PREREQUISITE KNOWLEDGE: Basics of Geometry.
COURSE DESCRIPTION AND OBJECTIVES:
This course provides a foundational understanding of engineering drawing, focusing on basic projections,
dimensioning, and reading technical drawings relevant across various engineering disciplines. The
objective is to equip learners with essential skills to visualize, interpret, and communicate design ideas
e ectively using standard drawing practices.

UNIT-2
PROJECTION OF POINTS AND STRAIGHT LINES:
Introduction: Reference planes, importance of reference lines and planes; Principles of projection.
Projection of Points: Projection of points located in any of the four quadrants.
Projection of Straight Lines: Projection of straight lines - parallel to both the reference planes, parallel
to the one plane and inclined to other plane, parallel to one plane and perpendicular to other plane.
PRACTICES:
● A road roller covers ‘x’ kilometres distance in one day & the roller completed ‘N’ revolutions in
a minute. By using the above information, inscribe a regular hexagon and pentagon in a circle
of diameter, D. Where ‘D’ is considered as the diameter of the road roller. Also evaluate the
length of each side of the regular hexagon and pentagon.
● A cow is tethered in the middle of a eld which is in the form of circular shape and suppose
that cow grazes ‘x’ square meters in a day. By using the above information, inscribe regular
hexagon and pentagon in a circle of diameter ‘D’.
● Two oranges on a tree are respectively x m and y m above the ground, and p m and q m from
a r m thick wall, but on the opposite sides of it. The distance between the oranges, measured
along the ground and parallel to the wall is ‘L’ m. (a) Determine the real distance between the
oranges and the angle of inclination of the line joining the oranges with the ground and also
with the wall.
● A room measures ‘x’ m long, ‘y’ m wide and ‘z’ m height. Assume (x>y>z). An electric bulb
hangs in the centre of the ceiling and ‘p’ m below it. A thin straight wire connects the bulb to a
switch kept in one of the corners of the room and ‘r’ m above the oor. Draw the projections.
● On lighting a rocket cracker, it gets projected in a parabolic path and reaches a maximum
height of ‘x’ m when it is ‘y’ m away from the point of projection. Finally, it reaches the ground
‘z’ m away from the starting point. Find the angle of projection.
● Two pegs xed on a wall are ‘x’ meters apart. The distance between the pegs measured parallel
to the oor is ‘y’ meters. If one peg is ‘z’ meters above the oor. Consider (x>y>z) & assume
suitable scales. Design the height of the second peg and the inclination of the line joining the
two pegs with the oor. Develop the projections.

PRACTICES:
● A plate having shape of an isosceles triangle has base ‘x’ mm long and altitude ‘y’ mm. It is
so placed that in the front view it is seen as an equilateral triangle of ‘x’ mm sides and one
side inclined at an angle ‘θ’ degrees to the reference line. Develop its front view and top view.
● Prepare the top-view (plan) of a class-room/lab, home (Drawing Room/Bedroom/ Study Room,
Kitchen) along with suitable dimensions.
● A lighting point in a ceiling design is 0 mm above the HP and 50 mm in front of the VP (i.e., lies
exactly on HP). Draw views and mark the location. Explain what it means physically.
● A sensor mounted on a panel lies 25 mm below the panel surface (HP) and 60 mm in front of
the operator (VP). Draw the reference line and mark views. Justify point placement.
● You are given an isometric view of an L-shaped bracket with holes and steps. Draw the
orthographic views (Front, Top, and Right Side views).
ACTIVITIES:
● Developing the following solids with the help of cardboard/ thick paper, cube, cuboid prisms
& pyramids (triangular, square, pentagonal, and hexagonal) right circular cylinder and cone.
● Design a Bolt and nut assembly for the given dimensions.
● Design a Connecting rod of IC engine for the given dimensions.
● Design a I.C Engine Piston with piston rings for the given dimensions.
