Orthographic projection
The aim of an engineering drawing is to convey all the necessary information of how to make the part to the manufacturing department. For most parts, the information cannot be conveyed in a single view. Rather than using several sheets of paper with different views of the part, several views can be combined on a single drawing using one of the two available projection systems, first angle, and third angle projection.
The diagram below demonstrates how the projection systems work
