NOTE

 DRAWING PRACTICES (PICTORIAL DRAWING) –ISOMETRIC DRAWING

Isometric drawing is a 3D representation of an object where all three dimensions are shown at the same scale. Drawing an isometric sketch is created using three axes. One axis is vertical, and the other two are connected horizontally to the vertical axis. The horizontal axes are created using 30-degree angles.

 

Procedure for the construction of of isometric Projection

  1. Draw with set squares, place the set square and makes sure that both the face and the side are inclined at 30⁰ to the horizontal plane.
  2. Draw the isometric box that contains the object first. The box should have the overall size of the length , breadth and width of the desired shape.
  3. Draw the desired shape with faint lines inside the box using the correct dimensions.
  4. Draw the correct shape of the object with a thick continuous line
  5. Erase out the construction lines neatly
