An auxiliary view allows you to look directly at the inclined surface.

Briefly explain the difference between the partial auxiliary view and the full auxiliary view.

The preferred practice is to align an auxiliary view with its principal view when possible, which generally makes it easier to read the print. However, there is an option to rotate an auxiliary view when the normal auxiliary view placement takes up too much space on the sheet. When this is done, a viewing-plane line is used to indicate from where the view is taken, and the auxiliary view is placed in any desired location on the sheet. The auxiliary view is rotated as needed and the angle and direction of rotation is specified under the view title.

When it is not possible to align the auxiliary view directly from the inclined surface, then a viewing-plane line can be used and the view placed in a convenient location on the sheet.

A secondary auxiliary view is projected from a primary auxiliary view. The definition of secondary auxiliary view is a view that is adjacent to and projected from a primary auxiliary view or from another secondary auxiliary view.

An auxiliary view is projected from the inclined surface in the view where the inclined surface appears as a:

The viewing-plane line is labeled with numbers so the view can be clearly identified. This is especially important to observe when several viewing-plane lines are used to label different auxiliary views.

Name the method used when a viewing arrow with a view identification letter points to the location from where the view is taken. The auxiliary view is then placed in any desired location on the sheet and in the same orientation as the reference arrow. The view identification letter is placed above the auxiliary view.

Primary auxiliary views are views that take the place of a principal view.

The full auxiliary view shows the true size and shape of the inclined surface.

When necessary, auxiliary views can be found on a sheet other than where the viewing plane lines appear. The method for doing this is called cross-reference zoning and is used to indicate the location of a view back to the viewing location on a previous page. The auxiliary view is located on a different page and is labeled with the sheet number and zone of the cross-reference viewing plane.

This shows the true size and shape of the inclined surface and all other features of the object projected onto the auxiliary plane.

Describe the method called cross-reference zoning used to indicate the location of a view back to the viewing location on a previous page.

When a surface feature is perpendicular to the line of sight, the feature is said to be foreshortened, or shorter than true length.

This is a view that is adjacent to and projected from a primary auxiliary view or from another secondary auxiliary view.

When the auxiliary view is completed, one projection line remains between the views to indicate alignment and view relationship.

This auxiliary view shows only the true size and shape of the inclined surface.

When the reference arrow method is used, a viewing arrow with a view identification letter points to the location from where the view is taken. The auxiliary view is then placed in any desired location on the sheet and in the same orientation as the reference arrow. The view identification letter is placed above the auxiliary view.
