    This document provides information about engineering drawings, including common scales used, types of views, and abbreviations. It discusses enlarged drawings showing components larger than actual size, with 1:5 being a common engineering scale. Whole structures are typically shown on general arrangement drawings consisting of hundreds of pages for large projects. Most drawings are now produced using CAD software. Views include plans from above, elevations from the front/side, sections through cuts, and isometric/oblique 3D projections. Common abbreviations include GA for general arrangement, CAD for computer-aided design, dwg for drawing, 3D for three-dimensional, and scales such as 1:50. Engineering drawings show details, elevations, plans, sections,

    3D detail elevation GA plan scale schematic section

    We need a section through the bridge, showing the profile of the deck.
    2 The only drawing we have is the GA which is 1:100, so it obviously doesn’t show
    things in detail.
    3 On drawing 12, there’s a large PLAN of the entire Top deck of the ship.
    4 This is the ELEVATION showing the front face of the tower.
    5 Modern CAD systems can produce 3D drawings that look almost as realistic as
    photographs.
    6 we don’t need dimensions and positions at this stage. We just need a SCHEMATIC
    showing how many branches come off the main supply pipe.
    we don’t have a proper drawing. We’ve just got a rough sketch, which is not to SCALE

    The fixings aren ’t shown on the 1:50 general arrangement. But there’s a DETAIL, at
    1:5, on drawing 42.
