Orthogonal projections and principal views

Image

Usually called the principal views of an object, these are the orthogonal projections of the object onto six planes arranged as faces of a cube. They can also be described as the orthogonal projections of an object according to the different directions from which you view it. The rules that govern the representation of the views of an object are included in UNE 1-032-82, "Technical drawings: General principles of representation," which is equivalent to ISO 128-82.

Image Name of views

How the six views are obtained

If we place an observer according to the six directions indicated by the arrows, we obtain six possible views of an object. Image

Name and common terms for each view

These views have the following denominations:...

Technical Drawing Principles and Projection Systems

Visual arts and art education3.73 KB

Technical Drawing Features

Core Characteristics

  • Graphic: Lines, symbols, and figures replace words to convey information.
  • Universal: It is understood globally, regardless of the language spoken.
  • Accurate: A set of drawings for a project must correspond exactly during assembly.

Spatial Dimensions

Space is categorized as two-dimensional (length x width) or three-dimensional (length x width x height).

Projection Systems and Definitions

  • Project: To draw a line from the center of projection through an object, intersecting the projection surface to produce an image.
  • Projection of a Point: The intersection where the projecting line passes through a specific point.
  • Projecting a Picture: Drawing straight lines starting from a point that pass through all points

Visible Light Spectrum, Color Models and Color Temperature

Visual arts and art education2.57 KB

Visible Spectrum

Visible spectrum is the region of the electromagnetic spectrum that the human eye can perceive. Electromagnetic radiation in this range of wavelengths is called visible light, or simply light. There are no precise boundaries in the visible spectrum. A typical human eye responds to wavelengths from 400 to 700 nm, although some people may perceive wavelengths from 380 to 780 nm. The colors of the visible spectrum and their infinite possibilities of mixing can be represented mathematically.

CIE Chromaticity Triangle

The CIE chromaticity diagram (often shown as a triangle) arranges all colors using three chromaticity coordinates x, y, z, which satisfy x + y + z = 1. This means any color or mixture of colors can be defined from two...

Technical Drawing Systems and Projection Methods

Visual arts and art education2.76 KB

Dihedral System

A representation system using cylindrical projection angles.

Elements

  • Two perpendicular planes of projection: Vertical plane and horizontal plane.
  • Intersection: The line between the vertical and horizontal planes.

Objects can be represented as points, straight lines, or solid plane figures. Their projections are called:

  • Elevation (Front view)
  • Plan (Top view)
  • Profile (Side view)

Dimensioning Standards

Normalization is a set of graphic rules with the objective of facilitating international comprehension of technical drawings. Dimensioning marks the measurements of a piece using lines and numbers.

Bounding Elements

  • Dimension lines
  • Auxiliary or reference lines
  • Dimension numbers

Dimensioning Systems

  • Parallel
  • Series
  • Combined
