Engineering Drawing reading exercises

Abstract

Engineering Drawing is a technical subject, which suggests that it is one of mechanical skill in making a working drawing with the aid of instruments, i.e. draughting. When one reflects, however, that few students who complete some Engineering Drawing courses will ever again make another drawing, one wonders whether it would not be better to put the main emphasis on reading drawings, rather than on making them.
