What is Axonometric?

Axonometric is a method of drawing in which an object is depicted using parallel lines to show three sides of it simultaneously. It is a useful tool in architectural and engineering design as it allows for a more comprehensive and accurate representation of a structure.

What are the types of Axonometric?

There are three main types of axonometric drawings: Isometric, Dimetric, and Trimetric. Each type has its own unique characteristics that make it suitable for different design purposes.

Isometric
Dimetric
Trimetric

How to complete Axonometric

To create an axonometric drawing, follow these steps:

01
Sketch the object you want to draw in 3D space.
02
Determine the type of axonometric projection you want to use (Isometric, Dimetric, or Trimetric).
03
Draw parallel lines to represent the object's sides in the chosen projection.
04
Add details and shading to enhance the 3D effect of the drawing.

When I first started using PDFfiller (couple of years ago) I wasn't impressed with it - it could have been because of a lack of experience. I had problems with lining up numbers or letters within the document. However, now it is a breeze and this program is great. I am beginning to depend on it a lot. Bottom line - it is a great product.

Questions & answers

Axonometric means “to measure along axes”. the axes of the object are drawn at a consistent scale. The scales of the different axes may differ from each other however and that is where the subsets of isometric, dimetric and trimetric come in.
There are three types of axonometric projections: Isometric – all dimensions are the same scale. Dimetric – di=2. 2 axes/dimensions foreshortened. Trimetric – tri=3. 3 axes/dimensions foreshortened.
Isometric (meaning “equal measure”) is a type of parallel (axonometric) projection, where the X and Z axes are inclined to the horizontal plane at the angle of 30⁰. The angle between axonometric axes equals 120⁰.
Axonometric sketching enables you to visualize 3D volumes by projecting vertically from a plan. When the plan is rotated (skewed) so it sits at 30° or 45° to the horizontal you can project up from this and add true heights of your elevation to produce pictorial drawings of spaces or objects.
In isometric projection, the most commonly used form of axonometric projection in engineering drawing, the direction of viewing is such that the three axes of space appear equally foreshortened, and there is a common angle of 120° between them.
