Introduction
1.1. History of technical drawing
• Historically drawing is started by the caveman. He uses for communication to lead
his day to day life.
1
cut having an included angle of 90° is to be made through the entire length of the
block. The cut is to be made with the block resting on the three inch by six inch
surface. The v-cut
cut is to begin one-quarter
one quarter inch from the outside edges. At the bottom
of the v-cut
cut there is to be a relief slot one-eighth
one eighth inch wide by one-eighth
one inch deep.
Exercise:
How would you describe the following object? In team of two, describe using only
words. How effective is this approach? (You can give appropriate dimensions by your
own).

• Drawing broad:
– Drawing tables come in many different size and design. It could be fixed,
movable, with drawer, adjustable, etc.
– They are used to attach drawing sheet.
– Keep your drawing table clean and dry not to affect your drawing quality.
– Don’t use blades to cut drafting tapes on drawing table.
• Drawing sheet:
– Made from different materials with different quality. Such as, paper, tracing
paper, vellum, tracing cloth, glass cloth or film.
– Drawing sheets will determine selection of pencil grade.

15
1.11. A Few Basic Points for a Drawing
• Should be complete and unambiguous.
• Should be neat and easy to read.
• Use only as many views as necessary to show all required detail.
• Apply tolerances realistically - overly tight tolerances can add a great deal of
additional cost with little or no added value to the part.
16
Chapter Two
Theory of 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 imaginary lines that emerge 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.
The three principal planes are vertical plane used to represent front/rear view;
horizontal plane used to represent top/bottom view; and profile plane used to
represent right/left side view of an object.

Axonometric Projection:
• If the object is turned and tilted so that the three faces are inclined to the plane of
projection is a special type of orthographic projection known as Axonometric
projection.
• Note that, the projectors from the object to the plane are perpendicular to the
plane.
19
2.2.1. Oblique Projection
• This form differs from orthographic projection in that, although one face (front) is
imagined parallel to the plane of projection, the projectors make an angle other
than 900.
• Front face sketched as a true shape which starts with two axes, one horizontal and
one vertical. The third axis is usually drawn at 450, 300 and 600.
20
2.2.2. 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.
To defining the six principal views or orthographic views there are two methods:
1. Natural method and
2. Glass box method
1. Natural method: Each of the necessary view is obtained by looking directly at the
particular side of the object the view is to represent. In this case, the object will be
revolved to produce the six basic views or the observer move around the object.
21
2. Glass box method: Most powerful technique to understand orthographic
projections.
- Suspend the object with transparent strings inside a glass box.
- Fix the view from each direction (each of the six sides of the box) and
unfold the box.
Glass box method will be discussed in chapter there.
22
Chapter Three
Multi-view Drawings
Multi-view drawing is the graphic representation of an object on a sheet of paper in a
way that will describe exact shape and proportions. This is done by drawing different
views of the object as it is seen from different positions. These views are then
arranged in a standard order so that anyone familiar with drafting practices can
understand them immediately.
23
3.1.1. First angel projection
Taking front view as reference, in first angle projection, when right side view of an
object is taken; it is drawn to the left of front view and the top view is drawn below
front
nt view. The layout is as shown in (a):

Width, Height and Depth Relationships:
• All three-dimensional objects have width, height, and depth.
– Height: Distance from top to bottom
– Width: Distance from side to side
– Depth: Distance from the front to back
• The width of front, rear, top, and bottom views is equal.
• The height of front, rear, right side and left side views is equal.
• The depth of top, bottom, right side and left side views is equal.
Projection of point(s):
Normal lines are parallel to two of the projection planes and they appear as a true
length on these planes and as a point on the other plane.
31
3.5.2. Projection of Inclined Line
Inclined lines are lines inclined to two of the projection planes and parallel to the
other plane; they appear as foreshorten on these planes and appear as a true length
on the plane parallel to it.
Oblique lines are lines which are inclined to all the principal projection planes.
32
3.6. Projection of Surfaces (Planar and Non-Planar)
Non Planar)
• Planer surfaces are surfaces that can overlap with a plane. Include flat surfaces.
• Non-planer
planer surfaces are surfaces that do not overlap with a plane. Include
rounds, fillets, curved surfaces,
surfac etc.
Normal planer surfaces are parallel to one of the projection plane and they appear as a
true shape and size on this plane and as a line (edge view) on the other adjust plane.
33
3.6.2. Projection of Inclined Plane
Inclined planer surfaces are perpendicular to one of the projection plane and they
appear as a line (edge view) on this plane and as a foreshortened surface on the other
adjust planes. To represent inclined planer surfaces’ true shape and size auxiliary
view is needed.
Oblique planer surfaces are oblique to all of the projection planes and they appear as a
foreshortened surface on all the planes. To represent oblique planer surfaces’ true
shape and sized auxiliary view is needed.

