Planometric Views – What are they ?
Planometric views are a type of measured three dimensional drawing
that may be encountered in all Graphic Communication courses.
Planometric views are generally used when working on architectural
drawings.
Planometric views are similar in construction to isometric drawings with
a corner of the drawing closest to the viewer. The difference is that the
viewing point in a Planometric is higher than used in isometrics.

USEFUL PRESENTATIONS
Behind every orange box on this page is a presentation which you should watch. They
will help you in a couple of ways.
They could be used to confirm that your understanding of a topic is correct.
They could also be used to guide you in the topics which you found difficult in class
the first time round. They are designed as self help. Go through them slowly and if you
still don’t get it, go back to your teacher as soon as possible.
