Lecture 5 Tuesday, 16 June ENGINEERING GRAPHICS 1E7 Lecture 5: Isometric Projections
Lecture 5 Tuesday, 16 June Isometric Terminology The three coordinate axes are called isometric axes Any line parallel to isometric axes is called isometric line A non-isometric line is a line not parallel to any one of the three isometric axis In isometric projection of cube, the faces of the cube and any plane parallel to them is called isometric planes
Lecture 5 Tuesday, 16 June Notes Objects composed entirely of isometric lines can be drawn by taking all measurements parallel to main edges of the enclosing box. In an isometric drawing, an angle never appears in its true size. Non-isometric lines are drawn by transferring the ordinates (which are on isometric lines) of the end of the lines
Lecture 5 Tuesday, 16 June Objects with Normal Surfaces Make an Isometric Drawing with corner A at the bottom
Lecture 5 Tuesday, 16 June Objects with Normal Surfaces
Lecture 5 Tuesday, 16 June Objects with Oblique Surfaces Make an Isometric Drawing with corner A at the bottom NON-ISOMETRIC LINE
Lecture 5 Tuesday, 16 June Objects with Oblique Surfaces
Lecture 5 Tuesday, 16 June Objects with Non-isometric Lines Make an Isometric Drawing with apex A facing front
Lecture 5 Tuesday, 16 June Objects with Non-isometric Lines Non-isometric lines are drawn with box construction and offset measurements Non-isometric lines are not drawn in true length in isometric drawing (BA is shorter than CA in this drawing)
Lecture 5 Tuesday, 16 June Irregular Objects Make an Isometric Drawing of the following irregular object (pyramid)
Lecture 5 Tuesday, 16 June Irregular Objects OA and OB offsets help to locate apex O Complete box construction may not be needed in each case
Lecture 5 Tuesday, 16 June Notes Axonometric projection shows all 3 dimensions, length, width and height The isometric lines are only drawn to scale. Inclined and oblique surfaces are drawn using end coordinates Angles, irregular curves require special techniques Box construction and offset measurements are common methods
