    This document discusses different types of pictorial drawings used in construction, including isometric, oblique, axonometric, and planometric drawings. Isometric drawings are the most common type and involve drawing horizontal lines at 30 degrees and keeping vertical lines vertical. However, isometric drawings can appear elongated, so an isometric scale should be used to proportion the drawing correctly. Examples are provided of constructing specific structures like bricks and dovetailed joints using isometric projection techniques.

    PICTORIAL DRAWINGS

    There are many types of pictorial drawings and these include


    isometric, oblique, axonometric and planometrics and the four
    drawings figures 164 - 167 illustrate the differences between Figure 166
    them. Of these, isometric drawings are the most common.

    ISOMETRIC PROJECTIONS

    Figure 168 is an isometric drawing giving details of a reinforced


    concrete floor supported by beams and columns and figure
    169 is an isometric view of a carpenter's sawing horse. This
    type of drawing is fairly simple to construct when one remem-
    bers that all horizontal lines on the object must be drawn at
    30° and all vertical lines remain vertical. Unfortunately,
    isometric drawings constructed as in the two drawings tend to
    oblique be too elongated so if it is important to produce an isometric
    drawing in which all parts appear to be in good proportion to
    Figure 165 the others an isometric scale should be made as in figure 170.

    Isometric scale
    Units are marked on the 45° line and then projected down to
    the 30° line. The vertical lines in the drawing are drawn to
    their correct size but all 30° lines are drawn using the isome-
    tric scale which makes them slightly shorter than they would
    be if drawn to their correct length. This adjustment will make
    all isometric drawings appear more correct.
    Figure 171 shows the plan and section through a common
    building brick. Figure 172 shows an isometric drawing of the
    brick and how the frog of the brick can be drawn .

    a - b, a - c, a - d etc., and 1 - 2, 1 - 3, 1 - 4, etc., must
    all be marked down the vertical lines to enable the isometric
    drawings to be produced correct in all details.
