Three Dimensional (3D)

Having the dimensions of height, width, and depth.

Thumbnail Sketch

A preliminary visual of a possible idea for a design. Most thumbnail sketches are not fuji-size and havelittle detail. They are intended to quickly explore possible alternative designs.

Two Dimensional (2D)

Having the dimensions of height and width, height and depth, or width and depth only.

Two-Point Perspective

A realistic way of drawing objects in three dimensions using a horizon line, a key edge, and twovanishing points.

Vanishing Point

A point in space, usually located on the horizon, where parallel edges of an object appear to converge.

Views

Views is shorthand for multiview projection, which is a system used to view an object. The six mutuallyperpendicular directions any object may be viewed are top, front, right-side, rear, left-side, and bottom.Top, front, and right-side views are also referred to as the three regular views because they are thethree views most frequently used.

Visualize

To imagine the visual form of an object or situation that one cannot see.

Width

The measurement or extent of something from side to side.

Activity 1.4.1 Sketching TechniquesIntroduction

There are many different kinds of languages. You know English. You may haveheard people speak other languages, such as Spanish, French, Korean or Italian.There is another language used to communicate that is not orally spoken. Signlanguage uses gestures and hand symbols.

When you use symbols or formulas in mathematics or science class, you are usingstill another form of communication. These symbols and formulas describe,generalize and communicate technological ideas.

Lines of varying style and thickness are used in specific ways to develop andcommunicate graphic messages about an object’s geometry. Imagine if all the lineshad the same style, thickness, weight, and consistency. Understanding line typesand when to use them will help your sketches look cleaner and more professional.

Equipment• GTT notebook• Pencil• Eraser

Activity 1.4.2 Sketching Practice

IntroductionPictorial drawings show the shape of an object viewed by the human eye. Pictorialsketches are sketches that show height, width, and depth all in one view. Commontypes of pictorial drawings are isometric and perspective.

An isometric sketch shows an object in which the width and depth are projected at30 degree angles from the horizontal axis. The height, width, and depth values areall at the same scale. A technique that you can use when making an isometricsketch is to use isometric grid paper. This helps with determining the correct anglefor your sketch.

Perspective is a way to draw that shows a view of the object in the most realisticway. Vanishing points are used to guide the lines in the object to the horizon line orthe horizontal line that you see at your line of sight. In a one-point perspective, alllines in the depth project to one point (the vanishing point). For example, when youlook down a long, straight train track, it appears that the track eventually narrowsuntil it vanishes. In a two-point perspective, the width lines converge on onevanishing point, and the depth lines converge on the other vanishing point. Think ofstanding at the corner of a city block; the buildings vanish in both directions.

Pictorial sketches help engineers explain ideas and communicate to the customerwhat the final part will look like. Unfortunately, pictorial drawings have somedisadvantages. Foreshortened views and distorted features do not allow for accurateprototyping. In order for parts to be accurately depicted, you typically need viewsthat directly portray each surface. In order to obtain these straight line views, wehave a type of drawing called orthographic projection, also known as multiviewdrawing. Orthographic projection is a way to project a view based on a line of sightthat is perpendicular to that view. Orthographic drawings are said to show true sizeand shape.

Look at your GTT notebook. How many sides does it have? That’s right, six. The topand bottom are similar, the right and left are similar, and the front and back aresimilar. In orthographic projection we typically draw only 3 views: the front, top, andright side. We use hidden lines to represent features that are on the surfaces thatare not visible in the view we are sketching.

Let’s practice some sketching. Remember the more you practice, the better you willbecome. Always sketch with a pencil and make sure that you have a good erasernearby.

ProcedureIn this activity you will create a portfolio of sketches and drawings that will enableyou to learn and understand the terminology and different methods of sketching.These skills will allow you to better communicate your ideas. Follow along as yourteacher discusses the Sketching Practice presentation.

1. Describe a pictorial sketch.

2. Practice pictorial sketching with the two objects that your teacher provides.Remember to use a pencil and sketch lightly. Darken your final image.

