Step-by-Step Construction
- 1
Oblique plane makes angles with both HP and VP (not perpendicular to either)
- 2
Through P, draw a line perpendicular to HP at 50° in suitable view
- 3
Through P, draw another line perpendicular to VP at 40° in suitable view
- 4
Plane containing these two lines is the required oblique plane
- 5
Find where this plane intersects HP (Horizontal Trace - HT)
- 6
Find where plane intersects VP (Vertical Trace - VT)
- 7
Draw HT and VT - these are the traces of oblique plane
Pro Tips
- •Always verify your measurements with a scale before finalizing the drawing
- •Use construction lines lightly and darken the final solution
- •Label all important points and reference lines clearly