35
Intersections and Tangencies:
When a curved surface is tangent to a plane surface, no line should be shown where
they intersect.
36
3.9. Precedence of Lines
In some views there is likely to be a coincidence (overlap) of lines. Thus, it is
necessary to follow a consistent rule as to which takes precedence over the other.
Example:
37
Hidden arcs should start on a center line as shown below:
Leave the gap when centerline forms a continuation with a visible or hidden line.
Center line should always start and end with long dash.

Types of convention practice:
a) Alternate position of side view,
b) Incomplete view,
i. Incomplete side view
ii. Partial view
iii. Half view
iv. Local view
c) Aligned view
d) Enlarged view
e) Non-existing intersection line
f) Intersection : Hole on a cylinder
b) Incomplete view
i. Incomplete side view
Incomplete side views are side views that are eliminated a feature that cannot
clearly seen from a selected viewing direction.
39
ii. Partial view
Partial view is a view that represents portion of the part that have features need to
be clarified.
40
iv. Local view
Local view is a view that shows only features need to clarify.
c) Aligned view:
Align view is a view that is drawn by imaginarily rotating the object’s features,
appeared in a principal view about symmetry axis.
For an object that has symmetrical positioned features, it is advisable to show them on
adjacent view in true size at true radial distance from the symmetry axis.
41
d) Enlarged view:
Enlarged view is a view partly selected from full view and is drawn with a larger
scale. At full view, the selected portion is framed by continuous thin line and having a
name. For an enlarged view, it must be specified both name and scale used.
42
e) Non-existing intersection line:
Non-existing line of intersection is the line of intersecting surfaces that are eliminated
by fillets and rounds.
When true projection mislead the representation of an object, it is necessary to show
the additional lines that are projected from the actual intersection of the surfaces as if
the fillets and rounds were not present.
43
Further example on non-existing intersection lines in a multi-view drawing:

Chapter Four
Pictorial Drawing
A pictorial drawing is a method of producing a three-dimensional object from a two-
dimensional view, which shows the three main faces indicating the height, width and
depth simultaneously. It is an essential part of the graphic language.
50
4.2.1. Axonometric Projection
Axonometric projection is a projected view in which the lines of sight are
perpendicular to the plane of projection, but the three faces of a rectangular object are
all inclined to the plane of projection.
The receding lines are drawn at 300 from the horizontal and the others are vertical.
Consider the following cubic object and follow the procedure to make an isometric
projection.
51
4.2.1.3. Trimetric projection
Cavalier Cabinet
52
General
53
Two point perspective: has two vanishing points (VP).
54
Positions of Isometric Axes:
Isometric axes are three lines that have common intersection points; the angle
between each axis equals 120 0. The plane made by two isometric axes is called
isometric plane. Isometric axes can be arbitrarily positioned to create different views
of a single object.
55
4.4. Oblique Drawings
Difference between Oblique Projection and Oblique Drawing:
Oblique Axes:
• Oblique axes are three namely, vertical, horizontal and receding axis; and the axes
have common intersection points. The plane made by vertical and horizontal axis
is called normal plane. The normal plane represents front view with true shape.
• The advantage of oblique pictorials over isometric pictorials is that circular shapes
parallel to normal plane are shown true shape and easy to sketch.
56
Sketching pictorials from multi-view drawings:
1. Interpret the meaning of lines/areas in multi-view drawing.
2. Locate the lines or surfaces relative to isometric axis.
Examples:
57
4.6. Circles, Arcs, & Irregular Curves in Pictorial Drawings
Circles in Pictorial:
Circles in pictorial drawing always become ellipses except it is parallel to normal
plane of oblique pictorial. In isometric drawing circles always become ellipse. In
oblique drawing when the circle is parallel to normal plane, it is drawn as its true
shape and become circle; for other planes other than normal plane the circle becomes
ellipse.
Methods to Draw Ellipse:
There are two methods to draw ellipses in pictorial drawings namely:
Offset Method:
Diagonal approach and division approach can be used in offset method.
Steps in diagonal approach of offset method:
58
5. Draw a rhombus using the diameter of a circle.
6. Construct perpendicular bisecting lines from each side of rhombus.
7. Draw lines from obtuse angle corners to opposite side of rhombus by intersecting
the midpoint.
8. Locate the four centers.
9. Draw the arcs with this centers and tangent to rhombus.
Arcs in Pictorial:
Steps:
1. Construct points along the curve in multi-view drawing.
2. Locate these points in the pictorial view.
3. Sketch the connecting lines.
59
Hidden Lines in Pictorial Drawing:
• In pictorial drawings, hidden lines are omitted unless they are absolutely necessary
to completely describe the object. Most pictorial drawings will not have hidden
lines.
• To avoid using hidden lines, choose the most descriptive viewpoint. However, if a
pictorial viewpoint cannot clearly depict all the major features, hidden lines may
be used.
60
Exercise
Given two projection of a model, construct a third one (if necessary) and a pictorial
drawing of the model.

