(Optional) Interpret line weights.

Interpretation should include

  • light-weight lines (e.g., extension lines, dimension lines)
  • medium-weight lines (e.g., visible outline lines, hidden outline lines)
  • heavy-weight lines (e.g., outlines of cuts, outlines of sectioned objects).

Process/Skill Questions:

  • What information does each type of line weight convey?
  • Where should dimension lines be located on drawings? Why?
  • What line weight can be used to depict things that do not actually exist in physical form?
