One of the principal functions of drawing is to convey ideas from the design engineer to the fabricator. Hence, the skill to interpret and construct engineering sketches and drawings is of paramount importance. Engineering Graphics explains the principles and construction of engineering drawing in an elementary manner so that readers from different areas of engineering can understand it with minimum effort. New conventions of designating the planes, ground lines and projections on the planes have been introduced to avoid confusion when a number of planes are involved. Follows the syllabi used by most engineering institutes.
