Dimensioning Radii


















All radial dimensions are proceeded by the capital R. All dimension arrows and lines should be drawn perpendicular to the radius so that the line passes through the centre of the arc. All dimensions should only have one arrowhead which should point to the line being dimensioned. There are two methods for dimensioning radii.

(a) shows a radius dimensioned with the centre of the radius located on the drawing.

(b) shows how to dimension radii which do not need their centres locating.
