Orthographic Projection

Orthographic drawings refer to a 2-D representation of an object in a view that shows only one side at a time.

Most orthographic drawings occur in multi-drawing sets in order to depict each side, top and bottom view.

The six primary Orthographic Views are: Front, Top, Right, Left, Bottom, Back

Professions in design and construction use these types of drawings to inform the viewer of layout, size, and shape.

When looking for single simple shop drawings to have simple or even complex parts made, a simple orthographic drawing can be provided to produce the part.
