Jis B 1007 Pdf -

| Item | Description | |------|--------------| | Full title | JIS B 1007: “Graphical symbols – General purpose symbols for engineering drawing” | | Publication body | Japanese Industrial Standards Committee (JISC) – Standards Section B (Drafting & Drawing) | | Year of latest edition | 2020 (the most recent revision as of 2024) | | Purpose | To provide a unified set of line‑type, hatching, and pictorial symbols that can be used on technical drawings, schematics, and related documentation across all engineering disciplines. | | Audience | Mechanical, civil, electrical, and architectural engineers; drafting professionals; CAD/CAM programmers; quality‑control inspectors; and anyone who creates or reads engineering drawings in Japan (or for Japanese‑origin products). | | Relationship to other standards | – Complements JIS B 0015 (dimensioning) and JIS B 0046 (geometric tolerancing). – Aligns closely with ISO 128 (technical drawings – general principles) and ISO 14617 (graphical symbols for diagrams). | 2. Structure of the Standard | Section | Typical Content | Key Take‑aways | |---------|----------------|----------------| | 0 – Introduction | Scope, purpose, normative references, and definitions of terms such as “line type”, “hatching”, “symbol”. | Sets the context and tells you which other JIS/ISO documents you must consult for a complete drawing system. | | 1 – General Rules | Rules for line thickness, line spacing, symbol placement, and scaling. | Provides the “rules of the road” that keep symbols legible when drawings are reduced or enlarged. | | 2 – Line Types | Solid, hidden, centre, phantom, break, and special purpose lines (e.g., welding, surface finish). | Gives a complete catalog of line styles, each with a recommended line‑weight (e.g., 0.25 mm for hidden lines on A0 sheet). | | 3 – Hatching & Sectioning | Cross‑hatching patterns for materials (steel, aluminium, cast iron, wood, concrete, etc.) and for indicating cut‑away sections. | Enables quick visual identification of material or process without a legend. | | 4 – Pictorial Symbols | 3‑D symbols for common components: fasteners (bolts, screws, nuts), bearings, gears, springs, weld symbols, etc. | These are the “icon library” that most engineers rely on daily. | | 5 – Diagrammatic Symbols | Symbols for fluid flow, electricity, pneumatics, hydraulics, and process plants (valves, pumps, motors, sensors). | Extends the standard beyond pure mechanical drawing into multidisciplinary schematics. | | 6 – Dimensional & Tolerance Symbols | Notation for geometric tolerances, surface roughness, datum references. | Overlaps with JIS B 0046 but provides the graphic representation. | | 7 – Annexes | – Annex A : Conversion tables to ISO 128 symbols. – Annex B : Recommended CAD layer naming conventions. – Annex C : Example drawing sheets illustrating correct symbol usage. | Helpful for companies migrating from legacy drawing sets to a JIS‑compliant environment. | | Bibliography | List of referenced standards (ISO, IEC, JIS). | Shows the normative backbone of the document. | Tip: Most CAD packages (e.g., SolidWorks, AutoCAD, CATIA) already ship a “JIS B 1007” symbol library. If you enable it, the symbols will automatically obey the line‑type and scaling rules defined in Sections 1‑3. 3. Key Content Highlights | Symbol Category | Representative Symbols (illustrative) | Typical Use Cases | |-----------------|----------------------------------------|-------------------| | Fasteners | • Hex bolt (head‑view) • Countersunk screw • Lock washer | Mechanical assembly drawings, BOM lists | | Welding | • Fillet weld (symbol) • Groove weld (different preparations) | Structural steel fabrication, shipbuilding | | Surface finish | • Roughness symbol (Ra, Rz) • Machining allowance | Manufacturing process specifications | | Material hatching | • Stacked 45° lines (steel) • Diagonal 30° lines (aluminium) | Section views showing material composition | | Fluid‑flow | • Arrowed pipe line (direction) • Valve symbols (gate, globe) | Piping & instrumentation diagrams (P&ID) | | Electrical | • Ground symbol • Motor, transformer icons | Wiring diagrams, control panel schematics | | Safety/Warning | • Exclamation mark within triangle • Fire‑hazard symbol | Safety signage on engineering documentation |
