Technical and mechanical drafting are closely related but not identical. Technical drafting encompasses a broader range of drawing techniques used in various fields, including architecture, engineering, and manufacturing, while mechanical drafting specifically focuses on creating detailed drawings and plans for mechanical components and systems. Both require precision and adherence to standards, but mechanical drafting is more specialized in its application to mechanical engineering.

The seven areas of drafting are: architectural drafting, civil drafting, mechanical drafting, electrical drafting, electronics drafting, aeronautical drafting, and marine drafting.

Allied drafting trades encompass various specialized fields that support the drafting and design process in construction and manufacturing. Key trades include architectural drafting, which focuses on building designs; structural drafting, which details the framework of structures; mechanical drafting, which involves the creation of mechanical components; and electrical drafting, which outlines electrical systems. Other trades may involve civil drafting for infrastructure projects and landscape drafting for outdoor spaces. Each trade requires specific skills and knowledge to accurately represent technical information and facilitate project execution.
Drafting tables can be used by people who are not mechanical engineers. You can adjust the height on drafting tables, so once set up, they can be used by anyone.
