2.1 Introduction

Principle of Orthographic projection


 Projection: is the image of an object represented /
drawn on a plane of projection /picture plane as it
would appear to the observer stationed at a point and
viewing along the direction of line of projection .
 Projectors / lines of projection: are an imaginary
lines that emerges from observer’s eyes and moves to
contour of an object.
 Station point: is the location of an observer.

 Plane of projection / picture plane: are an


imaginary plane on which the image of an
objected is represent / drawn.
 The plane on which principal view of an object
is represented / drawn is called principal plane.
 The planes are assumed to expand infinitely
and transparent.
Cont…
 The three principal plane are vertical plane used to represent front /
rear view; horizontal plane used represent top / bottom view; and
profile plane used to represent right / left side view of an object.

Orthographic Projection
 The word orthographic means to draw at right
angles and is derived from the Greek words:
ORTHOS - straight, rectangular, upright and
GRAPHOS - written, drawn.
 Orthographic projection is a parallel projection. It is
used as an unambiguous and accurate way of
providing information, primarily for manufacturing
and detail design.
Purpose
To graphically represent a 3-D object on 2-D media
(paper, screen etc.).

Concept
A projection theory is based on 2 variables:
1) Line of sight
2) Plane of projection (image or picture plane)

Line of sight (LOS)


is an imaginary ray of light
LOS
between an observer’s eye project
i on
line
and an object.

Plane of projection
is an imaginary flat plane upon
which the image created by the
LOS is projected.
Line of sight
Lines of sight can be parallel or converge.

Parallel projection Converge projection

Line of sight
The parallel projection lines can be normal (orthogonal)
or oblique to the plane of projection.
In this course, we consider only a parallel and orthogonal
projection, i.e. orthographic projection.

by viewing the object from a different direction.

First Angle Projection

 When the object is situated in First Quadrant;


that is in front of V.P and above H.P, the
projections obtained on these planes is called
First angle projection.
 The object lies in between the observer and the
plane of projection.
Third Angle Projection

 The object is situated in Third Quadrant. The


Planes of projection lie between the object and
the observer. The front view comes below the
XY line and the top view about it.

2.7 Missing views and lines

The lines missed to complete the drawing of an object are


called missing lines.
The true and correct shape and size of an object can be
rightly understood by drawing multi-view orthographic
projections.
 In general practice, three views are sufficient to clear the
shape of an object.
Incase of simple objects, two views are enough.
Missing Lines
 Missing lines are a common problem in drawings,
especially sketches done by hand.
 Missing lines can be visible, hidden, or centerlines.

 Missing Lines are found by lining up views and comparing

features (similar to point, edge, surface tracking)


Missing Views
 Missing views are a challenge for 3D visualization.
 Using information in orthographic views, the missing 3 rd
view can be determined.
