Engineering Drawing Requirements Workshop -  (Concept driven)
For design, layout, assembly, checking and inspection teams.

The interpretation of an engineering drawing has a direct impact on the final product. ETI's one-day course explains how to correctly interpret engineering drawings. It will improve a student's understanding of print reading and result in more effective communication on the job.

Who Should Attend
This workshop is designed for anyone who interprets engineering drawings: product, manufacturing, and quality engineers; inspectors; machinists; production personnel; purchasing agents; etc.

Workshop Highlights
Working with engineering drawings involves analyzing, making decisions, and processing data. The Engineering Drawing Requirements workshop is based on practical application of print interpretation. It will give you a better understanding of the view representation, dimensions, tolerances, and symbols used on prints. You'll learn:
  • The definition and uses of engineering drawings
  • Types of engineering drawings
  • Appropriate standards and documents specified on engineering drawings
  • Standard engineering drawing formats
  • Interpreting general notes, flag notes and general tolerances on engineering drawings
  • How revisions are specified on engineering drawings
  • Identifying and interpreting line conventions used on engineering drawings
  • Interpreting the various views shown on engineering drawings
  • Basic part definition required on engineering drawings
  • Common terms, symbols and abbreviations used on engineering drawings

This hands-on workshop is based on ASME standards and common industry practices. It contains a series of goals and objectives and includes numerous practice problems. If pre-arranged, your company drawings can be used in the workshop exercises.

Each workshop participant receives:

A copy of Engineering Drawing Requirements: How to Interpret Engineering Drawings, by Alex Krulikowski
