LESSON 4 – ORTHOGRAPHIC DRAWING &
ISOMETRIC DRAWING
 ORTHOGRAPHIC DRAWING
• A drawing that shows the principal views of an object. There are six views in
an object; top view, front view, bottom view, back view, left side view
and right side view. In orthographic drawing only three views are necessary
to project; these are the top view, front view and side view.
 PRINCIPLES OF ORTHOGRAPHIC
PROJECTION
• The top view is directly drawn above the front view
• The side view is drawn horizontally in line with the front view.
• A line parallel to a plane of projection will show its true length on that plane.
 ISOMETRIC DRAWING
• Is a drawing wherein the object is represented by three sides seen at one
time. It is made with 30x60 degrees triangle. It is also a three dimensional
drawing because height, width, and depth are all drawn in a single plane.
 PRINCIPAL DIMENSIONS
• WIDHT – is the measurement of an object taken from side to side of an
object
• HEIGHT – is the measurement taken from top to bottom of an object.
• DEPTH – is the measurement from front to rear of an object.
 DRAWING SCALE
• The scale is the ratio between the size represented on the drawing and the
true size of the object.
• Scale= Dimension to carry on the drawing ÷ True Dimension of the object
DRAWING SCALE
 PLATE NO. 4
Create orthographic drawing of the following objects. Choose scale which will fit the object on
your drawing paper. Upload output on google classroom. Drawing template will be the same as
used in letterings.
Note: Two objects on one drawing paper. Center your plot. Dimensions of objects (cm)
 PLATE NO. 5
Create isometric drawing of the following objects. Choose scale which will fit the object on
your drawing paper. Upload output on google classroom. Drawing template will be the same as
used in letterings.
Note : All objects will be on one drawing paper. Center your plot. Dimensions of objects (cm)
