Engineering 1182 College of Engineering Engineering Education Innovation Center Basic Isometric Sketching and Coded Plans Chapter 2 of Text

Engineering 1182 Objectives Understand the basics of the isometric sketching Create basic isometric sketches using snap cubes and coded plans

Engineering 1182 Isometric Sketches Isometric sketches represent 3 dimensional objects in 2D space. Isometric coordinate system Isometric grid and dot paper

Engineering 1182 Isometric Sketches Isometric sketches are made as if you’re looking down the diagonal of a cube. Diagonal of the cube End view of the diagonal Note that when we look down on the cube like this, the right angles appear distorted. The square sides of the cube now look like parallelograms.

Engineering 1182 Coded plans Coded plans define simple objects which can be made from blocks. Each number represents how tall the stack of blocks is at that location.

Engineering 1182 Isometric Sketches from Coded Plans Lines are shown only where surfaces intersect. Hidden edges are not shown. * A SolidWorks implementation of this object is available on the EEIC website *

Engineering 1182 Isometric Sketches and Coded Plans Use this time and your snap cubes to practice building objects and sketching in isometric perspective using coded plans. In class assignment
