 ORTHOGRAPHIC TO ISOMETRIC

• Orthographic drawings are common in engineering.

Visualizing or creating the Isometric View is a critical
engineering skill

 ORTHOGRAPHIC TO ISOMETRIC
• Hints for Isometric Sketching
• Identify major features and overall dimensions
• Use clean, crisp strokes
• Do not use straightedges or scales when sketching
• Start by drawing a bounding box, using construction lines
• Only measure dimensions along the primary axes
• Do not directly transfer angles from a multiview to a pictorial
• Use light construction lines to locate vertices and edges
• Darken all object lines

ORTHO TO ISO

• Set up Isometric Axis using 1

vertical line and 2 lines at 30
degrees from horizontal
• Estimate the overall width height
and depth of the object, and sketch
the edges of a block that would
completely enclose the object
 ORTHO TO ISO

• Sketch the outline of the

front face using lines
parallel and equal in length
to the two previous height
and width edges

 ORTHO TO ISO

• Sketch the outlines of the top and

side faces using the same basic
procedure as used for the front
face
• Begin sketching start/end points
of major features
Monday, January 8, 2018 8
 ORTHO TO ISO

• Begin darkening major features as

they are developed
• Locate start/end points of
additional and smaller features

Monday, January 8, 2018 9

 ORTHO TO ISO

• Locate and sketch start/end points for

non-isometric lines such as the angled
surface
• Sketch and darken the non-isometric
features

 SKETCH FROM AN ACTUAL OBJECT

1. Place the object in the position which its shape

and features are clearly seen.

2. Define an isometric axis.

3. Sketching the enclosing box.

4. Estimate the size an and relationship of each
details.
5. Darken all visible lines.

 SKETCH FROM AN ACTUAL OBJECT

STEPS

1. Positioning object.

2. Select isometric axis.

3. Sketch enclosing box.

4. Add details.

5. Darken visible lines.

 SKETCH FROM AN ACTUAL OBJECT

STEPS
1. Positioning object.
2. Select isometric axis.
3. Sketch enclosing
box.
4. Add details.
5. Darken visible lines.

Note In isometric sketch/drawing), hidden lines are omitted

unless they are absolutely necessary to completely
describe the object.
 SKETCH FROM MULTIVIEW DRAWING

1. Interpret the meaning of lines/areas in

multiview drawing.

2. Locate the lines or surfaces relative to isometric

axis.
