Definition
  • Viewed from multiple pts at an infin. dist.
  • Not very realistic but easier to draw

  • Viewed from a single pt at a finite dist.
  • Much more realistic but harder to draw
Term
Orthographic Projection
Definition
Utilizes parallel projection to create a projection between the observer and the object that is perpendicular to the LOS. Create 2-D views which adequately describe 3-D objects. Views are defined relative to a refernce view.

Horizontal Plane of Projections

x and z

Definition
  • View created after the front view
  • Viewed looking down the Y-axis (top view)

Side View of Projection

y and z

  • Viewed looking down the X-axis  (right-side view)
  • Shows the objects length and depth which is the __ and __ directions in AutoCAD
Term
adjacent views
Definition
Traditionally the principle views have the widths aligned for the front and top views, the heights are aligned for the front and right views and the depths are aligned (via a miter line) for the top and right views. These are called _______
Term
Adjacent views
Definition
share one dimension (Ex. front and right side share the length dimension)
Term
Related Views
Definition
Views separated by two 90 degrees rotations, same distances between common features (Ex. top and right views)
Term
Central View
Definition
View from with the other adjacent views are aligned.
Term
Alignment of Features
Definition
Every point or feature in one view must be aligned on a parallel projector in any adjacent view
Term
Distances in Related Views
Definition
Distances between any two points of a feature in related views must be the same
Term
True Length and Size
Definition
Features are true length or true size when they are parallel to the projected plane
Term
Foreshortening
Definition
Features are foreshortened when they  are not parallel to the projection plane
Term
Configuration of Planes
Definition
Areas that are the same feature will always be similar in config. from 1 view to the next, unless viewed on edge
Term
Parallel Features
Definition
Parallel features will always appear parallel in all views
Term
Edge Views
Definition
Surfaces that are parallel to the lines of sight will appear as lines
Term
Contiguous areas
Definition
No two contiguous areas can lie in the same plane
Term
Center lines
Definition
mark center of circle/arc
Term
Phantom lines
Definition
alternate config of movable object
Term
Break lines
Definition
shows where object is broken to reveal interior feature, or save space
Term
Section lines
Definition
interior surface of cut object
Term
Fundamental Views
Definition
Views in a multiview drawing that show the true size of planes and edges.
Term
edge line
Definition
An _______ is the line at which two planes intersect. Is drawn wherever two nonparallel surfaces meet.
Term
normal line
Definition
A ________ is parallel to the projection plane and is thus at true size.
Term
inclined line
Definition
An ________ is an edge line parallel to the projection plane but not to the adjacent views, therefore adjacent views do not represent the true size of the feature.
Term
oblique line
Definition
An _______ is not parallel to any fo the principle views.
Term
principle plane
Definition
A ________ is parallel to the projection plane, therefore it is a true size feature. Will appear as a line in adjacent views. Can be categorized according to the projection plane.
Term
inclined plane
Definition
An _________ is perpendicular (appears as an edge) to one of the projection planes) Its true size can not be determined from the 6 principle views
Term
oblique plane
Definition
An ________ isnt parallel or perpendicular to any of the projection planes. Its true size can not be determined from the six principle views
Term
points, lines, and planes.

A 2-D multiview drawing seeks to represent a 3-D solid object through....
Term
Points
Definition
  • Represents a specific position in space.
  • A line that is parallel to the line of sight will appear as a point on the projection plane
Term
Planes

Definition
_________: objects are dimensioned in their most descriptive view
Term
  • Every dimension must have an associated tolerance

Dimension Guidelines: 1-3
Term
  • Include a visible gap between the object and extension line
  • Avoid dimension within an object
