UNIT-IV SECTION OF SOLIDS

What is Section of Solids:
Sections and sectional views are used to show hidden detail more
clearly. They-are created by using a cutting plane to cut the object.
A section is a view of no thickness and shows the outline of the object
at the cutting plane. Visible outlines beyond the cutting plane are not
drawn.
A sectional view, displays the outline of the cutting plane and all visible
outlines which can be seen beyond the cutting plane.

Section of Solids Objectives:
This session will help you to learn
The need for sectioning.
How a cutting plane can be described.
How the true shape of an apparent section can be described.
How the frustum of a solid can be described.
How the sectional views of solids may be drawn.

Types of Section Views:
 Full sections
 Half sections
 Offset sections
 Revolved sections
 Removed sections
 Broken-out sections

Cutting Plane
Section views show how an object would look if a cutting plane (or saw)
cut through the object and the material in front of the cutting plane was
discarded.
Representation of cutting plane
According to drawing standards cutting plane is represented by chain
line with alternate long dash and dot. The two ends of the line should be
thick.

Full Section View
In a full section view, the cutting plane cuts across the entire object
Note that hidden lines become visible in a section view
Hatching
On sections and sectional views solid area should be hatched to indicate
this fact. Hatching is drawn with a thin continuous line, equally spaced
(Preferably about 4 mm apart, though never less than 1 mm) and
preferably at an angle of 45 degrees

Frustum of a solid and Truncated solid:
When a solid is cut by a cutting plane parallel to its base, the portion
Obtained after removing the top portion is called "Frustum".
When a solid is cut by a cutting plane inclined to its base, the portion
obtained after removing the top portion is called the "truncated" solid.

Types of Sectional Views for Solids:
By using the five different types of perpendicular section planes we obtain
the following five types of sectional views of solids:
1.Cutting plane is obtained by horizontal planes.
2.Cutting plane is obtained by vertical planes.
3.Cutting plane is obtained by auxiliary inclined planes.
4.Cutting plane is obtained by auxiliary vertical planes.
