color-coded as follows:

    (1) Black--Line, load and control circuits at line voltage, AC or DC.

    (2) Red--AC control circuits.

    (3) Blue--DC control circuits.

    (4) Yellow--Interlock control circuits wired from an external power source.

    (5) Green (with or without a yellow stripe)--Equipment grounding conductors.

    (6) White--Grounded circuit conductor.

    The labeling of wiring, cables and terminals is also a standard used.

    Conductors are identified at each termination by marking with a number to corresponding with the diagram on the wire

    Terminals on terminal blocks shall be plainly and permanently marked to correspond with the identification shown on the electrical diagram(s).

    Numerical cross-reference systems are required to trace the action of a circuit in complex line diagrams.

    Common rules help to quickly simplify the operation of complex circuits.

    NO Contacts

    Relays, contactors, and magnetic motor starters normally have more than one set of auxiliary contacts. These contacts may appear at several different locations in the line diagram. Numerical cross-reference systems quickly identify the location and type of contacts controlled by a given device. A numerical cross-reference system consists of numbers in parenthesis to the right of the line diagram.

    NC Contacts

    In addition to NO contacts, there are also NC contacts in a circuit.To differentiate between NO and NC, NC contacts are indicated as a number which is underlined

    Panel and door layouts are usually a part of the electrical wiring diagrams to show the location of the devices that are mounted in the panel.

    Panel Layout. - The physical position or arrangement of the components on a panel or chassis. In a panel layout the parts (such as relays, fuses, terminals for wiring, wire duct or raceways, etc.) are mounted on a removable back plate within a enclosure.

    The parts are usually shown in a block form in their general location and in the size or window area the component will take on the plate.

    All the components must be labeled as they are on the drawings and the terminal numbering should match terminal notes in the schematic.

    The panel layout is a sheet of the overall electrical diagram.

    Door Layout. The panel door layout illustrates the location of all the pushbuttons, switches, lights, etc., and labels for those components.

    BOM - with it a BOM (Bill of Materials) is also drawn which lists all the components, by manufacturers part numbers, that are contained within the electrical drawings and panel assembly, of which the back plate and door is but a part.

    Block Diagrams

    Block diagrams are simple block diagrams which provides a means to illustrate a control system in a simple graphic format.Block diagrams are also used to provide functional information.Block diagrams are also used to illustrate the interconnection of different machines

    Where the complexity or the control system warrants. a block diagram of control functions may be furnished. Each block shall be identified and cross-referenced in a manner that the internal circuitry may be found readily on the elementary diagram.

    Not all electronics prints are drawn to the level of detail depicting the individual controls and devices, nor is this level of information always necessary. These simpler drawings are called block diagrams. Block diagrams provide a means of representing any type of electronic circuit or system in a simple graphic format.

    Block diagrams are designed to present flow or functional information about the circuit or system, not detailed component data.

    Whatever the block represents will be written inside.

    Electrical Layouts - EL

    Electrical layouts are architectural drawings of the building that shows and identifies the electrical devices associated with a electrical diagram.

    The numbering system, for the set of drawings which shows the conveyor path and relative equipment locations with dimensions of all electrical devices external to an electrical control panel, starts with a two letter prefix "EL" for Electrical Layout Following the "EL" is a number that represents the control panel. Following this number is a sheet number.

    For example; drawing number EL-XXX-2 would be an electrical layout drawing associated with XXX electrical control panel and sheet number 2 in the set.

    The first few sheets, in a set of "EL drawings, are conveyor path or equipment location layouts. These drawings show the approximate location of externally mounted electrical devices associated to that particular control panel.

    The next sheet(s) are the electrical equipment schedules. These drawing sheets state the device number, mounting bracket type, means of actuation, function, and manufacture's name/part number for the externally mounted devices.

    Symbols and Drawings

    Piping drawings show the size and location of pipes, fittings, and valves.To read and interpret Piping drawings and Piping and Instrument drawings (P&IDs), the student must learn the meaning of the symbols. This presentation discusses some the common symbols that are used to depict system components.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Piping Drawings

    The single line format is most commonly used in Piping and P&ID drawings. The single line format represents all piping, regardless of size, as single line. All system equipment is represented by simple standard symbols.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Pipe Crossing

    The crossing of pipes without connections is normally shown without interrupting the line. When there is a need to show that one pipe must pass behind another, the line representing the pipe farthest may be shown with a break, where the other pipe passes in front of it

    Far pipe

    Near pipe

    Connections

    Permanent connections, whether made by welding, gluing or soldering, may be shown as a heavy dot Detachable connections are shown by a single thick line.

    Fittings

    If standard symbols for fittings like tees, elbows, crossings are not shown on a drawing, they are represented by a continuous line. A circular symbol for a tee or elbow may be used when necessary to show piping coming toward or moving away from the viewer.

    Pictorial Drawings

    Pictorial or double line drawings present the same type information as a single line, but the equipment is represented as if it had been photographed. This format is rarely used since it requires much more effort to produce than a single line drawing and does not present any more information as to how the system functions.

