Mechanical Engineering Drawing

This document provides an introduction to mechanical engineering drawing and views. It discusses the basic types of views, including orthographic and isometric views. It explains how to create orthographic views by projecting the edges of an object onto planes. The key types of projection are first angle and third angle projection. Examples are given of how to observe a solid block and develop its orthographic views, including top, front, and right-hand side views. Different types of lines are shown for hidden, visible, and cutaway lines. Finally, common drawing instruments are listed.

Drawing-I
Introduction

• Drawing is a graphic language

• Drawing is the language of engineers


Basic Views
In general, there are 2 types of views

• 2 dimensional views (Orthographic


View)
• 3 dimensional views (Dimetric View,
Trimetric View and Isometric View)

Orthographic Views and Isometric Views will be of


our main interest in this course.
Views of a Solid
A solid object has 6 sides.
Six Orthographic Views can be drawn from six sides.

N.B. Orthographic views projected on planes above are not the exact Orthographic views.
Projected Views on a Plane
Orthographic Views are generated by projecting the
edges of a solid on a plane.
