Study Notes
Technical Graphics vs Computer-Aided Design (CAD)
- Technical Graphics: Visual representation of an object on paper using drawing tools.
- CAD (Computer-Aided Design): Visual representation of an object using computer software.
- Tools for technical graphics: pencil, set squares, protractor, and compass.
Basic Constructions
- Pencil: Drawing different types of lines, lettering, freehand sketching.
- Set squares: Drawing vertical and inclined lines.
- Protractor: Drawing angles from 0° to 180°.
- Compass: Drawing circles and arcs accurately.
Circle Terminology
- Circumference: The entire distance around a circle.
- Diameter: The distance across a circle passing through the center.
- Radius: The distance from the center of the circle to a point on the circumference.
- Arc: A section or part of the circumference of a circle.
Angle Terminology
- Angle: Formed when two lines intersect at a point.
- Vertex: The point where the lines meet.
- Arms: The two lines making up the angle.
Orthographic Projections
- Orthographic Projection: Representing 3D objects in different 2D views.
- Number of views: Front, Side (right), Plan (top).
Hidden Lines in Orthographic Projections
- Hidden lines are used to show features not immediately visible in the view.
Orthographic Projections of Curved Surfaces
- Orthographic projections of cylinders, cones, and other curved surfaces demonstrate the shape from different viewpoints.
Orthographic Projection of Geometric Solids
- Orthographic projections of geometric solids utilize different views to capture the complete shape.
