ORTHOGRAPHIC PROJECTIONS OF SIMPLE MACHINE BLOCKS
6.1 INTRODUCTION
We have already made you aware of many simple geometrical shapes (laminae), projected on such planes (vertical plane, horizontal plane and other auxiliary planes) while projecting the various views of simple regular geometrical solids. Similarly, it is necessary to understand any machine block as combination of the geometrical solids by adding solids together or removinggeometrical solids out of a single solid. For example, a hexagonal nut is formed out of a hexagonal prism by removing a small cylinder and cutting internal helical groove(internal threads). Reverse of it is square bolt in which square prism and small cylinder i one integral solid with external helical groove (external threads) cut on it.
In figure 6.1 a cube of 15 mm is removed outfrom a single solid i.e. a rectangular prism. An orthographic projection is one position drawing. It takes several drawings to show and understand all the machine block form. The views are placed relative to each other according to either of two schemes. FIRST
ANGLE PROJECTION METHOD OR THIRD ANGLE PROJECTION METHOD. Note : However we are following only first angle method of projection in all the exercises (According to CBSE prescribed Orthographic projections of simple machine blocks

Note : This inclined face is seen in Top View and in Front View
V = Vertical Face, H = Horizontal Face, I = Inclined Face, F = Front, S = Side and T = Top
IMPORTANT OBSERVATIONS :
If the surface/face of an object is either parallel to the vertical plane or horizontal plane (Principal Planes) they appear to be in TRUE SHAPE in one of the three views and appear as a “line only” in other two views (a these faces are perpendicular to the plane of projection). When a surface/face is inclined or making an angle with two planes at the same time, that surface/face is not seen in its TRUE SHAPE in the plane to which it is inclined. It is seen in the plane to which it is inclined as a plane of reduced size due to foreshortening.
