This edition reflects the latest industry standards, including ASME Y14.5-2009 and CAN3-B78.1-M83.
PREFACE
Being able to read and correctly interpret a blueprint is a necessary skill in the industrial world today. Blueprint Reading for the Machine Trades is a workbook that requires your responses. By solving the
problems and writing your answers in the book, you can more easily retain important information.
No prior knowledge of blueprint reading is required, and the only materials needed are a pencil and an eraser. The first of sixteen units begins with the very basics of print reading, progressing to
visualization, and then to multiview drawings. Upon completion of this book, you should be well prepared to enter the industrial field of work.
The authors use the proven teaching technique of introducing new material, followed by an immediate application of the new knowledge through assignments. As new material continues to be introduced, earlier information must also be retained. Therefore, questions pertaining to previously introduced material will continue to appear throughout the book.
A variety of questions have been used to stimulate your interest. These include short answer, multiple choice, true/false, and sketching. The book is written in a style that lends itself to classroom or industrial settings, and it also has been successfully used for self-teaching.
Because of the rapidly changing technology of the times, this seventh edition has been revised to omit outdated information and data. The section on profile tolerances has been moved and expanded to include coplanar surfaces. A drawing with GDT applications of profile of a surface has been included. Also, more exercises dealing with GDT applications have been added.
All drawings in this edition include the latest standards established by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). Both U.S. Customary
Units (inches) and the International System of Units (metric) are used throughout the book. The ASME Y14.5-2009 Dimensioning and Tolerancing standard and the CAN3-B78.1-M83 (reaffirmed
1990) Technical Drawings—General Principles standard have been followed. These are both current standards as of this writing.
