4. TECH 104 – Technical Graphics Communication Week 2: Sketching, Text, and Visualization Examples of Sketches: Multiview Sketch

5. Sketching used Throughout Design Process:

6. TECH 104 – Technical Graphics Communication Week 2: Sketching, Text, and Visualization Classification of Sketches: Each classification of sketch has a particular purpose from production use…to technical illustration. (ISOmetric, Dimetric & TRImetric) (Orthographic)

7. TECH 104 – Technical Graphics Communication Week 2: Sketching, Text, and Visualization Sketching Grids: A.Orthographic grid B.Isometric grid C. Perspective grid

8. TECH 104 – Technical Graphics Communication Week 2: Sketching, Text, and Visualization Perspective: The line of sight is cone-shaped - which makes objects far away appear smaller to our view. Objects are not “true shape and size”.

9. TECH 104 – Technical Graphics Communication Week 2: Sketching, Text, and Visualization Parallel: The line of sight is always parallel regardless of how far away the object is from our view. This allows surfaces to be drawn “true shape and size”.

10. Multiview Drawings: Only two of the three dimensions (Height, Width & Depth) can be seen in a single view

11. Most Descriptive View:

12. Visualizing a Multiview Drawing:

13. Six Principle Views:

14. TECH 104 – Technical Graphics Communication Week 2: Sketching, Text, and Visualization Extracting “Orthographic” Views of an Object: Ortho means “at 90 degrees”, and is a form of parallel projection. Orthographic projections are used to show several views of the same object in one drawing set.

15. TECH 104 – Technical Graphics Communication Week 2: Sketching, Text, and Visualization Orthographic: The “principle views “ should be chosen to show the most detail of the object with the least number of hidden lines. Here, the TOP, FRONT, and RIGHT SIDE were chosen.

16. TECH 104 – Technical Graphics Communication Week 2: Sketching, Text, and Visualization Understanding what Center Lines do… Center lines show the theoretical perfect center of arcs, holes, and cylinders. They can be used to show symmetry, or used to aid in dimensioning an object. Center lines NEVER start or stop on another line!

17. TECH 104 – Technical Graphics Communication Week 2: Sketching, Text, and Visualization The “Alphabet of Lines”… Lines have both style and precedence. Object (visible) lines are the MOST important…then hidden lines…then center lines…etc.

18. Multiviews of Common Objects:

19. TECH 104 – Technical Graphics Communication Week 2: Sketching, Text, and Visualization Question! How do you know when a sketch or CAD drawing is complete? ANSWER:When the production people can make the part without having to ask you any questions! Most drawings not only have views of the object, but also I include written notes and dimensions to aid in its production.

20. TECH 104 – Technical Graphics Communication Week 2: Sketching, Text, and Visualization Types of Lettering: Simple gothic is used for engineering design. Notice that it is “san serif” (no hats or shoes!)

21. TECH 104 – Technical Graphics Communication Week 2: Sketching, Text, and Visualization Tips on creating a multi-view drawing: 1. Lightly sketch all the information that you know first. 2. Use reverse construction to locate lines that may be unknown such as compound angles. 3. Darken all arcs and circles first. 4. Then darken straight lines.
