Drafting is a form of communication that is technical and requires accuracy and consistency.
Technical drafting keep lines, symbols, and details as drawings are presented with exact proportions. It
allows you to see how the object will look once it has been assembled. This is why drafting is the
universal language of industry. Drafting is said to be the universal language of engineers because they
can read and understand it.

Technical drawing, also known as drafting, communicates visually how the plan works and
what the final output should be. Drafting is important for communicating ideas between engineers,