Chapter Five
Auxiliary Views
It is already seen how the principal views of an object can be represented using the
glass box approach to surface identification. However, when an object has a surface
that is not parallel to any side of the glass box additional view is required for the sake
of true shape and size called auxiliary view. The plane used to represent the auxiliary
view is auxiliary plane.
Slanted surfaces that need auxiliary plane are inclined and oblique surfaces. Inclined
surfaces need single auxiliary plane to represent their true shape and size; whereas
oblique surfaces need two auxiliary planes to represent their true shape and size.
The glass box method can be used here by adding another plane (auxiliary plane)
parallel to slanted surface. The plane (auxiliary plane) that is parallel to the slanted
surface is unfolded to show as true shape and size.
Example:
65
Step 1 Step 2 Step 3
Step 4 Step 5
Primary auxiliary views are views that can be represented with their true shape and
size using single auxiliary plane which is drawn parallel to slanted surface of an
object. They are applicable for inclined surface of objects.
Secondary auxiliary views are views that can be represented using two auxiliary
planes. The first auxiliary plane is drawn perpendicular to one of the true length of
66
slanted surface to get edge view; and then the second auxiliary plane is drawn parallel
to the edge view to represent the auxiliary view with its true shape and size. These
views are applicable for oblique surface of objects.
When only the slanted surface of an object is projected and represented on auxiliary
plane, the view obtained is called partial auxiliary view. It is more economical to draw
partial auxiliary views than complete auxiliary views.
Example:
67
5.4. Complete Auxiliary Views
When all the surfaces of an object are projected and represented on auxiliary plane,
the view obtained is called complete auxiliary view. Complete auxiliary views are
drawn when necessary.

Sectional Views
Sectional views show how an object would look if a cutting plane or saw pass through
the object and the part in front of the cutting plane or saw is removed. Sectional views
are used when important hidden details are in the interior of an object. These details
appear as hidden lines in one of the orthographic principal views; therefore,
ther their
shapes are not very well described by pure orthographic projection. Sectional views
facilitate
acilitate the dimensioning.

• The cutting plane line is a thick dark line which uses one of the special patterns
shown below. It is the edge view of the cutting plane.
• The arrows at the ends of the cutting plane line point in the direction of sight for
the sectional view.
ANSI standard
Thin line
JIS & ISO standard
72
• Crosshatching line/Section
line line shows the solid surface of the object which were
cut through to produce the sectional drawings.
• Adjacent areas divided by visible line in a sectional view never both contain the
same crosshatching.
• Crosshatching is never bounded by hidden line.
• Crosshatching should not run parallel or perpendicular to major feature.
• Crosshatching line always drawn at 45o with the horizontal unless there is an
advantage of using a different angles.
• The crosshatching lines should be spaced as uniformly as possible by eye. It
should be uniformly thin (i.e. not varying in thickness).
• Avoid running crosshatching lines beyond the visible line; and avoid stopping the
line too short.

