Drawing Standards. BS 8888 Technical Product Documentation (TPD) Specification for defining, specifying and graphically representing products.

Drawing Standards

Note: The current edition is BS 8888:2011 This British Standard supersedes BS308-1:1993, BS308-2:1985 and BS308-3:1990, which are all withdrawn. Drawing conventions which applied to BS 308-1'2'3 in general also apply to the European Standards referenced in BS 8888. This standard is provided to unify all of the recently implemented ISO and EN ISO standards related to Technical Product Documentation (it references them). Ass 1 Comms for Tech 2014.doc.docx.

As I mentioned earlier Orthographic Projection involves us seeing an object in 2D.

Orthographic Projection

To do this we need to look at 90 degrees to a face of the object. Watch the animation below to see how this is done. When we draw an Orthographic view of the front of an object it is called a ELEVATION. When choosing which face to use as the Elevation you choose the longest Vertical face. This is because it improves the presentation of the object and because the longest face typically shows the most detail. ORTHOGRAPHIC PROJECTION Exercises.pdf. Creo1styear.pdf.
