• Dimension lines

• Construction lines

• Visible lines

• Hidden lines

The heaviest of lines used in drafting, serving as a "frame" for a drawing and establishing a space between the drawing and the edge of the paper.

• Dimension lines

• Construction lines

• Border lines

• Hidden lines

Very light lines used as guides for positioning objects on drawings.

• Dimension lines

• Construction lines

• Border lines

• Hidden lines

Thin lines used when drawing inside features of an object exposed by a cutting plane. Lines are drawn using patterns corresponding to different materials.

• Dimension lines

• Border lines

• Section Lines

A three -sided geometric figure. Also, a drafting instrument used to draw vertical and inclined lines.

• Triangle

• Circle

• Square

• Cubid

Lines that are drawn the same weight as the visible lines (approximately .024" thick). They are used to indicate where the theoretical cut is taken for a sectional view.
