Note : Max. marks : 60 (i) Attempt any five questions. (ii) All questions carry equal marks. (iii) Assume suitable data or dimensions, if necessary, clearly mentioned it.
Q.1 (a) What is dimensioning? List the various dimensioning systems.
Ans. For a drawing component in addition to providing complete shape description, it must also furnishes information regarding the size description.
It may provide through the distance between the, (i) Surface (ii) Location of holes. (iii) Nature of surface finish. (iv) Type of material etc. 1. General principle of dimensioning : (i) As for as possible, it should be placed outside the view. (ii) It should be taken from visible line rather than hidden lines. (iii) Dimensioning of a centre line should be avoided except when the centre line passes through
the centre of a holes. (iv) Dimension should be placed on the view or section which is most clear to the corresponding
features. (v) Each dimension should be dimensioned once on a drawing. (vi) Each drawing should have the same dimensional unit. (vii)More than one dimension should not be used for features of same parts. 2. Method of execution : Element of dimensioning includes : (i) Projection line (ii) Leader line (iii) Dimension line termination (iv) Dimension line (v) Origin indication (vi) Dimension itself.
Fig. Elements of dimensioning.
Important instructions : (a) Projection and dimension lines should be drawn as thin continuous line. (b) Projection line should be extended slightly beyond the respective dimension lines.

(c) Projection line should be drawn perpendicular to the part being dimensioned. (May be drawn obliquely, but parallel to each other and must be in contact with that part).
(d) Dimension line and projection line should not cross each other (unless it is unavoidable) (e) Dimension line should not be shown broken, even if the part to which it refers is shown
broken (shown in diagram). (f) A centre line or a outline of the part should not be used as a dimension line, but may be used
in place of projection line.
Fig. Method of dimensioning
3. Method of indication of dimensions : Dimension should be placed in such a way that they are not crossed or separated by any other line and should be shown on drawing in character of sufficient size, to ensure complete legibility.
Dimension should be indicated on drawing according to one of the following method (but only one method should be used on any drawing)
Method I : Aligned system, Dimension should be placed parallel to their dimension lines and preferably near the middle
above and clear of the dimension lines (fig (a)). It may be written so that they can be read from the bottom or from the right side of the drawing. Dimension on oblique dimension lines should be oriented as shown fig.(b). Angular dimension may be oriented as shown in fig.(c).
Method II : Uni‐directional system, Dimension should be indicated so that they can be read from the bottom of drawing only.
Non‐horizontal dimensions lines are interrupted, preferably near the middle, for insertion of dimension (fig. (a))
Angular dimension may be oriented as shown in fig.(b)

Following indications (symbols) are used with dimension to reveal the shape indication and to improve drawing interpretation.
(i) : Diameter
(ii) S : Spherical diameter
(iii) R : Radius (iv) SR : Spherical Radius
(v) : Square
Fig. Shape identification symbols
4. Arrangement of dimensions : On a drawing arrangement of dimensions must indicate clearly the design purpose.
Way of arranging the dimensions : (i) Chain dimension : Chains of single dimensions should be used only where the possible
accumulation of tolerance does not endanger the functional requirement of the part.
Fig. Chain dimensioning
(ii) Parallel dimensioning : Number of dimensions lines parallel to one another and spaced out are used where a number of dimensions have a common datum features. [fig.(a)]
(iii) Super imposed running dimensions : This types of simplified parallel dimensions may be used where there are space limitation [fig.(b)].

Q.6 (a) Give the list of softwares, currently available for 2D solid modeling.
Ans. The various types of CAD softwares available in the market are : AutoCAD Pro‐E Catia Unigraphics ANSYS, etc.
Q.6 (b) Explain the use of fillet and chamfer tools in AutoCAD.
Ans. The Chamfer Command : The Chamfer command enables you to create a chamfer between any two non‐parallel lines as in the illustration below or any two adjacent polyline segments. Usually, the Chamfer command is used to set the chamfer distances before drawing the chamfer. Follow the command sequence below where the chamfer distances are changed to 20 before the chamfer is made. Command : CHAMFER (TRIM mode) Current chamfer Dist1 = 10.0000, Dist2 = 10.0000 Select first line or [Polyline/Distance/Angle/Trim/Method] : D (to set distances) Specify first chamfer distance <10.0000> : 20 (enter required distance) Specify second chamfer distance <20.0000> : (first distance value or enter a different value) Select first line or [Polyline/Distance/Angle/Trim/Method] : (pick P1) Select second line : (pick P2) The chamfer is made and the command ends. Notice from the command sequence that there are a number of options which can be used to control the way the Chamfer command behaves. The Polyline option can be used to chamfer all vertexes of a polyline simultaneously. The Distance option allows you to specify the two chamfer distances. Angle allows the angle between the first line and the chamfer to be specified. Trim is used to control whether the original lines are trimmed to the chamfer or remain as they are. Finally, Method is used to toggle the command between Distance and Angle mode. When Angle mode is used, the chamfer is defined using one distance and an angle rather than two distances.

Fillet Command : The Fillet command is a very useful tool which allows you to draw an arc between two intersecting lines or adjacent polyline segments. You first need to use the command to set the required radius and then a second time to select the two lines.
Command Sequence Command : FILLET Current settings : Mode = TRIM, Radius = 10.0000 Select first object or [Polyline/Radius/Trim] : R Specify fillet radius <10.000> : 25 Select first object or [Polyline/Radius/Trim] : (pick P1) Select second object : (pick P2) The Fillet command can also be used to fillet arcs and circles. The Polyline option also allows you to fillet all vertices of a polyline with a single command. It s worth experimenting with this command, it can save you lots of time and enables you to construct shapes which otherwise would be quite difficult.
For example, you can easily create the lozenge shape shown on the right from a simple rectangle. Since AutoCAD rectangles are just closed polylines, you can use the Polyline option of the Fillet command to fillet all polyline vertexes simultaneously. Try this for yourself; draw a rectangle and then follow the command sequence below.
Command : FILLET Current settings: Mode = TRIM, Radius = 10.0000 Select first object or [Polyline/Radius/Trim]: P Select 2D polyline: (pick P1) 4 lines were filleted
Q.6 (c) Draw the projection of a cube of 30 mm edge resting on H.P. on one of its corner with solid diagonal vertical.
Ans. Steps : (i) Initially assume that cube is resting on one of its face in H.P. such that its solid diagonal (a g or
)e c is parallel to V.P.
Draw its top view (top view of a cube will be a square with all sides inclined 045 with )xy . Project
its front view. (ii) Position the front view (inclined front view) such that its diagonal a g becomes parallel to H.P.
(or xy line).

(iii) Project its top view with the help of previous F.V.(3) and T.V.(1), as a initial top view(4).
(iv) Position the initial top view(4) such that its solid diagonal 2 2a g perpendicular to V.P. This is
final top view(5).
(v) With the help of final top view(5) and initial front view(3), draw the final F.V.(6).
Q.7 (a) Differentiate between frustum of pyramid and truncated pyramid.
Ans. Frustum of a pyramid : When a horizontal section plane (plane perpendicular to V.P. and parallel to H.P.) cut the pyramid, which is resting on H.P. with its base, then frustum is obtained. Here all the slant sides are of equal length.
Truncated pyramid : When a section plane inclined to H.P. and perpendicular to V.P. cut the pyramid, which is resting on H.P. with its base, the truncated pyramid is obtained. Here all the slant sides are not of equal length.
Q.7 (b) Draw the front view, top view and right side view of the object shown in figure.
