Overview

EN ISO 5456-1:1999 / ISO 5456-1:1996 - Technical drawings - Projection methods - Part 1: Synopsis provides a concise survey of the different projection methods used in technical drawing. It defines key terms and explains the geometric relationships and invariants that distinguish orthographic, axonometric and central (perspective) projection systems. This part is a high-level guide; detailed rules for each method are covered in Parts 2–4.

Key topics

  • Survey of projection systems: categorizes projection methods by projector type (parallel or convergent), projection plane orientation (orthogonal or oblique) and object position relative to the projection plane.
  • Definitions and terminology: clear definitions for terms such as pictorial representation, true view, exploded view and principal view, based on ISO vocabulary references.
  • Geometrical orientation: coordinate axes (X, Y, Z) and coordinate planes (XY, YZ, XZ) using the right-hand rule; guidance ties to ISO 1503 for spatial orientation.
  • Projection invariants: which geometric properties are preserved for each method, e.g. angle and similarity preservation for central projections, parallelism and divisional ratios for oblique and orthogonal projections.
  • Tabular comparison: concise comparison (Table 1) of orthogonal, axonometric and central projection characteristics - view type (2D vs 3D), projection centre (finite vs infinite), and typical applications.
  • Normative references: links projection method rules to other standards (ISO 10209, ISO 128, ISO 1503) for consistent technical documentation vocabulary and presentation.

Applications and users

EN ISO 5456-1 is intended for professionals who create, read or manage technical drawings and need a consistent understanding of projection choices:

  • Mechanical, civil and architectural drafters and engineers
  • CAD and technical illustrators producing pictorial or orthographic views
  • Technical documentation authors (manuals, assembly instructions, exploded views)
  • Quality, compliance and document control personnel who implement drawing standards
  • Educators and students in engineering graphics and drafting courses

Practical value: helps teams choose the most appropriate projection method for clarity, manufacturability and communication (e.g., orthographic for precise dimensioning, pictorial/axonometric for easy visualisation, central projection for realistic representation).

Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of
preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which
a technical committee has been established has the right to be rep-
resented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. IS0
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard IS0 5456-l was prepared by Technical Committee
ISOfTC 10, Technical drawings, product definition and related documen-
tation, Subcommittee SC 1, Basic conventions.
IS0 5456 consists of the following parts, under the general title Technical
drawings - Projection methods:
- Part 7 : Synopsis
- Part 2: Orthographic representations
Part 3: Axonome tric representations
Part 4: Central projection

Introduction
In the broad field of technical activities, various projection methods are
used to represent objects. All these methods have their own merits, but
also their inherent disadvantages.
The normal technical drawing is often an orthogonal projection, in which
related representations of more than one view are utilized (see IS0 5456-Z)
to draw and completely define any object by means of carefully chosen
views, cuts and sections.
However, the execution of such two-dimensional representations requires
an understanding of both the projection method and its interpretation, so
that the observer will be able to synthesize the single views into a three-
dimensional object.
For many technical fields and their stages of development, however, it is
necessary to provide an easily understood picture to observers. Such
drawings, called pictorial representation, provide a three-dimensional view
of an object as it would appear to the observer. No special technical train-
ing for reading pictorial representations is necessary.
Pictorial representations ma presented on their own or may sup-
Y be
plement orthogonal drawings
exist, but their nomenclatures
Variou s methods of pictorial representations
differ, and may be used even contradictorily.
The steady increase in global technical intercommunication, as well as the
evolution of methods of computer-aided design and draughting with their
various types of three-dimensional representations, suggest the need for
ISOnC 10 to clarify this problem.
The rules and conventions given in IS0 5456 should be used, in accord-
ance with IS0 128, for all types of technical drawings and in all fields of
technical activities, such as:
- mechanical and construction drawings;
- manuals and instruction books;
- X-ray views;
- exploded views.
