Question

Where is the position of bottom view in 1st angle projection?

(a) left side of right hand side view

(b) right side of right hand side view

(c) above the front view

(d) below the top view

This question was posed to me at a job interview.

Question is from First Angle Projection Method in division Loci of Points & Orthographic Projections of Engineering Drawing

Answer 1

Correct answer is (c) above the front view

To explain: First angle projection means the object is placed in first quadrant and the top view of the object is below the front view so the bottom view is above the front view. This is obtained as the bottom view is viewed from bottom and so is projected upwards.
