C

Identify three principal planes of projection. Explain three visualization principles for multiview drawings. Identify the three types of at surfaces. Explain characteristics of cylindrical surfaces. Explain characteristics of llets, rounds, and runouts. Identify differences between third-angle and rstangle projection. The purpose of a drawing is to show the size and shape of the object. A drawing can also provide certain information on how an object is to be made. Various methods of presentation are available to the designer or drafter. However, the best way to show every feature of an object in its true size and shape is to use an arrangement of more than one view known as a multiview drawing. Multiview drawings are created using the principles of orthographic projection. Many drafting and print reading texts use the terms orthographic projection and multiview drawing interchangeably.

The projectors are perpendicular to the projection plane, thus resulting in an exact and very precise view. If more than one projection plane is used, the result is a multiview projection. In general terms, a multiview drawing is a drawing based on the principles of orthographic projection. The different views of a multiview drawing are systematically arranged. This allows anyone reading the drawing to connect the views together, thus forming a mental picture, Figure 5-1.

Projection Explained
A skilled technician reading a print must be able to visualize the object as a whole. This means they must be able to look at the views in a drawing and interpret those into a mental picture. Understanding how views are projected and arranged will help you later in the visualization process. One way to help you understand the multiview system is to observe how a cardboard box unfolds. Each side of the box is oriented similar to orthographic projection views. The sides are at right angles to each other and have a denite relationship. See Figure 5-2. If the front of the box remains in position, the four adjoining sides unfold similar to how the views of a multiview drawing are arranged. Now think of the cardboard box as made out of glass. Place an object inside of the glass box and imagine that the points of the object are projected onto the glass planes as views. See Figure 5-3. Imaginary projection lines are used to bring the separate views to each projection plane. If the glass box is unfolded like the cardboard box, six views are shown in an orthographic arrangement. Once you have perfected mentally projecting orthographic views using the glass box, you will be able to see orthographic views looking at any object, Figure 5-4.

Orthographic Projections of Views


Any view of an object drawn by a drafter can be explained as the projection of an objects features onto a two-dimensional plane. For a drawing, the plane is often a piece of paper or computer screen. Simply dened, orthographic projection is a system wherein parallel lines, called projectors, are used to project the object onto a projection plane.

Selection of Views
An orthographic projection can result in six normal views, as previously illustrated. Since there are three directions in space, an object can be viewed from the right or left, top or bottom, and front or back. However, only those views necessary to clearly describe the object need to appear in the

drawing. Seldom is an object so complex that all six normal views are required. Usually, the necessary details can be shown in two or three views. Three views will almost always fully describe an object, but more views can be used if there is a lot of detail on the opposite sides of an object. Directions other than the six normal directions are dened as auxiliary views, which are discussed in Unit 7.

Figure 5-3. If an object is placed inside of a glass box and projected onto each side, when the glass box is unfolded, six views are shown in an orthographic arrangement.

principal planes of projection will be established and only three regular views used. The front view will project onto a plane called the frontal plane, the top view will project onto a plane called the horizontal plane, and the right side view will project onto a plane called the prole plane. See Figure 5-5. With these three planes of projection in mind, here are some principles to help you read the print.
Right side

Three Types of Surfaces


There are three basic types of at surfaces in an orthographic projection. A normal surface is parallel to one of the three projection planes and, therefore, perpendicular to the other two. For example, each surface of a cube is normal and the top at surface of a cylinder is normal. If normal surfaces are examined with respect to the three principles: A normal surface appears true size and shape in only one view. The normal surface appears as a line in two of the three regular views. Think about this for a while. Very often, when you look at a line in a multiview drawing, you are looking at the edge view of a surface. When you look at the front view of a cube, you see the top and right side surfaces as lines. Study Figure 5-8A. With respect to the top surface of the cube in the front view, if you only see the front edge along the front surface, you are still thinking in two dimensions. As your visualization ability increases, you will see these lines as surfaces that extend back.

Front

Right side

Principle One. A at surface is oriented perpendicular, parallel, or inclined to a plane of projection. See Figure 5-6. Principle Two. As a result of Principle One, all at surfaces appear in a multiview drawing as: A) a line, if oriented perpendicular. B) true size and shape, if oriented parallel. C) foreshortened, if oriented inclined. See Figure 5-7. Principle Three. All surfaces appear in every view of a multiview drawing, even if only as a line and even if represented by a hidden line.

Figure 5-4. Looking at a three-dimensional object, you must be able to see the orthographic views of the object.

In educational settings, the front, top, and right side views are typically used to describe an object. This type of drawing can be referred to as a three-view drawing. Yet, many objects made of at sheet metal require only one view, while cylindrical objects may only require two views. The following rules will help in the selection of views. Only views clearly describing the shape of the object should be drawn. Select views containing the fewest hidden lines. For reference, compare the two side views in Figure 5-3. If practical, draw the object in its functioning (operating) position. If practical, draw the view best describing the shape of the object as the front view.

Frontal Figure 5-5. Three basic projection planes are used to explain multiview drawings.

One of the keys to reading a multiview drawing is familiarity with the terminology used for the dimensions of an object. It is critical to discuss the scientic explanation of projections using standard terms. As you have probably noticed, each projected view is two dimensional, even though the object is three dimensional.

Visualization of Objects
Another necessary step on the road to successful print reading is understanding how views are created by projection. You will examine how at, or planar, surfaces are oriented in space and how they appear in a multiview drawing. At this stage, three

Profile

Dimensions of an Object

Throughout the eld of drafting, three terms predominantly used for the three dimensions of an object are height, width, and depth. The height and width of the object are shown in the front view, but not the depth. The width and depth of the object are shown in the top view, but not the height. The height and depth of an object are shown in a side view, but not the width. Height is dened as the top-to-bottom measurement for an object, as you look at the front view. Remember, the front of the object is not always selected as the front view! Width is dened as the left-to-right measurement of an object, as you look at the front view. Depth is dened as the front-to-back distance of the object, as based on the orientation of the object for the views. Standardizing the terms used for the measurements is critical to studying print reading and for completing the exercises in this unit.

