First Angle Projection

The document describes a block that is cut into different shapes and selecting views of it for a technical drawing. It discusses selecting the front view as the principal view and labeling secondary views from the left, right, above, below, and behind in relation to the front view. Under first angle projection, the left, right, above and below views are arranged relative to the front view with the left view on the right side, right view on the left side, below view underneath, and above view above.

First angle projection

Assume that a small block is made 35 mm 30 mm 20 mm and that two of the corners are cut away as shown below in three stages. Figure 4.2 illustrates a pictorial view of the block and this has been arranged in an arbitrary way because none of the faces are more important than the others. In order to describe the orthographic views we need to select a principal view and in this case we have chosen the view in direction of arrow A to be the view from the front. The five arrows point to different surfaces of the block and five views will result. The arrows themselves are positioned square to the surfaces, that is at 90to the surfaces and they are also at 90, or multiples of 90to each other. The views are designated as follows: View in direction A is the view from the front, View in direction B is the view from the left, View in direction C is the view from the right, View in direction D is the view from above, View in direction E is the view from below. In first angle projection the views in the directions of arrows B, C, D and E are arranged with reference to the front view as follows: The view from B is placed on the right, The view from C is placed on the left, The view from D is placed underneath, The view from E is placed above. The experienced draughtsman will commit the above rules to memory. It is customary to state the projection used on orthographic drawings to remove all doubt, or use the distinguishing symbol which is shown on the arrangement in Fig. 4.3.
