Projection of Points
Objectives
 To draw the projections of a point in the four quadrants.
 To identify the position of the point in different quadrants.
Notation
To obtain the projections of points in space, standard notations are followed:
1. The actual points in space are denoted by capital letters A, B, C, D, etc.,
2. The front views are denoted by the corresponding lowercase letters with dashes like
a', b', c', d', etc., and their top views are denoted by the corresponding lowercase
letters like a, b, c, d, etc.
3. Projectors are always drawn as continuous thin lines using a 2H pencil.
4. The visible points are drawn with a H pencil.
5. Lettering is always drawn with a HB pencil.
Quadrant system: The picture planes used for obtaining the orthographic projections
are called the Principal planes of projection or reference planes or co- ordinate planes

PORIYAAN
of projection.
VP: The plane in front of observer is the vertical plane. (VP) or it is also called a
Frontal plane.
Front View (FV): The projection on the VP is called the Front View (FV) or Vertical
Projection or front elevation or Elevation.
HP: The plane which is Horizontal and perpendicular to VP is Horizontal Plane.
Top View (TV): The projection on the HP is called the Top View (TV) or Horizontal
Projection or Plan.
Note: The planes HP and VP are called Principal Planes.
Reference Line: The line of intersection of HP and VP is called reference line, which
is denoted by X-Y.

Projections of a Straight Line

Introduction
The shortest distance between any two points is called a "straight line". Different
surfaces and planes form the configuration or shape of any object. Revolving or moving
straight lines in different ways obtains these surfaces and planes.
Thus a straight line is the basic conceptual figure using which any object like a
machine component or a structural element is represented. Thus projection of a straight
line is the foundation of Engineering Drawing.
We have studied the projections of given points, Joining the respective projections
of two points therefore gives the projection of the straight line joining the two points. As per
ISO convention the first angle of projection is used.

Objectives
 Define straight line.

PORIYAAN
 Draw the projections of a straight line located at different positions with respect to
the VP and the HP.

PROJECTIONS OF SOLIDS
Introduction
An object having three dimensions, i.e., length, breadth and height is called as solid.
In orthographic projection, minimums of two views are necessary to represent a solid.
Front view is used to represent length and height and the top view is used to represent
length and breadth.
Sometimes the above two views are not sufficient to represent the details. So a third
view called as side view either from left or from right is necessary.
Objectives
At the end of this session, you will be able to
 Classify the different types of solids
 Draw the projections of solids in various positions in the given quadrant
Classification of Solids
Solids are classified into two groups. They are

PORIYAAN
 Polyhedra
 Solids of Revolution
Polyhedra
A solid, which is bounded by plane surfaces or faces, is called apolyhedron.
Polyhedra are classified into three sub groups; these are
1. Regular Polyhedra
2. Prisms
3. Pyramids
1. Regular Polyhedra

Polyhedra are regular if all their plane surfaces are regular polygons of the same
shape and size. The regular plane surfaces are called "Faces" and the lines connecting
adjacent faces are called "edges".

Tetrahedran Octahedran Hexahedran

2. Prisms:

A prism has two equal and similar end faces called the top face and the bottom face or
(base) joined by the other faces, which may be rectangles or parallelograms.

Rectangular Prism Pentagonal Prism Hexagonal Prism

3. Pyramids:

A pyramid has a plane figure as at its base and an equal number of isosceles triangular
faces that meet at a common point called the "vertex" or "apex". The line joining the apex
and a corner of its base is called the slant edge. Pyramids are named according to the
shapes of their bases.

Rectangular Pyramid Pentagonal Pyramid Hexagonal Pyramid

Solids of Revolution:
If a plane surface is revolved about one of its edges, the solid generated is called a Solid
ofRevolution.

Cone
PORIYAAN
A cone can be generated by the revolution of a right-angled triangle about one of its
perpendicular sides, which remains fixed. A cone has a circular base and an apex. Theline
joining apex and the centre of the base is called the “Axis” of the cone.

Sphere
A sphere can be generated by the revolution of a semi-circle about its diameter that
remains fixed.

Cylinder

A right circular cylinder is a solid generated by the revolution of a rectangular surface

aboutone of its sides, which remains fixed. It has two circular faces. The line joining the
centres of the top and the bottom faces is called “Axis”.
FRUSTUMS AND TRUNCATED SOLIDS
When a solid is cut by a plane parallel to its base, thus removing the top portion, the
remaining lower portion is called frustum. When a solid is cut by a plane inclined to its
base, thus removing the top cut portion, the remaining lower portion of the solid is called
truncated.

Face
PORIYAAN
Terms used in solids
- The surface formed by closed figure.
Lateral face - A face other than end face or base
Axis - A imaginary line joining the centres of ends or base and apex
Base -The resting face of solid
Corners -The intersection of edges
Apex/vertex - The point at which the lateral edge meetEdge - The line of
intersection of faces Regular solid - Solid which has equal faces
Oblique solid - Solid which has its axis inclined to the base
Generators - An imaginary edge on the lateral surfaces of cylinder/cone
Slant edge - The edge joining apex and corner
Frustum - Solid is cut parallel to the base and removing the top portion
Truncated - Solid is cut inclined to the base and removing the top cut portion

Axis parallel to VP and inclined to HP:

Axis inclined to one of the principal planes and parallel to the other. When the axis of a
solid is inclined to any plane, the projections are obtained in two stages. In the first stage,
the axis of the solid is assumed to be perpendicular to the plane to which it is actually
inclined and the projections are drawn. In second stage, the position of one of the
projections is altered to satisfy the given condition and the other view is projected from it.
This method of obtaining the projections is known as the change of position method.
In the change of reference line method, or auxiliary plan method an auxiliary plane is
introduced as stipulated and the required final front view is projected on it. This means that
a new reference line is to be drawn to represent the auxiliary plane and the required
projection drawn
