Study Notes

Section View Representation of Rib, Web, Spoke, and Lug

  • Ribs and webs are thin, flat structural features of an object.
  • Spoke is a rod extending from a hub to the rim of a wheel.
  • Lug is an ear-like feature designed for attachment.

Conventional Practice in Section View

  • Rib, Web, and Lug: Omit section lines when the cutting plane passes flatwise through these features.
  • Spoke: Omit section lines when the cutting plane passes lengthwise through.

Aligned Section

  • An aligned section view is created by rotating the object's features about a symmetry axis to show the features in a principal view.
  • This rotation is often used to clarify features that would otherwise appear in an unsymmetrical arrangement in a normal section view.

Conventional Break

  • Conventional breaks are used to shorten long objects in drawings to save space.
  • This involves removing a portion of the object that contains no critical information and drawing break lines at the ends of the removed section.
