Orthographic Projection• Created by projecting the points of a three-

dimensional object onto a two-dimensional plane


Multiview Projection• Orthographic projection consisting of

systematically arranged views to describe anobject


Definition Summary• Orthographic projection, multiview projection, and

multiview drawing are interchangeable terms• Represents the main type of drawing views used

in industrial prints


Selection of Views• Six normal views:

– Front– Back– Top– Bottom– Right side– Left side


• Six normal views:– Front– Back– Top– Bottom– Right side– Left side

Selection of Views• Three “regular” views commonly used in

education:– Front– Top– Right side


• Three “regular” views commonly used ineducation:– Front– Top– Right side

Selection of Views


Dimensions of an Object• Height is how tall the object is, as measured on

the front view• Width is how wide the object is, as measured on

the front view• Depth is how deep the object is from front to back• Each dimension appears twice in the three regular

views• “Length” and “breadth” are terms not used


• Height is how tall the object is, as measured onthe front view

• Width is how wide the object is, as measured onthe front view

• Depth is how deep the object is from front to back• Each dimension appears twice in the three regular

views• “Length” and “breadth” are terms not used

Dimensions of an Object


Three Orientation Possibilities• Perpendicular• Parallel• Inclined


Three Projection Possibilities• Edge view• True size and shape• Foreshortened shape


Three Principal Planes of Projection• Frontal plane• Horizontal plane• Profile plane


Three Types of Flat Surfaces• Normal


Three Types of Flat Surfaces• Inclined


Three Types of Flat Surfaces• Oblique


Cylindrical and Curved Surfaces


Meanings of a Multiview Line• A—Edge view of a flat

or curved surface• B—Intersection of two

surfaces (just an edge)• C—Maximum contour

of a curved surface


• A—Edge view of a flator curved surface

• B—Intersection of twosurfaces (just an edge)

• C—Maximum contourof a curved surface

First-Angle and Third-AngleProjection

• Dividing space into quadrants– Historical development of projection theory used two

planes to divide space– After projections, the two planes are revolved into one,

with quadrants two and four “collapsed”

First-Angle and Third-AngleProjection


Third-Angle Projection• Used in the United States


First-Angle Projection• Used in Europe


• What is the relationship between orthographicprojection and a multiview drawing?

Each view in a multiview drawing is based onorthographic projection


Each view in a multiview drawing is based onorthographic projection

• What are the three basic dimensions of anyobject?

Height, width, and depth


Height, width, and depth

• What are the three regular views on a multiviewdrawing?

Front, top, and right side


Front, top, and right side

• What are the three principal planes of projection?

Frontal, horizontal, and profile


Frontal, horizontal, and profile

• Briefly describe the three visualization principlesfor multiview drawings.

Principle One: A flat surface is orientedperpendicular, parallel, or inclined to a plane ofprojection.

Principle Two: All flat surfaces appear as eithera line, true size and shape, or foreshortened.

Principle Three: All surfaces appear in everyview.

• What are the three types of flat surfaces?

Normal, inclined, and oblique


Normal, inclined, and oblique

• Briefly explain the characteristics of cylindricalsurfaces in multiview drawings.

Cylindrical surfaces are made up of thousandsof elements. If a flat surface is tangent to thecylindrical surface, no line appears at theelement of tangency.

• Explain characteristics of fillets, rounds, andrunouts.

Fillets are interior rounded edges. Rounds areexterior rounded edges. A line may be shownin projection for fillets and rounds if neededfor clarity. Runouts occur when a roundedcorner intersects a curved surface and theedge “tails” out. Runouts are usuallyrepresented in projection.

• What is the difference between third-angle andfirst-angle projection?

In third-angle projection, the object resides inthe third angle of space, resulting in the topview being located above the front view. Infirst-angle projection, the object resides in thefirst angle of space, resulting in the top viewbeing located below the front view.
