Multiview Drawing

Multiview Drawing

Given an angled 30 view of a figure, you will
determine the top, front and side view
Measurements are taken from the angled
view (parallel to the axis)
Shows hidden lines of the figure
Examples
 Orientation of the Planes
Planes can be seen in either 1, 2 or 3 views of
the top, front and side view.
Normal Orientation The plane can only be
seen in 1 view. The plane is EV in the other
views. TS is shown in this view.
Inclined visible in 2 views. EV in the other
view.
Oblique visible in the 3 views
 Method
1. Enclose the figure in the smallest glass box,
using the graduation needed.
2. Determine the orientation of the planes
(Normal, Inclined, Oblique)
3. Connect the points of the figure to create the
top, front and side views. The planes will
enclose the figure.
4. Ensure that all hidden lines are shown in the
top, front and side views.

Reverse of Multiview Drawing
Given the top and front and side view, you will

show the angled 30 drawing of the figure
Measurements are taken from the top front
and side view. (Those parallel to the axis)
Does not show hidden lines

 Method
Draw the glass box according to the
measurements of the front and side view.
Assume the orientation of the planes.
(Normal, Inclined, Oblique)
Connect the points in the glassbox
accordingly. This will show the figure.
Check if the figure corresponds to the top,
front, and side view. Also check if there are
floating planes, lines and points.
