    Study Notes

    Isometric Drawings

    • An isometric drawing is a simple way to draw a 3D object from an angle, with length and depth lines at 30° from the ground line and height at 90°.
    • Isometric grid paper is used to draw isometric drawings.
    • To draw an isometric cube:
      • Step 1: Write the title block (name and surname) in capital letters on the bottom right corner of the grid paper.
      • Step 2: Determine the starting point on the graph page, usually close to the bottom and center.
      • Step 3: Determine the total dimensions of the object using orthographic or isometric projection, and draw a construction box.
      • Step 4: Lightly draw the shapes of the object on the surface of the box, starting from the side view.
      • Step 5: Darken the outlines of the shapes and add non-isometric lines if needed.

    Orthographic Drawings

    • Orthographic projections can be drawn on graph paper with blocks.
    • There are two types of orthographic projections: First Angle and Third Angle.
    • Downloadable resources:
      • Orthographic graph paper
      • First Angle Orthographic drawing information notes
      • Third Angle Orthographic drawing information notes

    Drawing Conventions

    • Line conventions are used in drawings to represent different components.
    • Examples of line conventions include:
      • Continuous thick lines for visible outlines
      • Continuous thin lines for hidden outlines
      • Dashed lines for centerlines
      • Chain lines for Cutting Plane lines
