Auxilliary Section View Question
Auxilliary Section View Question
(OP)
All,
this is a simple question so I'm sure it won't strain anyone's brain. I had a discussion with someone at my work this morning about making an auxilliary view not being at the correct projected angle just to make the drawing look nicer. For the case that a tradtional auxilliary view won't fit on the sheet, one can make a section plane outside the part and put it on a subsequent sheet. But, is making the view at an unrotated orientation inccorrect as shown in the attachmnet? I don't have ASME Y14.3 so any help resolving this would be helpful, thanks
Josh.

RE: Auxilliary Section View Question
thanks for the response but I guess my question is more related to view creation fundamentals rather than the particular drawing I have shown. The drawing I have shown is just an example where I am really interested in knowing whether its acceptable to have projected views not at the real angle they should be...

There are other ways of indicating it per 1.7.6 but the above is probably easier.
