Viewing Objects
A box is formed by six
mutually perpendicular
planes of projection that are
located around the object
Lines are formed on the planes by projecting the
edges of the object onto the planes
TOP
BOTTOM
First-angle projection
Used by many European countries
Object is projected onto planes from
the first angle or quadrant
Front view projected to vertical plane
Top view projected to horizontal plane
Left-side view projected to profile plane
Third-angle projection
Standard for the United States
Third quadrant is used for projection
Front view projected to vertical plane
Top view projected to horizontal plane
Right-side view projected to profile plane
