Introduction To Section of Solids

A sectional view in engineering drawing represents a 'cut' through a solid to reveal internal features, providing clarity by eliminating hidden lines. Various orientations of the section plane can be used, including parallel and inclined to horizontal and vertical planes. Sectional views help simplify complex drawings and enhance understanding of the object's structure.

Introduction to Sectional Views

What is a Sectional View?


• ‘Section’ in the context of Engineering Drawing
means ‘Cut’.
• A Sectional View is a orthographic view(FV, TV
or SV), which has been obtained by cutting the
solid with a imaginary section plane (cutting
plane ).
Introduction to Sectional Views

Why Sectional Views?


• Orthographic Views of an object shows features
even if they are complicated.
• But some drawings becomes too awkward with
hidden lines all over.
• Too avoid this problem, one or more views are
drawn as a sectional view.
Introduction to Sectional Views

Possible orientation of section plane:


• Section Plane parallel to H.P.
• Section Plane parallel to V.P.
• Section Plane inclined to H.P and perpendicular to V.P.
• Section Plane inclined to V.P and perpendicular to H.P.
• Section Plane inclined to both H.P and V.P.
