Questions and Answers

A pentagonal prism resting on its base on the Horizontal Plane (HP) with one base side perpendicular to the Vertical Plane (VP) is cut by a section plane inclined at 45 degrees to the HP. How does this affect the visibility of the prism's edges in the top view?

  • The entire prism disappears from the top view.
  • Some edges are shortened or truncated in the top view due to the section plane. (correct)
  • The top view shows a distorted, elongated version of the prism.
  • All edges remain fully visible, with no change in appearance.

In the development of a sectioned pentagonal prism, what is the primary purpose of marking cut points on the respective edges?

  • To differentiate between the prism's internal and external surfaces.
  • To align the development with the prism's original color scheme.
  • To accurately represent the shape and size of the opening created by the section plane. (correct)
  • To indicate the areas where the prism's surface is reflective.

When drawing the true shape of a sectioned solid, why is it important to project cut points onto a plane parallel to the section plane?

  • To distort the shape, allowing for artistic interpretation.
  • To emphasize the thickness of the sectioned material.
  • To simplify the drawing process by using a standard projection angle.
  • To obtain an accurate representation of the section's actual dimensions and shape, without distortion. (correct)

Section Plane of a Pentagonal Prism

A pentagonal prism is cut by a plane at 45 degrees to the Horizontal Plane (HP), through midpoint of its axis.

Steps for Sectional Views

Drawing three views of the prism, locating the section plane in the Front View (Fv) as described, projecting points, joining points in sequence, and adding section lines.

Edges Cut Projection

Projecting where edges are cut on Top View (Tv) and Side View (Sv).

Creating the True Shape

Drawing a line parallel to the section plane (x₁y₁), projecting cut points, marking distances, and joining in sequence.

Study Notes

  • Problem statement: a pentagonal prism with a 30 mm base side and 50 mm axis stands on the Horizontal Plane (Hp) on its base, with one side of the base perpendicular to the Vertical Plane (VP).
  • The solid is cut by a section plane inclined at 45° to the HP, passing through the midpoint of the axis.
  • Required drawings: Front View (Fv), sectional Top View (sec. Tv), sectional Side View, true shape of the section, and the development of the surface of the remaining solid.

Solution Steps for Sectional Views

  • Draw the three views (Top View, Front View, Side View) of the standing prism.
  • Locate the section plane in the Front View as described (inclined at 45° to HP through the midpoint of the axis).
  • Project the points where the edges are cut in the Top View and Side View as shown.
  • Join these points in sequence to show the section.
  • Show section lines within the cut surface.
  • Make the lines representing the remaining part of the solid dark.

True Shape of Section

  • Draw a line x₁y₁ parallel to the section plane.
  • Draw projectors perpendicular to x₁y₁ from each cut point on the section plane.
  • Mark the distances of the sectioned part's points from the Top View onto the corresponding projectors from x₁y₁. These distances originate from the original XY line in the Top View.
  • Join the marked points in sequence.
  • Draw section lines within the resulting shape.
  • The resulting view represents the true shape of the section.

Development

  • Draw the development of the entire solid.
  • Name the cut-open edge A and continue in sequence as shown.
  • Mark the cut points on their respective edges within the development.
  • Join these points sequentially using straight lines.
  • Make the lines representing the existing/remaining parts of the development darker.
