What to Focus On

  • Objects in real life are three-dimensional but must be represented on two-dimensional paper
  • Pictorial drawings help communicate object structure effectively
  • Three main types: Perspective, Oblique, and Axonometric projections
  • Isometric: All three angles equal (120°), single scale for all axes
  • Dimetric: Two angles equal, over 90°, requires two different scales
  • Trimetric: All angles unequal, not less than 90°, requires three different scales
  • Isometric scale compensates for foreshortening in projection
  • Construction involves 45° and 30° angles with horizontal
  • True lengths are converted to isometric lengths

Common Mistakes to Avoid

All dimensions in isometric projection should be drawn to true length

The three isometric axes are at 60° to each other

Circles in isometric projection remain circles
