First, you have to understand those different drawing approaches. It can help you to communicate with client or suppliers.
Orthographic=>
Orthographic
projections are a way of describing what an object looks like from several
different views.
Orthographics
are also called engineering drawings or plan views.
When drawing orthographic drawings, the observer present a 3D image in two dimensions, and you will generally produce three views. A plan view, end elevation and a front elevation.
- The plan view is the view of objects when we look directing down on the top of the objects
- End elevation is either or sometimes both the remaining side views.
- Front elevation is the view when we look straight on the front of the objects.
Cutaway=>
According to Diepstraten et al. (2003) "the purpose of a cutaway drawing
is to allow the viewer to have a look into an otherwise solid opaque object.
Isometric
=> To create 2D drawings that
represent 3D objects, such as cubes.
Isometric
drawings are not true 3D drawings. They simulate a 3D object from a particular
viewpoint by aligning along three major axes.
Unlike
perspective drawing, lines in Isometric or Axonometric drawings do not
converge. In fact they only go in 3 different directions. Vertical and 30
degrees left and right in Isometric Projections, vertical and 45 degrees left
and right in Axonometric projections.
Often,
Axonometric projections may appear to be distorted but they are very useful to
show as much as possible of, for example, the inside of a room.
Perspective=> the principles are quite straightforward.
In 1 point perspective drawing, lines
converge towards one vanishing point.
In 2 points perspective drawing, lines
converge towards two vanishing points.
In 3 points perspective drawing, lines
converge towards three vanishing points.
Perspective-
a technique of depicting volumes and spatial relationships on a flat surface.
Horizon
Line- A level horizontal line located at eye level.
Vanishing
Point- A point of convergence of parallel lines located on the Horizon Line.
Scale-
The apparent size of an object.
The horizon line, also known as eye level, is an imaginary plane passing through the eyes of the viewer when looking straight ahead. Therefore, a perspective drawing of the same object/scene will be different depending on the position of the eye level/horizon.
Exploded
views=>
An
exploded view drawing shows the intended assembly of mechanical or other parts
and demonstrate how they fit together.
It shows
the components of an object slightly separated by distance, or suspended in
surrounding space in the case of a three-dimensional exploded diagram.
Detail drawing => A detail drawing shows a single component or part.
Section
view=>To produce a sectional view, an imaginary plane, called the cutting
plane, cuts through the object and the two halves are separated to expose the
interior construction.
The direction
of sight may be toward the right or left half
