THIRD-ANGLE PROJECTION. Figure
5-7 shows a third-angle projection of a
cube. As you can see, you get a
front view on the vertical plane, a
top view on the horizontal plane, and a right
side view on the profile plane.

projection.

brought into a single plane.
Again you assume that the vertical plane is already
in the plane of your drawing paper. To get
the other two views into the same plane, you rotate
them both clockwise.
Figure 5-8 shows a third-angle projection of
an object brought into a single plane. The
top view is above the front view; the

right side of the object, as shown in the front
view, is toward the right side view; and
the top, as shown in the front view, is toward the
top view.
