    Projection of Lines

    Uploaded by

    Varun Shastry
    This document discusses the projection of straight lines in engineering drawings. It describes the different orientations a straight line can have with respect to the planes of projection: parallel to both, perpendicular to one and parallel to the other, or inclined to both planes. It defines the trace of a line as the point of intersection with a plane of projection. Examples are given of lines with different orientations and their resulting traces. The document also discusses obtaining the true length and inclination of a line through projections and obtaining top, front, and side views through three-view projections. It provides three example problems to draw the projections of lines with given orientations, lengths, and positions.

    PROJECTION OF STRAIGHT LINES

    INTRODUCTION : A straight line is generated by a point moving in one direction.


    In other words, straight line is the shortest distance between two points.
    A straight line may be located in two ways by specifying its end
    points or by specifying a point and the direction of straight line.

    TWO VIEW PROJECTIONS OF


    STRAIGHT LINES : Parallel to both the planes
    Perpendicular to one plane
    Inclined to one plane and parallel to other.
    Inclined to both the planes
    Contained by a plane, perpendicular to both the principal planes

    Projections of line parallel to one and inclined to other plane :-

    TRACE OF A LINE : The point of intersection between a given line or its extension and
    plane of projection is called Trace
    When line/its extension meets H.P ----- Horizontal Trace (H.T)
    When line/its extension meets V.P ----- Vertical Trace (V.T)

    Few examples :-

    In this case, line is


    parallel to both HP
    and VP. Hence, no
    traces

    In this case, line is


    parallel to HP and
    perpendicular to VP.
    Hence we have VT.

    TRUE LENGTH AND TRUE INCLINATION :-

    When a line is parallel to a plane, its projection on the plane will show
    its true length and the true inclination with the other plane.

    THREE VIEW PROJECTIONS OF


    STRAIGHT LINE : Projections of a straight line on two principal planes of projections viz.
    HP and VP result in top and front views respectively.
    The line may also be projected onto the profile plane (P.P). In first
    angle projection, if the left profile is considered, the view obtained is
    known as right side view.
    And left side view may also be obtained by projecting a line onto a
    right profile plane.

    Classwork to do :1. A line of length AB = 50 is parallel to both HP and VP. Line is 40


    above HP and 30 in front of VP. Draw the projections of line.
    2. A line AB is 30 long and inclined at 300 to HP, and parallel to VP. The
    end A of the line is 15 above HP and 20 in front of VP. Draw the
    projections of the line
    3. A line AB is of 100 length is inclined at an angle of 300 to HP and 450
    to VP. The point A is 15 above HP and 20 in front of VP, and 120
    from right profile plane. Draw front, top and left side view of line AB.
