Activity 3.4 Linear Dimensions
Procedure
Identify dimensioning errors based on the Dimensioning Guidelines. Circle each error and place a letter, A through P, next to each error on the drawing. In the space provided below each drawing, next to the appropriate letter, give the reason for each correction and cite the dimensioning guideline that is misapplied. In this activity, you will apply your knowledge of dimensioning to identify dimensioning errors and provide missing dimensions on multi-view drawings. You will also fully dimension multi-view sketches according to dimensioning guidelines
Conclusions
1. Why is placement of your dimensions so important?
So that you won't make the project the wrong dimensions.
2. Why do designers need to fully dimension a part?
So that the project is perfect when you are finished.
3. What does it mean when a sketch is over dimensioned?
It means that it has unnecessary dimensions.
