Isometric and Projection Techniques

The document discusses different types of technical drawings used in engineering. It describes isometric projection as a method to represent 3D objects in 2D by foreshortening the three axes at 120 degree angles. It also covers orthographic, oblique, and perspective projections, and explains first and third angle projections place the object in different quadrants of the projection plane. The document provides examples and diagrams to illustrate each type of projection.

ISOMETRIC PROJECTION
Iso means equal and metric projection means a projection to a
reduced measure.
Isometric projection is a method for visually representing threedimensional objects in two dimensions in technical and engineering
drawings. It is an axonometric projection in which the
three coordinate axes appear equally foreshortened and the angles
between any two of them are 120 degrees.

VIEWS

Civil Engineering drawing

Isometric: Receding lines drawn at 30 and are usually kept at true measured
lengths.

Perspective: Used more with freehand sketching. Parallel lines appear to


converge and meet at what is referred to as the vanishing point. You can have
one, two or three vanishing points (VP).

Civil Engineering drawing

Oblique: Front face sketched as a true shape. Starts with two axes, one
horizontal, one vertical. The third axis is usually drawn at 45 and lengths are
reduced by 50% of true lengths. Sometimes called 'cabinet' projection

ANGLE PROJECTION
Projections created with the object placed in the first quadrant are said to be in First
Angle projection, and likewise, projections created with the object placed in the third
quadrant are said to be in Third Angle projection.

3rd Angle Projection

ANGLE PROJECTION
Both systems of projection, First and Third angle, are approved internationally and
have equal status. The system used must be clearly indicated on every drawing, using
the appropriate symbol.
