Using reference planes, locate points in all views.
Define the type of line or curve based on definition.
Determine true length of lines and true view of planes.

Outcome 2: Upon completion of this course, students will be to apply the rules of projection to create orthographic drawings.

Objectives:

Properly locate each principle view.
Identify points, lines, and planes throughout each orthographic view.
Project points, lines, and planes through all views.
Apply correct coding of lines in all orthographic views.

Outcome 3: Upon completion of this course, students will be able to create pictorial drawings.

Objectives:

Determine the difference between isometric and oblique pictorial drawings.
Sketch linear, circular, and cylindrical features in a pictorial drawing.
Identify and draw cabinet and cavalier pictorial drawings.
