8.1 INTRODUCTION A point is defined as a geometrical element that has no dimension. In engineering drawing, a point is rep- resented by a dot. This chapter deals with the projections of points. 8.2. LOCATION OF A POINT ‘The orthographic projections are obtained on two principal planes (also known as reference planes) having -gligible thickness, namely vertical plane (VP. and horizontal plane (H.P) as shown, 7.4(a) and (b). The principal planes are perpendicular to each other and divide the space into four quadrants. A point lying in the space can be defined in one of the following positions with respect to the principal planes. Above the HLP. and in front of the V.P. Above the HLP. and behind the V. Below the H.P. and behind the V.P. Below the HP. and in front of the VP. On the H.P. and in front of the VP. Above the H.P. and on the V.P. On the H.P. and behind the V.P. Below the H.P. and on the V.P. On both the H.P. and the V.P. Sera eee 8.4. POINT ABOVE THE H.P.
