ROJAS-SOLA, JOSÉ IGNACIO; FERNANDEZ-SORA, ALBERTO; SERRANO-TIERZ, ANA  and  HERNANDEZ-DIAZ, DAVID. A HISTORICAL REVIEW: FROM ENGINEERING GRAPHICS TO ENGINEERING DESIGN. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2011, vol.78, n.167, pp.17-26. ISSN 0012-7353.

This article presents a historical research on the evolution over time of progress experienced by the geometry, and particularly the technical drawing as engineering drawing, making the review by steps including the ancient world, the Middle age, the Renaissance, the modern age, the twentieth century and the current drawing in engineering, to finish exposing some future trends. Also, it is presented the most important historical landmarks such as the emergence of the first examples of standard views and perspective, and the apparition of systems of representation of the descriptive geometry, particularly the dihedral system, which were the development of Engineering Graphics until now to be pillars in Engineering Design.

Keywords : Technical Drawing; Descriptive Geometry; Engineering Graphics; Engineering Design.
