Section Views

Cutting Plane

• Imaginary cutting plane

• Reveals interior features

• Direction of line-of-sight is important

Hidden Lines

• Section views reduce the number of hidden lines.

• Therefore hidden lines are omitted from section views

• Center lines are

shown.

Cutting Plane Lines

• … show edge view of the cutting plane.

• … have an arrow

which indicates line-of-site.

– arrow points away from the section view!

• … take precedence

over center lines in edge view.

Section lines

• … indicate surfaces cut by the cutting plane.

• … are usually 45°.

• … should not run parallel to visible lines.

• Avoid text or dimensions within sectioned areas.

• Cast iron is a general purpose symbol.

Half-Section Broken-out Section

Revolved Section Removed Section

Offset Section Ribs and lugs

• A thin flat feature used for support

• Adding section lines

would imply solidity.

• When cutting plane runs parallel through rib – do not section.

• Only applies when C.P. runs parallel.

Standard Parts (Assembly)

• Standard parts (shafts, bolts, screws, nuts, rivets, keys, pins, bearings, and

gear teeth) are not sectioned.

• Only shown in

assembly drawings

Webs and Spokes

• Similar to ribs.

• Again – only applies when C.P. runs

parallel to web.

• Not sectioning spokes indicates the “non-continuity” around

circumference.

Alternate Sectioning: Webs & Ribs

• Sometimes no section lines would imply the absence of a feature.

• Alternate section lines are then used.

– Same direction

– Different spacing

Intersection of Cylinders

A. When a true projection creates a minor distortion a simplification is used. The true projection is replaced with a simple straight line projection.

B. Where the cutting plane intersects large features such as a large hole, the true projection is shown.

Foreshortening

• True orthographic projection sometimes yields a misimpression of objects.

– Example: Foreshortening of spokes should be avoided.

• Recommended practice is to rotate the spoke into the plane of the section view.

• The spoke is not sectioned as in conventional practice.

• The rear spoke projection is omitted for clarity.

Breaks

• Short break

• Long break

• Round solid

• Round hollow

• Rectangular solid

• Rectangular hollow

Exercise: Sections Auxiliary Views

• Used to show true size and shape of inclined surfaces.

Creating Auxiliary Views Partial Auxiliary Views

Auxiliary Section

• Like a removed section.

• Only shows cross-

section.
