Sheet 14: Detailed designing - orthographic views

Orthographic views are 2d views which can clearly show details such as dimensions.  Usually three or four views are included on one sheet.  There is a specific way to set the sheet out, known as Third Angle projection.  This format of drawing is understood all over the world. There are some points to remember:
  • You can either draw your design in 2D software (such as 2D Design) or export 2D views from 3D software (such as SketchUp)
  • The three or four views included need to be arranged in the agreed format
  • The three or four views should line up with each other
  • Dimensions should be clear (with duplication avoided)
  • Dimensions should not be placed between the views
  • No colour is needed
  • Dotted lines should be used to show hidden detail
  • A text box should be included stating the material to be used for the various components (which should be numbered and named).