3. Create an isometric sketch of a cube using the isometric graph paper below. Payclose attention to which lines are vertical and which lines are parallel. Label thesketch.

4. Follow the steps below to create an isometric sketch using the additive andsubtractive method to create a 3D picture.

Start with theIsometric axis.

Add vertical lines fromthe corners so thatyour isometric axisnow looks like this.Tryto keep your linesparallel to the centerline.Add lines for widthparallel to the widthaxis.

Finish the cube withlines for depth that areparallel to the lines forthe depth axis.

To add a shape usingthe Additive Method,cut away the back

Add three lines to thecut away that areparallel to the heightaxis. The lengthshould be not morethan % inch.Finish off the additionof the new shape bycompleting the widthand height of the topof the new shape.Remember to keepthe lines parallel withthe respective axis.

To remove a shapefrom an object usingthe SubtractiveMethod, draw twovertical lines and aline parallel to boththe width and depthaxis as shown on thedrawing below.

Add lines on the topsurface to completethe area that will beremoved. Be carefulto keep your linesparallel and the samelength.

Activity 1.43 Language of Sketching

IntroductionAn important skill that you should learn while taking Design and Modeling is the skill ofsketching. This language is quick, easy, and “worth a thousand words.” I know some ofyou say, “My drawings look awfull” If you stay with some of the techniques shown, all ofyou will be successful in quickly and effectively placing your ideas down on a sheet ofpaper for all to understand.

Thumbnail Sketch: This is a quick way to get an idea onto a sheet of paper. A sketchis usually small but drawn in proportion. The relationship of height to width should beshown in the thumbnail sketch. It is recommended that you use the pencil very lightlyand darken when the drawing is in its final stage. A thumbnail sketch must be asdetailed as necessary to convey your idea.

Perspective Drawing: Perspective drawings are pictorial representations of objectsbecause they look like a photograph, Perspective drawings appear as the eye sees theobject. Geometrically, an ordinary photograph is a perspective. While perspective is ofmajor importance to the architect, industrial designer, or illustrator, the engineer at onetime or another is certain to be concerned with pictorial representations of objects.

One-point Perspective: In a one- point perspective, an object is situated with one faceparallel to the plane of projection; only one vanishing point is required.

‘Vanishing Point

Two-point Perspective: In this type of perspective drawing, the object is situated at anangle with the picture plane but with vertical edges parallel to the picture plane. Twovanishing points are required due to the turning of the object from the picture plane;the result is a two- point perspective. This is the most common type of perspectivedrawing.

Orthographic Drawing (commonly referred to as multi-view drawing): Aphotograph or a perspective drawing shows an object as it appears to the observer,but not as it truly is. Such a picture cannot describe the object fully, no matter fromwhich direction it is viewed. It is said that a perspective drawing doesn’t show TS&S(i.e., true size and shape). What is needed in industry is a complete and accuratedescription of the shape and size of an object that in the end will be made by the

manufacturer. In order to provide information clearly and accurately, a number ofviews must be systematically arranged so that anyone in the world can understand.Using Universal Language Drawing practices with many views to describe an objectaccurately and clearly is called Multi-view Drawing or Orthographic Drawing.

l)

You will learn to look at objects in Design and ModelingTM in a way that normalhumans” do not. When you look at an object as a human, you see three differentdimensions (width, height, depth) all at once (like a perspective drawing). In anorthographic drawing, you will look at the object in three different ways. You will look atthe front view and observe two dimensions — height and width; the top view shows widthand depth; and, finally, the right side view shows height and depth. You must also keepin mind that this is a Universal Language; therefore, the positioning of the views isstandard. The front view is placed in the lower left, the top view is placed directly abovethe front view, and the right side view is placed to the right of the front view.

