Projection and Multi-View Drawing Quiz for Engineering Students

Orthographic projection is a technique used in technical drawing where projectors are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the plane. Ortho means perpendicular, and graphics means right angle drawing. Different views of an object are projected on different reference planes observing perpendicular to respective reference plane, with the main reference planes being Horizontal Plane (HP), Vertical Plane (VP), and Side or Profile Plane (PP).

The different views and notations used in orthographic projection include Front View (FV) projected on VP, Top View (TV) projected on HP, and Side View (SV) projected on PP.

The two projection systems mentioned are the first angle system used in European countries as per ISO standard, and the third angle system used in Canada, USA, Japan, and Thailand.

<p>The plane of projection is the plane used for the purpose of projection in orthographic projection. It is where different views of an object are projected, and its orientation determines the type of projection system used.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>The term 'orthographic' in orthographic projection signifies that the projectors are perpendicular to the plane and parallel to each other, resulting in right angle drawing and projection of different views of an object on different reference planes.</p> Signup and view all the answers
