WELD 101 C Practice Test

CAD is commonly understood as Computer Aided Drafting in this context. The idea is that computer software helps drafters create precise technical drawings—things like dimensions, tolerances, and multiple views—more quickly and accurately than hand drawing. This reflects the roots of CAD in the drafting process, where the focus is on producing exact drawings and plans. While many modern references use Computer-Aided Design to emphasize the broader design workflow, this question uses the traditional wording that centers on creating drawings. The other options shift the meaning: Design points to the wider creative and engineering process rather than the drawing task, Assisted is not the standard terminology, and Engineering refers to the broader engineering field rather than the drafting toolset.
