SHAPE DESCRIPTION OR MULTIVIEW PROJECTION

Multi-view drawings
• Multi-view drawings are used to provide accurate
three-dimensional object information on two
dimensional media
• Multi-view drawings usually require several
orthographic projections to define the shape of a
three-dimensional object
• The arrangement and relationship between the
views are therefore very important in multiview
drawings.
• the concepts and principles of projections.
Basic Principle of Projection

elements that are common to the principles of


projection
• Point of Sight or station point
• Plane of Projection (Or Image Plane)
Orthographic Projection
• The lines connecting from the Point of Sight to the 3D
object are called the Projection Lines or Lines of Sight.
• Note that in the above figure, the projection lines are
connected at the point of sight, and the projected 2D
image is smaller than the actual size of the 3Dobject.
• Now, if the projection lines are parallel to each other
and the image plane is also perpendicular to the
projection lines, the result is what is known as an
orthographic projection.
• When the projection lines are parallel to each other, an
accurate outline of the visible face of the object is
obtained.
Cont.
• In Engineering Graphics, the projection of one
face of an object usually will not provide an
overall description of the object
• other planes of projection must be used
• To create 2D views, the point of sight is
changed to project different views of the same
object
Principal Views(Each with its point of sight)
Multiview Orthographic Projection
• In creating multiview orthographic projection,
different systems of projection can be used to
create the necessary views to fully describe the
3D object
• two perpendicular planes are established to form
the image planes for a multiview orthographic
projection
• The angles formed between the horizontal and
the vertical planes are called the first, second,
third, and fourth angles