74
6.2.1. Full section
• In a full sectional view, the cutting plane cuts across the entire object.
• Half of the object is removed.
• Interior lines behind cutting plane became visible.
• No hidden lines on the sectional view, if possible.
• Show the cutting plane in the top view or side view; and make a full section in the
front view.
Example:
75
Example:
• Offset sections are used to show interior features that do not lie along a straight
line.
• In offset section plane, the cutting plane is bend to show more features.
• Offset sectional view does not denote location of offset.
• Show the cutting plane in the top view or side view; and make an offset section in
the front view.
Example:

6.2.4. Brocken-out Section
• A broken-out sectional view is created by breaking off part of the object to reveal
interior features.
• Used to section a small portion of an object.
Example:
• A revolved section is created by passing a cutting plane through the cross section
of the object, then revolving the cross section by 90o.
• Revolved section is used to show the cross-sectional shape of a bar, spoke, or arm
in a single view.

6.5. Sections in Pictorial Drawings
• Most of the time full, half and offset sections are drawn in the form of pictorial
drawing.
• In full section pictorial drawing, half part is removed and the rest half part is
drawn as pictorial drawing.
• In half section pictorial drawing, quarter part is removed and the rest 75% part is
drawn as pictorial drawing.
• In offset pictorial drawing, the parts to be removed and drawn depend on the
orientation of the interior details.
82
Exercise
Two views of a model are given in each of the following cases. Replace one of the views
using either Full, Half or Off-set sectional view and show your cutting plan line

Intersection and Development
In this topic the techniques to draw intersection and development of surfaces will be
discussed. Mostly objects made from thin materials (such as sheet metals) are
discussed in this topic.
Right intersections
86
Drawing the line of intersection for symmetrical right intersection of two prisms
Drawing the line of intersection for asymmetrical right intersection of two prisms
87
Drawing the line of intersection for asymmetrical oblique intersection of two prisms
Drawing the line of intersection between two cylinders right angle to each other
88
Line of intersection between two cylinders oblique to each other
89
Line of Intersection between a Cylinder and a Prism
90
Line of Intersection between a Sphere and a Cylinder
Sheet metal objects, cardboard packaging, large diameter cylindrical vessels and
piping, funnels, cans, and ducts are just some of objects made from developments.
The actual developed flat sheet configuration is to cut according to its developed
pattern. Then the final operations include bending, folding or rolling, and stretching
the part to its required design.
The four most common shapes that can be accurately developed include prism,
pyramid, cylinder and cone as shown below:
91
An object is normally developed by unfolding or unrolling its surfaces onto the plane
of the paper. The actual drawing of the object consists of showing each successive
surface as true shape and connected along common edges.
For cone and cylinder bending lines are not required whereas for prism and pyramid
bending lines are required to represent the edges.
92
b) Radial line development: used for objects whose edges or elements define
triangular surface areas: such as pyramids and cones.
93
7.2.2. Development of a Prism
• A prism can be right prism (that makes an angle 90o with the horizontal) or
oblique (that makes an angle different from 90o with the horizontal); can be full
prism or truncated; and can be hollow prism or solid. Only hollow prisms made
from thin materials are considered in development.
• In development of a prism, the length and the height of the developed surface are
the perimeter of the cross-section and the edge heights of a prism respectively.
94
Development of a right prism with top and bottom covers.
95
Development of an oblique prism with top and bottom covers.
96
Development of a truncated right cylinder with no top and bottom covers.
97
Development of an oblique cylinder with no top and bottom covers.
98
7.2.4. Development of a Cone
• A cone can be right cone (that makes an angle 90o with the horizontal) or oblique
(that makes an angle different from 90o with the horizontal); can be full cone,
frustum or truncated; and can be hollow cone or solid. Only hollow cones made
from thin materials are considered in development.
• In development of a cone, the area of the developed surface is the sector made by
the circumference and slanted length of the cone.
99
Development of a truncated right cone with bottom cover and seams.

7.2.7. Development of a Sphere:
A sphere is made up of wrapped surfaces. It is developed by two approximation
method namely, gore method and zone method.
Development of a sphere
by gore method.
Development of a sphere

7.2.8. Development of Combined Objects (intersected objects)
• Development of a combined objects applied the following: A combination of two
prisms, combination of two cylinders, a combination of two cones, a combination
of two pyramids, a combination of a prism and a cylinder, a combination of a
prism and a cone, a combination of a prism and a pyramid, a combination of a
cylinder and a cone, a combination of a cylinder and a pyramid and combination
of a cone and a pyramid.
