Section Views

PURPOSES OF
SECTION VIEWS
Clarify the views by
 reducing or eliminating the hidden lines.
 revealing the cross sectional’s shape.

Facilitate the dimensioning.


CUTTING PLANE
Cutting plane is a plane that imaginarily cuts
the object to reveal the internal features.

CUTTING PLANE LINE
Cutting plane line is an edge view of the cutting
plane.

Indicate the path


of cutting plane.

SECTION LINING
Section lines or cross-hatch lines are used to
indicate the surfaces that are cut by the cutting
plane.

SECTION LINES SYMBOLS
The section lines are different for each of
material’s type.
For practical purpose, the cast iron symbol is
used most often for any materials.

Cast iron, Steel Concrete Sand Wood


Malleable iron
SECTION LINING PRACTICE
The spaces between lines may vary from 1.5 mm
for small sections to 3 mm for large sections.

COMMON MISTAKE
Kinds of Sections
KIND OF SECTIONS
1. Full section
2. Offset section
3. Half section
4. Broken-out section
5. Revolved section (aligned section)
6. Removed section (detailed section)
FULL SECTION VIEW
FULL SECTION VIEW
The view is made by passing the straight cutting
plane completely through the part.
OFFSET SECTION VIEW
The view is made by passing the bended cutting
plane completely through the part.

Do not show the edge views


of the cutting plane.
TREATMENT OF HIDDEN LINES
Hidden lines are normally omitted from section
views.
HALF SECTION VIEW
The view is made by passing the cutting plane halfway
through an object and remove a quarter of it.
HALF SECTION VIEW
A center line is used to separate the sectioned half
from the unsectioned half of the view.
Hidden line is omitted in unsection half of the view.
BROKEN-OUT SECTION VIEW
The view is made by passing the cutting plane normal
to the viewing direction and removing the portion of an
object in front of it.
BROKEN-OUT SECTION VIEW

A break line is used to separate


the sectioned portion from the
unsectioned portion of the view.

Break line is a thin continuous


line (4H) and is drawn freehand.

There is no cutting plane line.


EXAMPLE : Comparison among several section techniques
Dimensioning
in Section View
In most cases, dimensioning of the section views
follows the typical rules of dimensioning.

DIMENSIONING

For a half-section view,


use dimension line with
only one arrowhead that
points to the position inside
the sectioned portion.
