I I S T: A Typical Engineering Drawing

The document provides instructions for an engineering graphics exercise on orthographic projections of points and lines. It includes sample problems and reading assignments to practice techniques for drawing projections of various geometric objects using principles of orthographic projection. Students are instructed to complete practice problems manually during drawing sessions using the proper drafting tools and techniques for construction and dimensioning.

A typical engineering drawing

Drafting such a drawing requires knowledge of orthographic projection methods, and also of many
standard symbols used in practice. We start with orthographic projections.

Reading exercise (from Text Book by N D Bhatt):

Drawing instruments and their uses Chapter 1, all sections


Sheet layout and free-hand sketching Chapter 2, sections 2.1 and 2.2
Lines, lettering and dimensioning Chapter 3, all sections
Orthographic projection Chapter 8, all sections
Projections of points Chapter 9, all sections
Projections of lines Chapter 10, all sections

Exercise Problems:

1. The distance between the projectors of A and B is 25 mm. A is 50 mm above HP and 40 mm


in front of the VP. The distance between A and B in FV and TV are 40mm and 60 mm
respectively. Draw the projections and find the distances of B from the reference planes if it
is in IInd quadrant and nearer to HP.

2. Draw the projections of the following points.


L is located 30 mm below HP and 66 mm behind VP; R is 20mm above HP and in VP; D is
30mm behind VP and in the HP; D is lying in both the planes.

3. The distance between the projectors of A and B is 40mm. A is 30mm above HP and 15mm
in front of VP and B is 50mm above HP and 40mm infront of VP. A third point C is at a
distance of 50mm and 30mm from A and B respectively in FV and 35mm from A in TV.
Draw the projections of point C and find the distance from the reference planes if C is in the
II nd quadrant.

4. Draw the projections of a point S situated in a plane passing through the xy-line and inclined
at 300 to H.P. If the distance of the point is:
(a) 50mm from the xy- line in side view, (b) 25mm from H.P., (c) 35mm from V.P.

5. Draw the projections of line AB of length 80mm, inclined at an angle 300 with HP and 450
to the VP. A point M on AB, 30mm from A is at a distance of 35mm above HP and 40 mm
in front of VP.

6. An electric lamp is hung vertically from the centre of the roof of a room 4m x 5m and height
4 m at a height of 3m above the floor. Find graphically the distance between the lamp and
any one of the corners below.

7. Draw the projections of a straight line PQ ,100mm long ,inclined at angle 450 to the ground
(HP) and 300 to the VP, the end P is on the ground and the end Q is in the VP. What is the
height of the point Q above HP?

8. A picture frame 2 m wide and 1 m tall is resting on horizontal wall railing (Fig. A), makes
350 inclination with wall. It is attached to a hook in the wall by two strings. The hook is 1.5
m above wall railing. Determine length of each chain and true angle between them.

9. Two objects, a flower (A) and an orange (B) are within a rectangular compound wall,
(Fig.B) whose P & Q are walls meeting at 900. Flower A is 1.5m & 1m from walls P & Q
respectively. Orange B is 3.5m & 5.5m from walls P & Q respectively. Find graphically
distance between them, if flower is 1.5m and orange is 3.5m above the ground.

Fig. A Fig.B

Use (a) rotation about projector method, and (b) rotation about projection method, to
solve problems 5 to 9.

10. The end projectors of line AB is 60 mm apart. Draw the projections of AB and mark traces
when (a) A is 20 mm above HP and 30 mm in front of VP and B is 70 mm above HP and 60
mm in front of VP, (b) A is 20 mm above HP sand 30 mm in front of VP and B is 70 mm
above HP and 50 mm behind VP, and (c) A is 15 mm behind VP and 60 mm below HP and B
is 70 mm above HP and 30 mm in front of VP (Prob: 8.25 of Anil Kumar)

11. A line PQ measuring 70 mm has its VT 10 mm above HP. The end P is 40 mm above HP
and 50 mm in front of VP. The projectors through its VT and end P are 60 mm apart.
Determine the projections and HT of theline. Also find its inclinations to reference planes.
