2. What is Projections
When you through the light on an object at any angle,
then the image is formed of the object on reference
planes, that image is called Projection.

3. Objectives- Projection of Points
To draw the projections of a point in the four
quadrants.
To identify the position of the point in different
quadrants.

4. Coordinate System

5. Define projection of points
The position of a point in engineering drawing is defined
with respect to its distance from the three principle planes
i.e., with respect to the VP, HP, & PP.
VP: The plane in front of observer is the vertical plane.
(VP) or it is also called a Frontal plane.
HP: The plane which is Horizontal and perpendicular to
VP is Horizontal Plane.
Note: The planes HP and VP are called Principal Planes.
Reference Line: The line of intersection of HP and VP is
called reference line, which is denoted by X-Y

6. Types of views
Front View (FV): The projection on the VP is called
the Front View (FV) or Vertical Projection or front
elevation
Top View (TV): The projection on the HP is called the
Top View (TV) or Horizontal Projection or Plan. or
Elevation.
Side View: The projection on the side from the object
is called the side views.
Side views is classified in to
1.Left side view and (LSV)
2. Right side view(RSV)

7. Position of points
First quadrant -- Above HP & in front of VP
Second quadrant -- Above HP & behind VP
Third quadrant -- Below HP & behind VP
Fourth quadrant -- Below HP & in front of VP

8. ORIENTATION OF POINT IN SPACE
(1) In quadrant I (Above H.P & In Front of V.P.)
(2) In quadrant II (Above H.P & Behind V.P.)
(3) In quadrant III (Below H.P & Behind V.P.)
(4) In quadrant IV (Below H.P & In Front of V.P.)
(5) In Plane (Above H.P. & In V.P.)
(6) In Plane (Below H.P. & In V.P.)
(7) In Plane ( In H.P. & In front of V.P.)
(8) In Plane ( In H.P. & Behind V.P.)
(9) In Plane ( In H.P. & V.P.)

9. Notations of point in views
Following notations should be followed while
naming different views in orthographic
projections.

IT’S FRONT VIEW a’
IT’S SIDE VIEW a’’