Isometric Drawing: Orthographic Drawing:

Top View

Front View RI Side View

Isometric Drawing: An isometric drawing is often used for quick sketching to explainan idea quickly. It does not show how we actually see an object. The objects aredrawn at an angle so that you can see three sides at once. All parallel lines aredrawn in parallel, with no vanishing points, so that lengths do not diminish in thedistance. Diagonal lines representing horizontal edges are drawn 30 from ahorizontal base line.

Activity 1.4.4 Orthographic ProjectionIntroduction

Did you know that when an invention is sent to the patent office, the patent officemust verify that your invention is truly new and unique from other products? In orderto do this, the patent office requires explanatory drawings with your application. Asimple invention may only require one drawing. More complicated objects orproducts require orthographic drawings (commonly referred to as multi-viewdrawings) so that every feature of the invention listed is shown. This is to enableanyone with the appropriate skills to be able to build your invention and test it.

Whether you plan to invent something or whether you are just interested in learninghow to make something, a drawing helps you figure out the different parts and howthose parts go together. Orthographic drawings enable the reader of the drawings tounderstand how each part fits and how the final product should look from all views.

Orthographic projection is used to show an object in true size or scale on a flat pieceof paper. When we look at an object, we see three dimensions (height, width, depth)all at once. In an orthographic drawing, you will be looking at the object from threedifferent planes. When you look at the front, only two dimensions — height and width— appear. From the top, the two dimensions are width and depth, and from the rightside, the height and depth are the dimensions.

Orthographic Projection Activity 2:In this part of the activity, you will draw the same block four ways. In each drawingthe block is turned to a different position.

1. Use colored pencils to color the top view of each block red, the front view of eachblock green, and the right side view of each block blue.

2. In each position shown, draw the top, front, and right side views of the block,making sure that the front view is in the bottom left quadrant of the graph paper,the top view is directly above the front view, and the side view is directly to theright.

3. The dimensions of the block are given in Figure 1 and are to be used for all ofthe drawings of the block.

4. Each small square represents one inch.

5. Notice that the placement of the block in a drawing may fit in the drawing spacebetter than in other views. You will also notice that each drawing may have adifferent number of hidden lines. Hidden lines are dashed lines used to representan edge that cannot be seen from a particular view.

Conclusion1. Orthographic drawings are used to express ideas that are more complicated.

Explain the purpose of the different views and the importance of view alignment.

2. How can you check an orthographic drawing to be sure there are no missinglines?

3. How is an orthographic drawing similar to or different from an isometric drawing?

Activity 1.4.5 DimensioningIntroduction

Dimensions are as important as the shapes that you sketch. In order to accuratelyreproduce a part, the manufacturer must know the proper size and the properlocation for all features. This includes the overall height, width, and depth of anobject, as well as the size and location of all other features.

There are dozens of rules and guidelines associated with dimensioning. You willlearn how to apply just eight of these in order to make your sketches easy foranyone to understand.

Equipment• GTT notebook• Pencil• Eraser• Straight edge

ProcedureIn this activity you will begin by following along as your teacher presents informationon dimensioning. Then you will apply your knowledge of dimensioning to identifymissing dimensions on orthographic drawings. Last, you will practice sketching anddimensioning in orthographic from an isometric sketch. Make sure to follow thedimensioning guidelines.

1. Why is it necessary to dimension a sketch?

2. What dimensions are needed to fully describe a sketch?

3. When using ¼ in. graph paper, each square equals ¼ in. or .25 in. How manysquares are in:

o 1 in. =

__________

squares

o 2 in. =

_________

o 23,4in.=

______

o 1 1/4in.

o Rule 7:

o Rule 8:

8. You will create orthographic drawings of objects and dimension them from theisometric sketches in both drawings below. Make sure you place the front view inthe lower left corner, the top view directly above the front view in the upper leftcorner, and the right side view to the right of the front view in the lower rightcorner. Line up your sketches both horizontally and vertically. Add all of thedimensions necessary using the scale 1 square = % in. Your dimension linesshould have arrows at the end, and extension lines should not touch the objectline.
