0 0 3 3

UNIT I:
General: Importance, Significance and scope of engineering drawing Lettering, Dimensioning, Scales, Sense of Proportioning, Different types of Projections, B.I.S. Specification, line symbols, rules of printing.

UNIT II:
Projections of Points and Lines: Introduction of planes of projection, Reference and auxiliary planes, projections of points and lines in different quadrants, traces, inclinations, and true lengths of the lines, projections on auxiliary planes, shortest distance, intersecting and nonintersecting lines.

UNIT III:
Planes Other than the Reference Planes: Introduction of other planes (perpendicular and oblique), their traces, inclinations etc., projections of points lines in the planes, conversion of oblique plane into auxiliary plane and solution of related problems.

UNIT IV:
Projections of Plane Figures: Different cases of plane figure (of different shapes) making different angles with one or both reference planes and lines lying in the plane figures making different given angles (with one or both reference planes). Obtaining true shape of the plane figure by projection.
UNITV:
Projection of Solids: Simple cases when solid is placed in different positions, Axis, faces and lines lying in the faces of the solid making given angles.

UNIT VI:
Isometric and Orthographic: First and Third angle of system of projection sketching of Orthographic views from pictorial views and vice-versa principles and type of sectioning.
