This guide was elaborated motivated by the need to have a material that helps the development of the contents of technical measurements, due to the reduction of the time fund for the subject technical measurements in the study plan E of mechanical engineering. It is a document with a focus on the development of skills in data selection and calculation. In the treatment of each section the objective is stated, the orientations for the study based on a reminder of the essential theoretical aspects and solved example; the system of proposed exercises, and the set of tables and required data. When dealing with the contents of the topics covered, emphasis is placed on the most general elements, considering the large volume of information available on these topics, the time limitation, and the possibility of articulating the theoretical-practical component with other undergraduate and graduate activities of the subject technical measurements and other related subjects. General orientation for the development of the classes is formulated on the basis of the proposed exercises.
