Theories and Principles of Orthographic Projection

The document discusses theories and principles of orthographic projection. Orthographic projection is a system for graphically representing an object using line drawings on a flat surface. It involves projecting the edges of an object perpendicular to planes of projection. There are three main planes used - horizontal, frontal, and profile - which intersect to form quadrants used for drafting. An orthographic view shows an object from 90 degree angles. Key measurements of an object include its height, width, and depth.

THEORIES AND PRINCIPLES

OF ORTHOGRAPHIC
PROJECTION
Multi-view drawing – a
drawing that shows more than
one view of an object.
Orthographic Projection – A
system for graphical
representation of an object by
a line drawing on a flat
surface.
Orthographic View – a
drawing that shows a side of
an object viewed directly from
90 degrees.
Six (6) Principal Views of an
Object:
The simple work piece below
shows the six (6) principal
sides or views.
An orthographic view is made by
projecting the edge of the object
perpendicular to a plane of
projection.
Planes of Projection
Three planes of projection are
used in orthographic drawing.
These are called the horizontal
plane, frontal plane, and the
profile plane.
The planes of projection join and
form quadrants. The quadrants
are called first angle, second
angle, third angle, and fourth
angle. The first and the third
quadrants are used for drafting
purposes.
Overall Size of the Object
1. Height is the perpendicular
distance between two
horizontal planes.
2. Width is the perpendicular
distance between two profile
planes.
3. Depth is the perpendicular
distance between two frontal
planes.
Directions: Supply the correct
information on each blank.
1. The a system of
orthographic projection that
places the object on the first
quadrant is called ______.
2. Located below the top view
is the _______ of the Third
angle projection.
3. The a system of
orthographic projection that
places the object on the third
quadrant is called ________.
4. Located below the first is
the ______ of the first-angle
projection.
5. The perpendicular distance
between horizontal planes is
referred to as _________.
6. The perpendicular distance
between profile planes is
called ________.
7. The perpendicular distance
between frontal planes is
called ________.
