Q

Describe how first-angle projection differs from third-angle projection.

A
  • first-angle
    — viewing position > object > side elevation
  • third-angle
    — viewing position > side elevation > object

Q

Which view is chosen to be the front view for a technical drawing?

A
  • most objects do not have a natural front or side position.
  • therefore, it is necessary to determine which side of the object provides the most information about its shape
  • this side is used as the front view

Q

What are the merits and limitations of pictorial drawings?

A

Merits

  • 3D renderings of an object showing height, length and width
  • help viewer to visualize the true shape of an object

Limitations
- do not describe the shape of an object either exactly or completely

Q

Describe how isometric and oblique drawings are drawn.

A

Isometric

  • all lines are drawn either vertically or at 30 degrees to the horizontal
  • the lengths along the 30 degrees axes are drawn to full scale

Oblique

  • on face is at right angle to the horizontal and the others are at an angle (usually 45 degrees) to the horizontal
  • the receding dimensions along the 45 degrees axis are drawn to half scale

Q

Draw and describe

- extension and dimension lines

A
  • Extension lines
    — thin lines which extend the object lines out to a convenient space for dimensioning
    — these lines do not touch the object lines
    — if extension lines cross arrowheads or dimension lines, a break in the extension line is permitted
  • Dimension lines
    — thin lines which indicate the distance between the extension lines. They terminate with arrowheads which touch the extension lines.
    — these lines give the objects measured dimensions; height, width and length
    — where one or more dimension lines share an extension line, the dimension lines should run parallel to each other

Q

What are the two methods used to dimension objects?

A

Q

Q

State the rules for dimensioning technical drawings

A
  • only one form of dimension is used on a single drawing; either aligned or unidirectional
  • technical drawings are dimensioned so that the full-size dimensions are specified on he drawing regardless of scale
  • in metric drawings, dimensions are shown in millimetres without their units (1100, not 1100mm)
  • the position and size of angles are shown
  • when metric values are less than one, a zero is shown before the decimal point (0.5, not .5)
  • whenever possible, to avoid confusion, dimensions are placed close to features being shown and outside the objects outline
  • dimensions of a feature are shown only once
  • when space is limited, dimension figures are placed in one or the other way
    — inside the dimension line with the arrowheads outside the extension lines
    — with the figures and arrowheads outside the extension lines

Q

What are the purposes of sectional view?

A
  • used to show an aspect of the object which is otherwise too complicated to show with the conventional top, front, and side views
  • show differences in materials

Q

Describe the difference between full-section and half-section views.

A

Full section - use a cutting plane through the whole object giving the impression that the object has been cut in half

Half section - remove only a certain portion of the drawing. If a half section views gives all the information needed to understand the drawing, hen a full section drawing is not given

35
Q

What are the reasons for using auxiliary views?

Figure 23

A

36
Q

Which of the regular views is the front view in figure 23?

-

37
Q

Why would and object have two or more auxiliary views?

A
  • occasionally an object cannot be completely described in one auxiliary view, so an additional auxiliary view may be needed

Q

What are the merits of the exploded view in figure 24?
