Question

The untrimmed size for _______ sheet is 240 mm x 330 mm.

(a) A1

(b) A3

(c) A4

(d) A5

I got this question in a national level competition.

My question is based upon Sheet layout, Types of Machine Drawing and Free-Hand Sketching topic in division Drawing Instruments, Sheet Layout & Free-Hand Sketching of Engineering Drawing

Answer 1

Right choice is (c) A4

The best explanation: The untrimmed size of any sheet will be slightly larger than trimmed size. The untrimmed size for an A4 sheet is 240 mm x 330 mm where trimmed size is 210 mm x 297mm. The space between the trimmed sheet and the frame is called a border.
