tiltegninger

Tiltegninger are supplementary drawings used in Danish and Norwegian technical documentation to accompany the primary set of drawings. They are designed to convey information that is not fully shown or clarified in the main drawings, and they are commonly used in engineering, architecture, and manufacturing.

The primary purpose of tiltegninger is to provide additional detail that supports interpretation, fabrication, assembly, installation, or maintenance. Typical contents include exploded views of assemblies, installation or mounting details, tolerances and fit information, component lists, wiring or piping diagrams, and interface notes with other systems. By presenting these details separately, tiltegninger help ensure accurate construction and easier servicing without cluttering the main drawings.

Format and labeling conventions can vary by country and project, but tiltegninger are usually created as separate sheets or CAD layers and referenced from the main drawings. They are titled and numbered (for example, Tiltegning 1, Tiltegning 2) and include standard title blocks with project data, scale, author, and revision status. They follow the same drawing conventions as the primary documents, including projection method, line types, and dimensioning rules.

Tiltegninger are not replacements for the main drawings but complements. Any change in the main drawings should be reflected in the tiltegninger, and cross-references should be maintained to preserve consistency and traceability. They are valuable for manufacturers, installers, and maintenance personnel by clarifying complex interfaces and ensuring correct implementation.
