What does BS 8888 apply to?
BS 8888 brings together all international standards needed to prepare technical product specifications. The standard aims to assist UK industry to use the 200 or more international standards on documentation, specification, and verification.
What is the BS 8888 standard?
BS 8888 is the British standard developed by the BSI Group for technical product documentation, geometric product specification, geometric tolerance specification and engineering drawings.
How far should the border be from the edge of the paper?
10mmm
A border is a line drawn around the inside edge of the paper. Usually this is 10mmm from the edge of the paper.
What is the standard border size?
The size of the drawing border (or Engineering Drawing Frame) on your technical drawings is covered in BS EN ISO 5457. The BS ISO standards require a 20mm border to the left hand edge (for filing) and a 10mm border round the other three sides of the drawing sheet.
What does bs888 mean?
BS 8888 is the UK’s national framework standard for engineering drawings and geometrical tolerancing. It covers all of the requirements for the technical specification of products and their component parts. Among other things, it explains the way in which engineering drawings outline and present these specifications.
Why drawing is universal language?
It enables us to think, visualize, and understand what we see through a series of lines, shades, shapes, and colors that are all integrated in one medium that brings out a complete picture.
How do you calculate border size?
To figure out what the border sizes for this mat would be simply subtract each dimension of the photo size from the frame size and divide by two. Example: 11″ – 8″ = 3″ (28cm – 20.3cm = 7.7cm). Divide 3″ (7.7cm) by two which leaves 1-1/2″ (3.8cm) to be used as the left and right mat border.
How do you measure a frame for a border?
1) Take the width of the artwork from the width of the frame and divide by 2. This will give you your left and right border sizes. 2) Do the same for the height to give the top and bottom border sizes.
What is bs4500?
BS 4500 gives guidance on a system of cone fits and tolerances for cones from C = 1:3 to 1:500 and lengths from 6 mm to 630 mm. BS 4500 applies to cones which are dimensioned and toleranced according to BS ISO 3040, Method 1, Basic Taper method.
Why drawing is called engineering?
Why drawing is called universal language of engineers? Ans1:-A drawing drawn by an engineer having engineering knowledge for the drawing purposes is an engineering drawing. It is meant for communicating his ideas, thoughts and designs to others.
