1 MEMB113: ENGINEERING GRAPHICS & CAE 12 SECTION VIEW

MEMB113 | Dept. of Mechanical Engineering | UNITEN | Sectioning A sectional view represents the part of an object which remains after a portion has been removed. Used to show hidden shape or form Will help to clarify what would normally be shown as hidden detail Only solid material being cut is sectioned The section is obtained by cutting the component into two parts at some good points Sectioning symbol or hatching should be used to indicate the part that has been cut Useful aid to draw equally spaced hatching line Hatching lines Thin continuous line Drawn at 45  to horizontal, right or left

12 SECTION VIEW MEMB113 | Dept. of Mechanical Engineering | UNITEN | Adjacent parts Section cutting planes are denoted by chain line Arrowheads indicate the direction of viewing The section view is identified by 'SECTION A-A'

12 SECTION VIEW MEMB113 | Dept. of Mechanical Engineering | UNITEN | As general rule, all material cut by a cutting plane is hatched, except for web, shafts, bolts, rivets, keys, pins, and similar parts

12 SECTION VIEW MEMB113 | Dept. of Mechanical Engineering | UNITEN | Drawing sectional views Full sectional view Isometric view of a section
