Lesson
13: Drawing the Garage Door Handle in Ortho, Iso and 3d |
FIG. 13a (the Garage Door Handle)
| |
In lesson 13 you will be drawing something that is
easy to conceptualize and handles are used everywhere.
All of us are involved with handles everyday. There
function is very much of a lever and there is a mechanical
advantage from its use. Imagine a life with no handles!
The garage door handle has only 2 useful views and
it is easy to see its working position, or should
I say its mounting position in this particular case
Connecting Your Learning
As you work your way through this lesson, you should
reflect on the following questions:
How did the handle get its name?
How is the ellipse used to obtain the shape of this
model?
How can the fillet command be used instead of ellipse
followed by trim commands?
Which view will I use to extrude this model for a
3d illustration?

The State of Arizona has assembled Drafting
standards to make sure that Instruction is thorough
and well thought out by the instructor. By clicking
on the hyperlink below will upload to your browser window
the entirety of these standards. The standards that
are addressed in this lesson are below the hyperlink.
1.0 USE BOARD DRAFTING EQUIPMENT,
INSTRUMENTS AND MEDIA.
2.0 DEMONSTRATE SKETCHING, LETTERING,
AND LINE SKILLS.
- 2.1 Demonstrate freehand sketching skills for drafting
applications.
- 2.2 Demonstrate lettering skills.
- 2.3 Demonstrate line work.
6.0 DEMONSTRATE GEOMETRIC CONSTRUCTIONS
- 6.1 Measure Geometric Constructions.
- 6.2 Develop Geometric Constructions.
8.0 APPLY BOARD DRAFTING SKILLS TO COMPUTER-AIDED
DESIGN/DRAFTING (CADD)
- 8.1 Demonstrate computer skills for a CADD system.
- 8.2 Create dimensional CADD entities.
- 8.3 Create 3 dimensional CADD drawings.
The State of Arizona has also assembled Math
standards and many of these apply directly to
the vocational subject area of Drafting. Drafting
is a very precise discipline and the use of mathematics
is integral to design and manufacturing. Below are
the math standards that are involved in this lesson
1M-P1. Compare and contrast
the real number system and its various subsystems
with
regard to their structural characteristics
-
PO 2. Compare subsets of the
real number system with regard to their properties
(commutative, associative, distributive, identity,
inverse and closure properties)
1M-P2. Construct, interpret and
demonstrate meaning for real numbers and absolute
- PO 3. Solve real-world distance problems using
absolute value
- PO 4. Determine, among the solutions to a real-world
problem, which, if any, is reasonable
- PO 2. Define absolute value as the distance from
the origin
4M-P1. Interpret and draw three-dimensional
objects
- PO 1. Sketch prisms, pyramids, cones, cylinders
and spheres
- PO 2. Classify prisms, pyramids, cones, cylinders
and spheres by base shape and lateral surface shape.
- PO 3. Recognize the three-dimensional figure represented
by a two-dimensional drawing.
- PO 5. Make a model of a three-dimensional figure
from a two-dimensional drawing and make a two-dimensional
representation of a three-dimensional object (models
and representations include scale drawings, perspective
drawings, blueprints or computer simulations)
4M-P4. Deduce properties of,
and relationships between, figures from given
assumptions
- PO 1. Find similarities and differences among
geometric shapes and designs using a given attribute
(e.g., height, area, perimeter, diagonals and angle
measurements)
- PO 2. Identify arcs, chords, tangents and secants
of a circle
- PO 3. State valid conclusions using given geometric
definitions, postulates and theorems
- PO 4. Represent pi as the ratio of circumference
to diameter

Lesson
Objectives
By the end of this lesson you should be
able to:
1. Draw the orthographic views of the
handle and dimension the model.
2. Identify the isometric angles used to create isometric
views (30, 90 and 150 degrees)
3. Create an isometric view using the front view of
the handle.
4. Adjust the dimscale overall and linear to reflect
full scale dimensions in the ortho/iso drawing.
5. Create the 3d model of the handle from the top orthographic
view.
6. Working with colors for visualization enhancement.
7. Using 2 views to illustrate a model.
8. Be able to use ellipse and trim commands as well
as fillet to create arcs at intersections.
9. Be able to distinguish when a model line takes precedence
over a hidden line.

Terms

The 13th
model you will be drawing is called the garage door handle
and it is a model where only the front and top view are
necessary to completely illustrate the model and its attributes.
The illustration
of the garage door handle orthographically involves only
2 circles for its mounting holes.The side view of this
model is illustrated with hidden and center lines. In
this model there are several radius's involved at the
bends in the handle arm.
Insert your
Lesson 13 media disk into your CD drive and begin listening
to the avi file: lesson 13a. You can open up both software
programs: ACAD and your media player at the same time
and toggle back and forth between screens, and be able
to draw and listen simultaneously.
Below is
an example of what your completed drawing should look
like. Pay attention to details so you can obtain all your
points for this assignment. It is always better to get
it right the first time, especially when you have what
the finished product should look like. I will mention
in the media files about the Dim-scale of the dimension
text.
The next part of Lesson 13b you will be creating the
Isometric view of the garage door handle. This particular
drawing can be easily drawn with the benefit of using
"boxing in", also called "the Glass Box"
. The fillet command can be used quite accurately instead
of using ellipses and then the trim command to carve out
the corners of the handle.
Please Insert the Media Disk and listen to lesson 13b.
Below is what your completed assignment should look like
when complete.
Please Insert the Media Disk labeled Lesson
13 into your CD drive of your computer and begin listening
how to draw the 3d model of the garage door handle. The
lesson avi is titled Lesson 13c and below is an example
of a completed accurate model of the garage door handle.
You will submit your drawing in South East Isometric. This
is what your completed 3d assignment should look like.
*Note:
The Lessons are best viewed with real player, or Windows
Media Player 9 for 2000 Professional and Version 10 for
XP.
After
completing each lesson attach your drawing to an email and
send to your Instructor's email.
