Exercise4.3

Draw the three views of the hexagonal prism shown in Fig 3A.
Note: From the position described above, it is clear that the hexagonal face of the prism is parallel
to AVP. Therefore the end view is a true hexagon and hence this view should be drawn first.
• Draw the end view (hexagonal of side 25 mm) with one side on HP line. (Fig 3B)
• Draw horizontal projectors from side view and complete the elevation. (in the elevation two lateral faces are
visible, but they are fore shortened)

• Draw projectors from elevation and side view and complete the plan.
(Three lateral faces are visible of which one is of true shape and the other two are fore shortened)
