PICTORIAL DRAWING

IVAN T. DOLLESON
INSTRUCTOR 1
A Pictorial drawing is a view of an object
as it would be seen by an observer who
looks at the object either in a chosen
direction or from a selected point of view.
There are many types of pictorial drawings
and these include isometric, oblique,
axonometric and planometrics and the
four drawings illustrate the differences
between them. Of these, isometric
drawings are the most common.

 ISOMETRIC
An Isometric drawing is a pictorial
representation of an object in which all three
dimensions are drawn at full scale.
Isometric drawing is the most
commonly used method of pictorial
drawing. Isometric drawings are built
on three lines, called isometric axes.
One is drawn vertically and the other
two with the 30° set square either side
of it. An Isometric drawing is a way of
presenting designs in three dimensions
(3D). They can be completed using
the 30/60 set square or freehand.
 STEPS
1. DRAW THE 3 AXES “X, Y AND Z”. THE X AND Y AXES
MUST BE IN 30 DEGREE ANGLE
2. PROJECT A VERTICAL LINE FROM THE AXES X AND Z
3. INDICATE THE MEASUREMENTS TO AXES X, Y AND Z
4. ENCLOSED THE ISOMETRIC BOX
5. DRAW THE DETALS OF THE OBJECT BY ANALYZING THE
FIGURE AND DETERMINING THE POINT IN RELATION TO
OTHER POINTS REPRESENTING THE CONERNERS,
SURFACE AND EDGES.
6. CHECK THE ACCURACY OF YOUR DRAWING
7. TRACE THE VISIBLE EDGES WITH HEAVIER LINES

 OBLIQUE
Oblique projection is probably the simplest method of
producing a pictorial drawing because surfaces are
directly in front of the viewer will look very similar to the
front view in an orthogonal drawing. It is a method of
drawing objects in 3 dimensions and may be drawn at
any angle although 45⁰ is generally used.
 CABINET AND CAVALIER PROJECTION

There are two specific forms of Oblique

drawings. These
are Cavalier and Cabinet projection.
The difference between the two is how
the depth of the object is represented.
A cavalier projection is obtained when the angle
between oblique projectors and the plane of
projection is 45⁰ and the rear projections are true
to size. The resulting figure appears too thick and
distorted. A cabinet projection is used to correct
this deficiency.
Cabinet projection is an oblique
projection where the length of the lines
projecting backwards are half.
 STEPS
1. DRAW THE 3 AXES “X, Y AND Z”. THE X AND Y AXES MUST
BE IN 90 DEGREE ANGLE
2. AXES Z MUST PROJECTED IN 45 DEGREE ANGLE
3. PROJECT A VERTICAL LINE FROM THE AXES X, Y AND Z
4. INDICATE THE MEASUREMENTS TO AXES X, Y AND Z
5. ENCLOSED THE OBLIQUE BOX
6. DRAW THE DETALS OF THE OBJECT BY ANALYZING THE
FIGURE AND DETERMINING THE POINT IN RELATION TO
OTHER POINTS REPRESENTING THE CONERNERS,
SURFACE AND EDGES.
7. CHECK THE ACCURACY OF YOUR DRAWING
8. TRACE THE VISIBLE EDGES WITH HEAVIER LINES
