- 4. Gradual diminution of width or thickness in an elongated object.
- 5. Connected to specific features on the views of the drawing. Also known as annotations.
- 9. A dimensioning system which requires all numerals, figures, and notes to be lettered horizontally and to be read from the bottom of the drawing sheet.
- 10. An outside radius applied to corners.
- 11. The designation of the size established for a commercial product.
- 13. A drawing that contains all the information for making one part of the design.
- 15. The activity of gathering information about consumers’ needs and preferences.
- 19. An investigation of the opinions or experience of a group of people, based on a series of questions.
- 20. The largest and smallest possible boundaries to which a feature may be made as related to the tolerance of the dimension.
- 22. A location dimension that defines the relationship of features of an object.
- 23. The acceptable amount of dimensional variation that will still allow an object to function correctly..
- 25. The amount of overlap that one part has with another when assembled.
- 26. A type of expository writing that is used to convey information for technical or business purposes.

Down
- 1. Occurs when two mating parts can sometimes have a clearance fit and sometimes have an interference fit.
- 2. A dimension, usually without a tolerance, used for information purposes only. A reference is a repeat of a given dimension or established from other values shown on a drawing. Reference dimensions are enclosed in ( ) on the drawing.
- 3. The smallest size limit of an external feature and the largest size limit of an internal feature.
- 6. The dimension noted or, in the case of a tolerance, the part of the dimension from which the limits are calculated.
- 7. This is a worldwide organization that creates engineering standards.
- 8. A tolerance in which variation is permitted in only one direction from the specified dimension.
- 12. A shallow recess like a counterbore, used to provide a good bearing surface for a fastener.
- 14. A view that is used to show details not apparent on the exterior of the part.
- 16. Thin lines used in a section view to indicate where the cutting plane line has cut through material.
- 17. Limits the size of mating parts so that an interference always results when mating parts are assembled.
- 18. A list of materials or parts specified for a project. Also referred to as a bill of materials or BOM.
- 21. Drawings that convey all of the information needed to manufacture and assemble a design.
- 24. A distance of uniform measure determined at a point on one unit to the same corresponding point on the next unit; used in threads, springs, and other machine parts.
