This set of Civil Engineering Drawing Multiple Choice Questions & Answers (MCQs) focuses on “Orthographic Reading and Conversion of Views”.

1. An orthographic projection map is a map projection of __________
a) Sphere
b) Earth
c) Cartography

The point of perspective for the orthographic projection is at infinite distance. It depicts a hemisphere of the globe as it appears from outer space, where the horizon is a great circle. The shapes and areas are distorted, particularly near the edges.
