Section Views
Clearly show interior features Avoid confusing hidden lines
Cutting Planes Cutting planes define section views Lines of sight are perpendicular to the cutting plane Section views are parallel to cutting plane and perpendicular to lines of sight Objects shown in true size Cut surface is cross- hatched
Cutting Plane Lines Show where cutting plane passes through object Represent edge view of cutting plane Appear in views adjacent to section view

Sketch Section View
Solution
Cross Hatching (Section Lines) General symbol (cast iron) used for most purposes and for sketching Section lines are normally drawn at 45° from the horizontal but can be changed for adjacent parts in the same section Normally section lines are not shown on thin parts Components like bolts are usually not sectioned
A)Cast Iron/ B) Sound C) Thermal General Insulation Insulation D) Water E) Steel F) Titanium/ Refractory Material G) Concrete H) Wood (across/along grain)
Auxiliary Views
What is an Auxiliary view? It is an extra view of an object It is used when the 6 principal views don’t describe an object (or some of its features) clearly or completely - in particular inclined features It is used to show the true lengths of lines It is used to show the true size of planes
Why use an Auxiliary View? None of these views shows the angled face in true size and shape.
An extra view is needed.
Constructing an auxiliary view view It is an orthographic projection Lines of sight are perpendicular to the plane of the feature (or object) The projection plane is perpendicular to the lines of sight and parallel to the plane of the feature
Auxiliary Views
- Dimension on true size and shape views only - Use Auxiliary views if necessary NO YES
Dimensioning
Multi-view Drawing Specify: Size of features Location of features Details and notes
Dimensioning Dimensioning is necessary to specify: Size of features Location of features Details and notes for construction or manufacture Dimensioning is important in the communication of the design, from the designer to the manufacturer/contractor to the quality control inspection
Dimensioned Multi-View Drawing Units must be stated Typically inches or millimeters Mixed dimensions sometimes used
Terminology and Standards Leave gap Note arrow direction Limits indicate tolerance
Terminology and Standards Use diameter for circles, radius for arcs Show extra dimensions as reference only Plus/minus indicates tolerance
Good Dimensioning Practices
Show all necessary views Bottom view shows important features Make sure center lines are shown in all views!
Make sure views are aligned NO YES
Don’t dimension hidden lines NO YES Dimension visible lines if possible
Dimension to centrelines of cylindrical features and holes NO YES Remember to show centrelines!
Dimension the most descriptive view
Don’t over or under- dimension Show necessary dimensions exactly once All dimensions can be derived from given dimensions Don’t show the same dimensions different ways
Don’t over-dimension NO YES
Don’t crowd dimensions NO YES
Extension lines should not cross dimension lines NO YES
- Dimension on true size and shape views only - Use Auxiliary views if necessary NOYES