A second type of at surface is the inclined surface. An inclined surface is perpendicular to one plane of projection, but inclined to the other two planes of projection. If inclined surfaces are examined with respect to the three principles: An inclined surface appears as a line in only one of the three regular views. An inclined surface appears as a foreshortened shape in two of the three regular views. Study Figure 5-8B. Surface C is perpendicular to the frontal plane, so it appears as a line in the front view. However, it is inclined to the horizontal and prole planes, so it appears as a foreshortened shape in those two views. Analyze surfaces A and B in the same way. In summary, the shape of an inclined surface appears twice in three regular views, but a normal surface shape only appears once! The normal surface is true size and shape, but the inclined surface is never true size and shape in a regular view. A third type of planar surface is the oblique surface. An oblique surface is not only inclined, but rotated. Therefore, it is inclined to all three planes of projection. It is not true shape and size in any view. In fact, it may appear a little distorted due to the projection angle it forms with the projection plane. It also does not appear as a line in any view. See Figure 5-9.

Cylindrical and Curved Surfaces


Cylindrical surfaces present another set of visual challenges to the print reader. Technically, cylindrical surfaces are made of thousands of elements that form a curved surface about an axis, Figure 5-10. The designer has often planned it so that a at surface is tangent to a curved surface, thus making a smooth transition between the curve and the at. See objects B and D in Figure 5-10. In these cases, no lines are shown at the element of tangency. Be aware, however, some CAD programs that automatically generate the views from the model show these elements of tangency. Also, when at surfaces form intersections and cutouts with cylindrical surfaces, the projections can be tricky. Study Figure 5-11 to help you visualize how cylindrical surfaces are projected in multiview drawings.

meanings a line in a multiview drawing can have, whether it is visible or hidden. As you learn how to read prints, keep these three meanings in mind.

First-Angle and Third-Angle Projection


The system of projection explained earlier in the unit is common throughout the United States. The projection of a view is basically what the viewer sees when looking at the object through the glass projection plane. The glass box is unfolded in such a way as to place the top view above the front view. This is known as third-angle projection. In many countries, especially in Europe, a slightly different projection system is used that results in the views being located differently. The two projection systems used in industrial drawings are identied as third-angle projection and rst-angle projection. These two types result from a theoretical division of space into four quadrants by vertical and horizontal planes, Figure 5-15. The viewer of the four quadrants is considered to be in front of the frontal plane and above the horizontal plane. The views are arranged by folding the two planes into one by collapsing the second and fourth quadrants and the views are then seen from the front. As a result of this, there are no second or fourth angle projections. If there were, the views would overlap.

Figure 5-11. This gure helps illustrate how cylindrical surfaces are projected in multiview drawings. Runout Figure 5-13. When rounded edges intersect curved surfaces, a runout is used to show how the edge tails out. Computer-generated views from a CAD model may show this differently.

Fillets, Rounds, and Runouts


Molded and cast objects have rounded edges called llets and rounds. See Figure 5-12. Fillets are interior rounded edges. Rounds are exterior rounded edges. Most CAD programs have a command called FILLET to perform this task of rounding corners, both interior and exterior.

Round

These rounded corners also create situations where the drafter has to decide whether or not to project the edge. Conventional practice calls for the lines to be shown if needed for clarity in describing the object. This is sometimes a judgment call. If the edge is shown, the line is projected as if the corner is sharp or square. When a rounded corner intersects a curved surface, the edge fades, or tails out. This is called a runout. Note, however, this is different than runout as dened in Unit 13, Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing. See Figure 5-13 for an example of how runouts may be drawn. This is another case wherein views automatically created from a 3D model by the CAD program may differ from views created by a CAD operator using twodimensional CAD lines and conventional practice.

Meanings of a Multiview Line


In summary, there are many different perimeter shapes that a at surface can have, from circular, to square, to polygonal. Yet, if the surface is perpendicular to the projection plane, it simply projects as a line. Therefore, many lines in a multiview drawing represent the edge view of planar surfaces. Curved surfaces also are seen as edge views if the curved surface is perpendicular to the projection plane. See Figure 5-14. A second meaning a multiview line can have is simply an intersectionan edge where two surfaces meet and nothing more. A third meaning a multiview line can have is the maximum contour element of a curved surface. In some views, this will be represented by a line. These are the three

Figure 5-15. The two types of projection are based on a theoretical division of space into four quadrants. Quadrants two and four are not used.

As presented earlier in the unit, in third-angle projection, the object resides in the third angle of space. So, the projection planes are considered to be between the viewer and the object. The views are projected toward the viewer onto the planes. See Figure 5-16. When quadrants two and four are collapsed, the top view appears above the front view. In contrast, in rst-angle projection, the object resides in the rst angle of space. So, the projection planes are on the opposite sides of the object as the viewer. In other words, the object is between the viewer and the projection planes. See Figure 5-17. The individual views are the same as those obtained in third-angle projection, but their arrangement on the drawing is different. In essence, the top view ends up below the front view and a right side view is on the left side of the front view. In summary, the individual views are the same for both angles of projection. The only difference between the two types is the arrangement of views on the drawing. The ASME and ISO standard symbols to indicate rst-angle and third-angle projection are shown in Figure 5-18. One of the two versions of the symbol should be included in the title block for drawings that are read within the international community.
