CHAPTER 14 Pictorial Drawings and Technical Illustrations
Learning Objectives • Draw three-dimensional objects using 3-D coordinates • Construct objects using isometric, diametric, or trimetric methods • Construct objects using oblique drawing methods
Learning Objectives • Draw objects using one-, two-, or three-point perspective • Apply a variety of shading techniques to pictorial drawings • Given an orthographic engineering sketch of a part or assembly, draw the part in pictorial form using proper line contrasts and shading techniques
Pictorial Drawings • Often accompany 2-D orthographic multiviews • Provide a realistic 3-D view • Help improve visualization • Now created using CADD or illustration programs • ASME Y14.4M, Pictorial Drawing standard
Pictorial Drawings • Useful for a variety of applications • Clarify basic and complicated engineering designs • Help designers and engineers work out spatial problems • Most often the basis for technical illustrations
Uses of Pictorial Drawings • Design • Instruction manuals • Parts catalogs • Advertising literature • Technical reports • Presentations • Assembly • Construction
Isometric Projections and Drawings • Equal (iso) measure (metric) • Simplest form of axonometric projection • Single scale for all axes
Regular Isometric • Most common • View the top of the object and the object from either side
Reverse Isometric • View the bottom of the object
Long-Axis Isometric • Common for long objects
Isometric Construction: Box or Coordinate Method • Most common form of isometric construction • Used on objects that have angular or radial features
Isometric Construction: Centerline Layout Method • Used on objects with many circles and arcs • Circles in isometric are isometric ellipses
Drawing Isometric Threads • Equally spaced elliptical arcs • Detailed thread representation
Dimetric Pictorial Representation • Form of axonometric projection • Two different scales for measurement • Missing image – go to page 566
Trimetric Pictorial Representation • Most involved form of axonometric projection • Three different scales for measurement
Exploded Pictorial Drawings • Exploded assembly • Show the relationship of parts in a realistic manner • Commonly used in: • Parts catalogues • Owner's manuals • Assembly instructions
Exploded Pictorial Drawings • Isometric drawings most common • Can include centerlines between part and subassembly axes • Can use solid extension lines between non-cylindrical features, parts, and subassemblies • Can include balloons
Oblique Drawing • Shows three faces of the object • Useful if one face of an object needs to be shown flat
Perspective Drawings • Most realistic pictorial illustration • Show depth and distortion perceived by the human eye • Objects appear smaller the farther away they are until they vanish at a point on the horizon • One-point or parallel perspective • Two-point or angular perspective • Three-point perspective
One-Point Perspective • Plan view is oriented so the front surface of the object is parallel to the picture plane • Elevation view is placed below and to the right or left of the plan and rests on the ground line • Used most often when drawing interiors of rooms
Two-Point Perspective • Two principal planes are at an angle to the picture plane • Two vanishing points provide another dimension to the depth of the perspective • Most popular form of perspective drawing • Exteriors of houses and small buildings • Civil engineering projects • Machine parts (occasionally)
Three-Point Perspective • Time consuming to construct • Often occupy a considerable area on the drawing sheet • Used to illustrate objects having great vertical measurements, such as tall buildings
Drawing Circles and Curves in Perspective • Circles in perspective typically appear as ellipses • Any circle on surface parallel to the picture plane appears as a circle • Construction using the coordinate method
Basic Shading Techniques • Line-contrast shading • Straight-line shading • Block shading • Stipple shading
