Sample Pancyprian TS Arch. Drawing Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the Pancyprian TS Arch. Drawing exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1On an architectural drawing, visible outlines of walls and other solid edges are drawn with which type of line?
A.Continuous thick line
B.Chain thin line
C.Short dashed line
D.Continuous thin freehand line
Explanation: Continuous thick (wide) lines are the standard convention for visible outlines and edges that carry the main visual weight of the drawing. Line hierarchy lets a reader immediately separate primary geometry from secondary information.
2Hidden edges, such as the far side of a foundation below ground in a section, are represented by:
A.Continuous thick lines
B.Dashed (broken) lines of medium width
C.Chain lines with two short dashes
D.Zigzag freehand lines
Explanation: Dashed lines are the universal convention for edges that exist in the object but are not visible from the chosen viewing direction. Using them avoids cluttering the drawing with construction geometry while still conveying full three-dimensional information.
3The dimensions of an A2 drawing sheet are:
A.297 × 420 mm
B.420 × 594 mm
C.594 × 841 mm
D.841 × 1189 mm
Explanation: The ISO A-series starts at A0 (841 × 1189 mm, area 1 m²), and each smaller size is obtained by halving the longer side. A2 therefore measures 420 × 594 mm, which is one quarter of an A0 sheet.
4Where is the title block conventionally placed on an architectural drawing sheet?
A.Top left corner
B.Centre of the top edge
C.Bottom right corner
D.Anywhere there is empty space
Explanation: The title block is placed at the bottom right corner so it remains visible when drawings are folded for filing and so it is found consistently by any reader. It carries the project name, drawing title, number, scale, date and author.
5On a section drawing, brickwork that has been cut by the cutting plane is conventionally hatched with:
A.A random stipple of dots
B.Diagonal parallel lines at approximately 45°
C.Alternating triangles and dots
D.Wavy lines imitating wood grain
Explanation: Brick and general masonry cut in section is shown with closely spaced diagonal parallel lines, traditionally at about 45 degrees. Each material has a recognisable conventional symbol so the reader can identify construction materials without a written note.
6Cut concrete in a sectional drawing is conventionally represented by:
A.45° diagonal hatching only
B.A combination of small triangles and dots
C.Crossed diagonal lines forming squares
D.Completely black filled areas
Explanation: Concrete is shown with a mixture of small triangular specks and dots, imitating the appearance of aggregate in a cement matrix. Reinforced concrete uses the same symbol, with reinforcement bars drawn as thick lines or black dots in section.
7In a floor plan, the opening swing of a door is shown by:
A.A thick black rectangle inside the wall opening
B.A quarter-circle arc showing the path of the door leaf
C.Two diagonal dashed lines across the opening
D.A cross inside a circle
Explanation: A door in plan is drawn with the leaf shown open (usually at 90° or 45°) plus a quarter-circle arc tracing the swing of its outer edge. This instantly tells the reader the hinge side and the direction of opening, which matters for circulation and furniture layout.
8In a floor plan, a window set in a wall is conventionally shown as:
A.A quarter-circle arc
B.Two or three thin parallel lines across the wall opening representing the frame and glass
C.A solid black bar filling the opening
D.A wavy freehand line
Explanation: A window in plan appears as thin parallel lines within the wall opening, representing the frame and the glass lines seen from above. The number of lines varies with the drawing scale and how detailed the frame representation is.
9A chain thin line (long dash followed by a short dash) on a building drawing normally indicates:
A.A hidden edge
B.A centre line or axis of symmetry
C.A cutting plane
D.A break in the object
Explanation: Chain thin lines mark centre lines, axes of symmetry and movement axes, for example the centre of a column, a symmetrical roof or a circular opening. They help the reader locate the geometric organising lines of the design.
10The cutting-plane line on a floor plan differs from an ordinary centre line because it:
A.Is drawn in red only
B.Is a chain line made thicker at its ends and changes of direction, with arrows showing the viewing direction
C.Consists entirely of dots
D.Is always drawn freehand
Explanation: A cutting plane uses a chain line thickened at the ends, at changes of direction and where it is labelled, with arrows that point in the direction of sight for the section. This distinguishes it from the lighter chain line used for centre lines.

Pancyprian TS Arch. Drawing: Suggested Study Strategy

1Read the official 2026 specification row for code 026 (ΑΡΧΙΤΕΚΤΟΝΙΚΟ ΣΧΕΔΙΟ Τ.Σ. (Θ.Κ.)) on the Examinations Service guide before drilling MCQs.
2After each wrong answer, rewrite the rule or concept in your own words with one new example.
3Schedule weekly timed practice with official past papers so you build the non-MCQ skills the real paper requires.
4Track weak categories from this bank and re-test them after 48 hours.
5Confirm logistics (centre, materials, language of response) from panexams.moec.gov.cy announcements, not from third-party summaries.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the official Pancyprian Technical School Architectural Drawing (Theoretical Direction) exam?

No. The official assessment is administered by the Cyprus Examinations Service as a constructed-response, drawing, performance or mixed paper under code 026. This bank is a free English-language MCQ study adaptation for revision; practise every required non-MCQ component with official past papers and the specification.

How is the subject marked?

Like all Pancyprian access subjects it is marked on a 0–20 scale. There is no pass mark; the grade contributes to the access/ranking grade used for admission to public universities in Cyprus and Greece.

What is the 2026 exam fee?

EUR 25.00 per access subject (EUR 50.00 only for Practical Physical Performance Test code 032), payable by card in the official 2–17 April 2026 window, with exemptions for specified groups.

Who can sit this examination?

Why is the practice bank in English?

OpenExamPrep publishes one English-language practice URL per exam. Where the tested skill is another language, stems/options may retain that language while explanations stay in English. The bank is not an official translation of the Greek (or other) exam environment.

How should I use this bank with official materials?

Use the bank to diagnose weak syllabus areas, then switch to Θέματα - Λύσεις and the official specification on panexams.moec.gov.cy for timed written, drawing or performance practice that this bank does not simulate.
