PROJECTIONS OF SOLIDS

1. PROJECTIONS OF SOLIDS

2. PROJECTIONS OF SOLIDS Definition of Solid: A solid is a three dimensional object having length, breadth and thickness. It is completely bounded by a surface or surfaces which may be curved or plane. -The shape of the solid is described by drawing its two orthographic views usually on the two principle planes i.e. H.P. & V.P. -For some complicated solids, in addition to the above principle views, side view is also required. -A solid is an aggregate of points, lines and planes and all problems on projections of solids would resolve themselves into projections of points, lines and planes.

3. Classification of Solids: Solids may be divided into two main groups; (A) Polyhedra (B) Solids of revolution (A) Polyhedra : APolyhedrais defined as a solidbounded by planes calledfaceswhichmeet in straight lines callededges.

4. There are seven regular Polyhedra which may be defined as stated below; (1) Prism (2) Pyramid (3) Tetrahedron (4) Cube or Hexahedron: (5) Octahedron: (6) Dodecahedron: (7) Icosahedron:

5. (1) Prism: Faces Edge Axis It is a polyhedra having two equal and similar faces called its ends or bases, parallel to each other and joined by other faces which are rectangles. -The imaginary line joining the Centres of the bases or faces is called Axis of Prism.

6. According to the shape of its base, prism can be sub classified into following types: (a) Triangular Prism: (b) Square Prism:

7. (c) Pentagonal Prism: (d) Hexagonal Prism:

8. (2) Pyramid: Edge Axis Base This is a polyhedra having plane surface as a base and a number of triangular faces meeting at apoint called theVertexor Apex. -The imaginary line joining the Apex with the Centre of the base is calledAxisof pyramid.

9. According to the shape of its base, pyramid can be sub classified into following types: (a) Triangular Pyramid: (b) Square Pyramid:

10. (c) Pentagonal Pyramid: (d) Hexagonal Pyramid:

11. (B) Solids of Revolutions: When a solid is generated by revolutions of a plane figure about a fixed line (Axis) then such solids are named as solids of revolution. Solids of revolutions may be of following types; (1) Cylinder (2) Cone (3) Sphere (4) Ellipsoid (5) Paraboloid (6) Hyperboloid

12. Rectangle Axis Base (1) Cylinder: A right regular cylinder is a solid generated by the revolution of a rectangle about its vertical side which remains fixed.

13. Generators Right angle triangle Axis Base (2) Cone: A right circular cone is a solid generated by the revolution of a right angle triangle about its vertical side which remains fixed.

14. Important Terms Used in Projections of Solids: (1) Edge or generator: For Pyramids & Prisms, edges are the lines separating the triangular faces or rectangular faces from each other. For Cylinder, generators are the straight lines joining different points on the circumference of the bases with each other

15. Important Terms Used in Projections of Solids: Apex Edges PYRAMID Apex Generators CONE (2) Apex of solids: ForCone and Pyramids, Apex is the point where all the generators or the edges meet.

16. Rectangle Axis Generators Faces Base Edge Axis CYLINDER PRISM

17. Important Terms Used in Projections of Solids: (3) Axis of Solid: For Cone and Pyramids, Axis is an imaginary line joining centre of the base to the Apex. For Cylinder and Prism, Axis is an imaginary line joining centres of ends or bases.

18. Important Terms Used in Projections of Solids: Axis Base (4) Right Solid: A solid is said to be a Right Solid if its axis is perpendicular to its base.

19. Important Terms Used in Projections of Solids: Axis Base (5) Oblique Solid: A solid is said to be aOblique Solidif its axis is inclined at an angle other than 90° to its base.

20. Important Terms Used in Projections of Solids: (6) Regular Solid: A solid is said to be a Regular Solid if all the edges of the base or the end faces of a solid are equal in length and form regular plane figures

21. Important Terms Used in Projections of Solids: CUTTING PLANE PARALLEL TO BASE FRUSTUM OF A PYRAMID (7) Frustum of Solid: When a Pyramid or a Cone is cut by a Plane parallel to its base, thus removing the top portion, the remaining lower portion is called its frustum.

22. Important Terms Used in Projections of Solids: (8) Truncated Solid : When a Pyramid or a Cone is cut by a Plane inclined to its base, thus removing the top portion, the remaining lower portion is said to be truncated.