    P&IDs

    The piping of a single system may contain more than a single medium. Forexample, although the main process flow line may carry water, the associated auxiliary piping may carry compressed air, inert gas, or hydraulic fluid. Also, a fluid system diagram may also depict instrument signals and electrical wires as well as piping. The following slide shows some commonly used symbols for indicating the medium carried by the piping and for differentiating between piping, instrumentation signals, and electrical wires.

    The combination of a valve and an actuator is commonly called a control valve.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Balloon Labeling

    A control valve may serve any number of functions within a fluid system. To differentiate between valve uses, a balloon labeling system is used to identify the function of a control valve.The first letter used in the valve designator indicates the parameter to be controlled by the valve. For example:

    F = flow

    T = temperature

    L = level

    P = pressure

    H = hand (manually operated valve

    Flow Control

    Valve

    FC

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    One of the main purposes of a P&ID is to provide functional information about how instrumentation in a system or piece of equipment interfaces with the system or piece of equipment.The symbols used to represent instruments and their loops can be divided into four categories. Sensed ParameterType of Indicator or ControllerType of ComponentType of SignalF = flowT = temperatureP = pressureI = currentL = levelV = voltageZ = positionR = recorderI = indicatorC = controllerT = transmitterM = modifierE = elementI = currentV = voltageP = pneumatic

    The first three columns above are combined such that the resulting instrument identifier indicates its sensed parameter, the function of the instrument, and the type of instrument. The fourth column is used only in the case of an instrument modifier and is used to indicate the types of signals being modified.

    The following is a list of examples:

    FIC = flow indicating controllerFM = flow modifierPM = pressure modifierTE= temperature elementTR= temperature recorderLIC = level indicating controllerTT= temperature transmitterPT= pressure transmitterFE= flow elementFI= flow indicatorTI= temperature indicatorFC= flow controller

    Sensors and detectors by themselves are not sufficient to create usable system indications. Each sensor or detector must be coupled with appropriate modifiers and/or transmitters.

    The exceptions to this are certain types of local instrumentation having mechanical readouts, such as bourdon tube pressure gages and bimetallic thermometers. The slide illustrates various examples of modifiers and transmitters and also illustrates the common notations used to indicate the location of an instrument, for example local or board mounted.

    Transmitters are used to convert the signal from a sensor or detector to a form that can be sent to a remote point f o r processing, controlling, or monitoring. The output can be electronic (voltage or current), pneumatic, or hydraulic. The slide illustrates symbols for several specific types of transmitters.

    Topographical Maps

    Maps which describe in detail local features of the earths surface, either natural or man-made, are called topographic maps (or drawings). Data taken from surveys are used to build these drawings. Surveying is the actual measurement of distances, elevations, and directions on the earths surface.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Contours

    Most topographical maps are drawn as contours.Contours are lines drawn on a map to show points of equal elevation; that is, all points on a single contour line have the same elevation. A contour interval is the vertical distance between horizontal planes passing through successive contours as illustrated in the following slide..

    Geology and Mining Terms

    Strike - The bearing of a horizontal line in a plane, customarily measured from north.Dip - Includes both an angle and a direction between planesStratum or Seam - layer or deposit bounded by parallel bedding planes.Vein - A deposit in a fissure or fault.Fault - A displacement of one segment with respect to another formation. Thickness - perpendicular distance between the two bedding planes of a stratum, seam, or vein.Outcrop - If a sloping stratum continues without faults, it eventually outcrops (becomes exposed) at the earths surface.

    Members

    The main parts of a structure are the load-bearing structural members that support and transfer the loads on the structure while remaining in equilibrium with each other. The places where members are connected to other members are called joints. The total load supported by the structural members at a particular instant is equal to the total dead load plus the total live load.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Vertical Members

    Columns are high-strength vertical structural members; in buildings they may be called pillars. A pier in building construction may be called a short column. It could rest on a footing or it may be simply set or driven in the ground. In bridge construction a pier is a vertical member that provides intermediate support for the bridge superstructure.The vertical structural members in light-frame construction are called studs. They are supported on horizontal members called sills or sole plates, and are topped by horizontal members called top plates or stud caps. Corner posts are enlarged studs located at the building corners.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Horizontal Members

    A horizontal load-bearing structural member that spans a space and is supported at both ends is called a beam. A member that is fixed at one end is called a cantilever. One type of steel member is actually a light truss and is called an open-web steel joist or a bar-steel joist.

    Trusses

    A truss is a framework consisting of two horizontal (or nearly horizontal) members joined together by a number of vertical and/or inclined members to form a series of triangles.

    In learning to read machine drawings, we must first become familiar with the common terms, symbols, and conventions defined and discussed in the following slides.

    Basic Blueprint Reading

    Tolerances

    Obtaining Absolute accuracy is impossible and therefore variations must be allowed.This allowance is known as tolerance and represents the total amount the dimension may vary. It is stated on a drawing as (plus or minus) a certain amount, either by a fraction or decimal. Limits are the maximum and/or minimum values for a specific dimension.Tolerances may be shown on drawings by several different methods; the following slide shows three examples.

    The unilateral method is used when variation from the design size is permissible in one direction only.

    The bilateral method a dimension figure shows the plus or minus variation that is acceptable.

    In the limit dimensioning method the maximum and minimum measurements are both stated
