Multiview and 3D Drawings By Carlin Bright
Axonometric Projections • A 3D projection that allows you to see all three axes
Axonometric Projections • Isometric – all three axes are at the same scale • Dimetric – only two axes at the same scale (example, oblique) • Trimetric – all three axes at different scales
Isometric Projections • All three axes are the same scale and there is 120° between each axis
Isometric Projections • Use a special grid paper when sketching
Isometric Projection Isometric • All lines parallel to the axes are called “isometric lines” • All lines not parallel to the axes are “non-isometric lines,” which means they CANNOT be measured along the same scale as the isometric lines Non-Isometric
Dimensioning • Extension lines should continue along axes
Oblique Projection • A type of dimetric projection • Two axes are perpendicular to each other • The third axis is at an arbitrary angle, usually 30° or 45°
Orthographic Projections • Like the single view drawings we have been doing, ORTHOGRAPHIC PROJECTIONS look at one side of an object
Orthographic Projections • MULTIPLE orthographic projections are necessary to fully define an object
Orthographic Projections • Imagine the object you are going to draw is in a glass box, with the large flat surfaces of the object parallel to the walls of the box • As you look directly at each side of the box you see what would be visible in the total of 6 different views (top, bottom, front, back, left, and right)
Orthographic Projections • Projections are arranged in this standard way: TOP REAR LEFT FRONT RIGHT BOTTOM
Orthographic Projections • How many views should you include in a multiview? • Only as many as is needed to define the object
Orthographic Projections • Hidden and Center Lines are used the same as in single view
Orthographic Projections • Use a miter line to transfer depth from the top to the side view, or vice versa
Orthographic Projections • Important vocab: • Adjacent view – a view that is next to the view you are looking at (the front and side views) • Central view – a view that is between two other views (the front view) • Related views – views that are adjacent to a central view (the top and side views)
Dimensioning • When dimensioning a multiview drawing (top, front, and side), only use as many dimensions as needed to fully define • Example, the WIDTH of a drawing does not need to be included on the top view and the front view, just one or the other
