Sectioning

A short series of lectures on Engineering Drawing as Part of ENGG1960:


Introduction to Biomedical Engineering By Paul Briozzo
Sectioning

• Features that cannot be seen by hidden detail


• Cutting plane removes part section is what is left
• Cross hatching is at 45o equispaced
• Centrelines often used for cutting planes
• Very thin sections not hatched e.g. gaskets, seals
• Do not show hidden detail in sectional view (except for special features)
• Webs, Shafts, bolts and pins are usually NOT sectioned even if they are in
the cutting plane
Rules to Remember When
Sectioning
• A sectional view shows the part of the component in front of the cutting
plane arrows. In third-angle projection the sectional view is placed on
the side behind the sectioning viewing plane.

• Material which has been cut by the cutting plane is hatched. Standard
exceptions are noted previously.

• A sectional view must not have any full lines drawn over hatched areas.

• As a general rule, dimensions are NOT inserted in hatched areas.
