    ELEMENT 1: PREPARE FREEHAND SKETCH

    LEARNING OUTCOME

    As you go through this element you need to ensure that you acquire the required knowledge,skills and attitude to prepare freehand sketch. Your learning facilitator is there to assist you

    through the various activities. Upon completion of the element you should be able to:

    1. Draw sketch correctly and appropriately2. Show that sketch depicts object or part3. Obtain dimensions correctly

    4. Show dimensions correctly5. Show instructions clearly

    6. Indicate baseline or datum point

    DRAWING SKETCHES CORRECTLY

    When drawing sketches correctly it is important that the appropriate views are shown. Thenumber of views necessary to convey all relevant information about the objects to be sketched

    should be identified. It is therefore necessary that engineers be capable of executing well-proportioned and understandable freehand pictorial sketches, for sketching is one of the most

    important modes of expression that they have available for use. Like other means for conveyingideas, when depended on alone, sketches will usually prove to be inadequate. However, whenused in combination with the written or spoken language and related graphical representations,

    they make full understanding by others.

    techniques/instruments. Some of the instruments that can be used are:

    Architects scale Pencils

    Pare Drawing board

    T square

    45 degree set square

    30 degree X 60 degree set square

    Tracing vellum

    The units used in preparing the sketch should be clearly identified.

    SHOWING DIMENSIONS CLEARLY

    All the necessary dimensions are to be shown clearly on the sketch. It is also very important thatall key dimensions to be conveyed by the sketch can be identified.When sketches are dimensioned, the overall width, depth, and height dimensions are placedoutside of the location dimensions. These are known as overall dimensions.
