Chapter 08 Orthographic Reading

Chapter 8 covers orthographic reading, which involves interpreting the shape of an object through its orthographic views. It details the steps for analyzing objects by solids and surfaces, including how to orient oneself with views, read individual surfaces, and mentally create object shapes. The chapter also includes examples and guidance on recognizing similar shapes and handling missing view problems.

READING STEPS
1. Orient yourself with the views given.
(Choose the viewing direction.)

2. Read the individual surfaces that appeared in


each view and related to each other.

3. Create a proper solid geometric primitive from


each reading.

4. Assembly all of solid geometric primitive


according to orthographic views.

Gec 117-Kilanko
READING STEPS
1. Orient yourself with the views given.

2. Read the individual set of lines or surface that


appeared in each view and related to each
other.

An understanding in orthographic projection,


i.e. meaning of lines and surfaces are
almost important.

READING STEPS
3. Mentally create and sketch a form of the surface
that produce the same orthographic views as
those at the beginning.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until all surfaces are read.

During this repeating process, the details of


an object are added up until its completed
shape is obtained.
