Study Notes
Pictorial Drawing
- Pictorial drawing shows more than one side of an object
- Pictorial drawing displays three faces in a single image
- Pictorial drawings include axonometric, oblique, and perspective types
Types of Pictorial Drawings
- Axonometric Projection
- Theoretically orthographic projection
- Single plane used, object rotated to show three faces
- Subdivided into isometric, dimetric, and trimetric types
- Isometric Projection
- "Equal measure"
- Result is less pleasing compared to dimetric or trimetric projections
- Easier to draw and dimension
- Axes are at 30° angles
- Measurements are laid parallel to the axes
- Method of creating an isometric view:
- Draw the three axes: vertical and two 30° axes
- Mark measurements corresponding to the orthographic view
- Connect the points to form a box
- Add the details of the object
- Double-check accuracy
- Trace visible edges with thicker lines
- Add labels
- Dimetric Projection
- Less pleasing than isometric
- Less freedom in orienting the object
- Easier execution compared to trimetric
- Trimetric Projection
- Most pleasing to the eye
- Highest degree of freedom in object orientation
- Hardest to draw
- Oblique Projection
- Projectors at an angle other than 90° with the picture plane
- Perspective Drawing
- Method of projecting a picture onto a picture plane, like photography
- Types:
- One-point perspective
- Two-point perspective
Isometric Drawing Additional details
-
Isometric is derived from "equal" and "measure"
-
Measurements in isometric drawings are equal to orthographic views
-
Three axes are involved:
- Vertical axis
- 30° left cross-axis
- 30° right cross-axis
-
Three positions are used for drawing the axes in an isometric view:
- First position (bottom views)
- Second position (top views)
- Third position
-
Isometric axes are light lines, drawn before visible object lines
-
Measurements are parallel along isometric axes
-
Methods of drawing isometric views:
- "Boxing" or crate lines method
- "Offset" method (for objects with inclined surfaces)
-
Key elements:
- Parallel edges = isometric lines
- Non-parallel edges = non-isometric lines
