USES / APPLICATIONS OF ENGINEERING

GRAPHICS INSTRUMENTS

Introduction
Engineering Graphics instruments are important tools used for preparing technical drawings and
geometrical constructions. These instruments help students, engineers, architects, and
designers create neat and accurate drawings. They are widely used in mechanical, civil,
electrical, and architectural engineering.

Engineering Graphics improves visualization skills and helps in understanding different shapes,
dimensions, and projections. Proper use of instruments increases accuracy and saves time while
drawing.
Common Engineering Graphics Instruments
 Drawing Board: Provides a smooth and flat surface for drawing sheets.
 T-Square: Used for drawing horizontal and parallel lines.
 Set Squares: Used for drawing vertical lines and standard angles.
 Compass: Used to draw circles and arcs.
 Divider: Used for transferring measurements.
 Protractor: Used to measure and construct angles.
 Scale: Used for accurate measurement of dimensions.
 Mini Drafter: Used for fast and accurate drafting work.

Importance of EG Instruments
