Solid (Visible) Line Center Line Dimension Line Phantom Line Cutting Plane Line Long Break Line TYPES OF LINES Hidden Line Extension Line Leader Line Viewing Plane Line Section Line Short Break Line Chain Line
SOLID LINE Shows the edges of the object that are visible DEFINITION: EXAMPLE :
HIDDEN LINE Shows the edges of the object that are NOT visible DEFINITION: EXAMPLE:
CENTER LINE Locates the centers of holes, arcs and other symmetrical objects DEFINITION: EXAMPLE:
CENTER LINE
EXTENSION LINE Extends from the object in the view to give location points for dimensioning DEFINITION: EXAMPLE:
DIMENSION LINE Shows the extent of the dimension DEFINITION: EXAMPLE:
GENERAL NOTES: 100 70 = DIAMETER R = RADIUS (
GENERAL NOTES:
LEADER LINE Used to call out an area of the drawing DEFINITION: EXAMPLE: An arrow is used when termination is on the outline A dot is used when termination is within the outline
PHANTOM LINE These lines are used to show alternate positions, adjacent parts or repeated detail DEFINITION: EXAMPLE:
VIEWING PLANE LINE Indicates a viewpoint along a specific plane DEFINITION:
VIEWING PLANE LINE EXAMPLE :
CUTTING PLANE LINE Shows the location and viewing direction of a plane that cuts through an object DEFINITION: Viewing direction Viewing direction Viewing direction
CUTTING PLANE LINE EXAMPLE: Cutting plane Cutting plane line Section lines Shows the location and viewing direction of a plane that cuts through an object DEFINITION:
SECTION LINE Indicates the cut area in a section views of an object. DEFINITION: EXAMPLE:
SECTION LINE Shows the location and viewing direction of a plane that cuts through an object DEFINITION: EXAMPLE: Section lines
The section lines are different for each of material ’ s type. Cast iron, Malleable iron Steel Concrete Sand Wood For practical purpose, the cast iron symbol is used most often for any materials. SECTION LINE
COMMON MISTAKE SECTION LINE
It should not be drawn parallel or perpendicular to contour of the view. COMMON MISTAKE SECTION LINE
LONG BREAK LINE Shorten a view in an area where there is no change in the composition of an object DEFINITION: EXAMPLE:
