  1. 3. A CAD feature that rounds off the edges or corners of a part.
  2. 4. A view looking directly down on an object, usually used to represent the layout of a building or mechanical part. It shows the horizontal plane of the object.
  3. 7. The basic drawing created in CAD software, consisting of lines, shapes, and curves that define the geometry of a part.
  4. 10. A method of drawing a 3D object where the three axes (height, width, and depth) are equally foreshortened, typically drawn at 30° angles from the horizontal. It provides a clear view of the object’s structure without distortion.
  5. 11. A CAD operation that extends a 2D sketch into a 3D object by adding depth.
  6. 12. The process of adding measurements to a drawing to specify the size, location, and geometry of a part.
  7. 13. A CAD feature that cuts away the edge or corner of a part at an angle, typically to remove sharp edges.
  8. 15. A type of drawing where the front face of the object is shown in true size and shape, and the other faces are drawn at an angle (usually 45°) to give a sense of depth. It is simpler to draw than isometric but can appear less realistic.

  1. 1. Rules applied to a sketch in CAD to control the size, shape, and position of geometry, ensuring it behaves predictably.
  2. 2. A CAD operation that creates a 3D object by rotating a 2D sketch around an axis.
  3. 5. A flat, rigid surface used as a base for drawing, usually equipped with clips or a parallel motion ruler to help keep the paper steady and ensure straight lines.
  4. 6. A triangular tool used in technical drawing to draw precise angles, commonly 90°, 45°, 30°, and 60°. It’s essential for ensuring accuracy in orthographic projections and other geometric constructions.
  5. 8. A drawing method that represents objects as they appear to the eye, with parallel lines converging towards a vanishing point, making distant parts of the object look smaller. This technique creates a realistic 3D effect on a 2D surface.
  6. 9. A view that represents one side of an object or building, typically used in architectural drawings to show the exterior or interior façade.
  7. 14. A CAD file where multiple parts are brought together to form a complete product, allowing for the simulation of movement and interaction between parts.
