OBS

[...] les représentations dites en perspective utilisées dans les dessins techniques ont seulement pour but de donner d'un objet une représentation [...] permettant de mieux se rendre compte [...] de l'aspect général de cet objet. Toutefois lorsque les objets sont simples, ils peuvent parfois être complètement définis par une représentation perspective qui, dans un seul dessin, peut suffire à déterminer tous les éléments nécessaires à la construction de l'objet.
