Engineering Graphics: Unit III (b): Projections of Solids

Projections of Solids

Engineering Graphics (EG)

In orthographic projections so far the projections of points, lines and plane surfaces (two dimensional figures) were presented.

Chapter - 14

Projections of Solids

At the end of this chapter we will be able to:

1. Understand the geometric properties of different types of solids.

2. Draw the projections of simple solids in simple position as

i) Perpendicular to HP & Parallel to VP.

ii) Perpendicular to VP & Parallel to HP.

iii) Perpendicular to PP & Parallel to both HP and VP.

3. Draw the projections of simple solids, Inclined to one plane and parallel to the other plane as

i) Parallel to HP & Inclined to VP.

ii) Parallel to VP & Inclined to HP.

4. Draw the projections of simple solids, inclined to both the planes.


INTRODUCTION

In orthographic projections so far the projections of points, lines and plane surfaces (two dimensional figures) were presented. In this chapter projections of solids is presented. Projection of a solid figure is always a plane figure having true (or) reduced shape and size depending upon the position of solids.
