Learning Task 2:
INTRODUCTION TO THE ALPHABET OF LINES
1. Visible Lines-it is a heavy line used to outline the exterior contour of the object.
_______________________
2.Hidden Line- this is a medium weight line used to describe edges which are not visible to the
eye.it is also used to indicate the hidden intersection of planes and other hidden features of the
object.
__ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __
3. Center line- these are thin broken lines used to indicate the axes of all symmetrical objects or
features, both circles, and paths of motion. These are the lightest or finest lines in drawing. These
consists of one long and one short dash alternatively drawn
Page 1 of 6
4. Extension Line- This is a continuous line extending from a view to indicate the extent of
measurement given by a dimension line that is located outside the view. It is slightly heavier than a
center line and is composed of long equal dashes about 7mm to 4cm long and with gaps for about 1
to 2mm.
5. Dimension Line- this is used to indicate the measurements of an object. It is light in weight and
broken in the middle to provide space for dimensions. It consists of three parts; arrowheads, fine line,
and number of measurements.
Parts of Dimension Line
a) Fine line
b) Number of measurements
c) Arrow head
6. Reference Line- this is an irregular fine, curved line with an arrowhead at one end. It is used to
label the parts of an object.
7. Leader Line-this is a fine, broken line with an arrowhead at one end. The broken line usually
consists of a short horizontal line and an inclined line drawn at any convenient angle. This is also
used for indicating the measurement and name of a part of an object.
8. Limiting Line- this is used for limiting the length of an elongated object so that it can be shown
without changing the size of the view.
9. Break line- this is a medium line used to break an object when it is too large to get on the drawing
paper.

10. Cutting Plane Line - this is a heavy broken line drawn across an object to show a sectional view.
The arrowheads indicate the direction in which the section is to be seen. A sectional view is used to
describe the interior construction of the object.
11.Border Line - this is the heaviest or darkest line in a drawing. It surrounds a drawing and is
rectangular in shape.
12. Phantom Lines-Thin lines made up of long dashes alternating with pairs of short dashes.
Three purposes in drawings.
1. To show the alternate position of moving parts.
2. To show the relationship of parts that fit together.
3. To show repeated detail.
13. Section Line-Thin line is usually drawn at a 45-degree angle and indicates the material that has
been cut through in a sectional view.
