ObjectivesObjectivesIdentify and describe geometric shapesand constructions used by drafters.
Construct various geometric shapesusing
Points.Lines.Planes.

GeometryGeometryGeometry is the study of the size and shape of things.
6
GeometryGeometryGeometry has always been important.
It was used in ancient times formeasuring land and making right-angle corners for buildings and other kinds of construction.
Egyptian “rope stretchers” used rope with marks or knots at 12 equal spaces.
7
GeometryGeometryThe rope was divided into 3, 4, and 5 space sections.
A right angle was constructed by stretching the rope and driving pegs into the ground at the 3, 4, 5 space marks.
Refer to figure in text.

The Use of the 3The Use of the 3--44--5 Triangle5 TriangleThe use of the 3-4-5 triangle for making right angles was proved by Pythagorasin the sixth century B.C.
The proof is the Pythagorean Theorem.A2 + B2 = C2
9
The Use of the 3The Use of the 3--44--5 Triangle5 TriangleThe Pythagorean Theorem works for triangles that have the same proportions as 3-4-5.

Geometric Construction Geometric Construction Geometric Constructions are:
Drawings made of individual lines and points drawing in proper relationship to one another.
11
Geometric Construction Geometric Construction Geometric constructions are used by
Drafters.Surveyors.Engineers.Architects.Scientists.Mathematicians.Designers.

Geometric ConstructionsGeometric ConstructionsEveryone, in all technical fields, needs to know the geometric constructionsexplained in this chapter.
13
Solving Problems Using GeometrySolving Problems Using Geometry
Geometric constructions are often usedby drafters to help solve design problems.
14
Solving Problems Using GeometrySolving Problems Using GeometryA designer may be designing a complicated mechanical assembly that has moving parts.
The designer must determine whether the design allows enough clearance for the parts to move freely.
The drafter may need to construct accurate circles and various tangents, parallel and perpendicular lines to measure clearances.
15
Designing Within ParametersDesigning Within ParametersA designer may be given very specific design parameters (guidelines).
Example:A part or assembly may have to fit within a specific area.The principles of geometric construction are used to meet the specification.
16
Accuracy Is FundamentalAccuracy Is FundamentalRemember, accuracy is a fundamental of drafting.
Sloppy drafting may give the designer the wrong answer, which may lead to a part being manufactured incorrectly.
17
Accuracy Is FundamentalAccuracy Is FundamentalSloppy drafting may result in:
Lack of clarity and people may misread the information.Change orders.Parts not ordered correctly.
