Tutorial No. 3 (PROJECTION OF LINES)

Note: (Time: 1 Hour 40 minutes each)
 Tutors to select three to four representative problems to be covered in the
Auto CAD evaluation sessions.
 Tutors to select rest of the problems to be covered in the practice sessions.

1. [The first part is to be discussed by the Tutor ( ~5 minutes)]

Draw the Front view and Top view of the following lines in first quadrant:
 Line AB 40 mm long, parallel to both HP and VP. Point A is 15 mm from VP and 10 mm from HP.
 Line CD 50 mm long parallel to VP and 30o to HP. Point C is 10 mm from VP and 20 mm from HP.
 Line EF 40 mm long parallel to HP and 60o to VP. Point E is 20 mm from VP and 10 mm from HP.
 Line GH 50 mm long, normal to HP. Point G is 10 mm from VP and 20 mm from HP.
 Line JK 40 mm long, normal to VP. Point J is 10 mm from VP and 20 mm from HP.
 Line MN in profile plane. Point M is 10 mm from VP and 15 mm from HP. Point N is 50 mm from
VP and 40 mm from HP.

2. End point A of line AB is 25 mm from HP and 10 mm from VP. End B is 50 mm from HP and 45 mm
from VP. Distance between the end projectors as measured parallel to XY is 60 mm. Draw elevation,
plan and profile view in the first quadrant.

3. [This question is to be discussed by the Tutor ( ~10 minutes)]

Line PQ is 80 mm long. It is normal to VP and 30 mm above HP. One fourth of the line is in the first
quadrant. Draw front and top view of the given line.

4. Line AB has its ends A 10 mm from VP and 20 mm from HP. Point B is 55 mm from VP and 50 mm
from HP. Distance between end projectors is 50 mm. Draw the front view, top view and L.H. side view
of the line assuming the line to be in the third quadrant.

5. Point A of line AB is 25 mm above HP and 20 mm in front of VP. Front view is inclined at 300 to XY
line and measures 65 mm. Point B is in the third quadrant. Plan of the line is 450 to the XY line. Draw
the FV and TV of the line.

6. Midpoint of the projections of the line is in HP and VP. Distance between the projectors is 70 mm. The
line is in two quadrants. FV and TV measure 100 mm and 120 mm respectively. Draw FV and TV of
the line.

7. End point A of line AB is in horizontal plane (HP) and 40 mm from vertical plane (VP). End B is 60
mm from HP and 40 mm from VP. Distance between the end projectors as measured parallel to XY
line is 70 mm. Draw elevation, plan and right hand side profile view in first quadrant.

8. There are two poles with different heights as shown in Figure 1. The different dimensions of the poles
with respect to the vertical and horizontal planes are also given in Figure 1. The poles are perpendicular
to HP and the points P and Q are connected with a wire. The shortest distance of point P from the XY
line is 50 mm. Find (i) distance of point Q from VP. (ii) height of the shorter pole (through P). (iii)
length of elevation/front view of line PQ.

(The poles and the wire may be treated as lines for the projections).
