Dimensioning Introduction
An engineering drawing must include all information needed
to build a part, assembly or system
Technical drawings should include:
Dimensions and general notes describing the size and location of part
features
Details related to the construction or manufacture of the part
Size
Location
Geometric characteristic
Surface texture
Unit of Measurement
Drawings are dimensioned using Metric or English units
Metric system: Millimetres in whole numbers
English/Imperial system: Inches in decimals (typical: 2 dec places)
Add general note: Unless otherwise stated, all dimensions are in
millimetres (or inches)
Terminology
Surface Finishing
Parts produced by casting have rough external surfaces
When cast parts are used in an assembly
Surfaces in contact with other parts are machined or finished to
provide smooth mating surfaces, reduce friction, etc
Casting Process
Casting is a manufacturing process by which a liquid material
is usually poured into a mold, which contains a hollow cavity
of the desired shape, and then allowed to solidify. The
solidified part is also known as a casting, which is ejected or
broken out of the mold to complete the process.

Finish Marks
A finish mark symbol () is used to indicate that a surface is to be
machined
Finish marks are applied to all edge views (visible or hidden) of finished
part surfaces
