Scientific Drawing — 3rd Year (Mathematics-Physics track)

The complete Scientific Drawing — 3rd Year, Mathematics-Physics track curriculum, on Akaguriro Academy: the official Burundian syllabus, covered in full, term by term, like a real school year.

Scientific Drawing A3 MPT — the whole syllabus, no gaps

From the intersection of solids by a plane to descriptive geometry, this course follows the exact structure of the Burundian curriculum, illustrated with 151 real technical drawings extracted directly from the official teacher's guide (Monge's projection method) — not schematic reconstructions. A subject specific to the Mathematics-Physics track, built on the classic reference R. Verschraegen, Dessin Scientifique, 1974.

🎯 Course goals

• Master the entire Scientific Drawing A3 MPT syllabus as taught in Burundi.
• Understand solid intersections and penetrations, geometric shadow construction, and descriptive geometry (dihedrals, lines, planes, parallelism, perpendicularity).
• Practice with corrected exercises and random-question quizzes on every chapter.
• Track your own progress objectively through built-in practice quizzes.

📘 Detailed syllabus — 29 weeks, exercises and quizzes, over 3 terms

Term 1 — Intersections and penetrations of solids (vertical then mixed axes)

1. Intersection of a geometric solid with any plane
2. Intersection (continued): cone, prism, cylinder
3. Exercises and introduction to penetrations
4. Penetration pyramid/prism, coincident vertical axes
5. Penetration pyramid/cylinder, coincident vertical axes
6. Penetration of two pyramids, coincident vertical axes
7. Penetration pyramid/cone, coincident vertical axes
8. Penetration cone/prism, one horizontal axis and one vertical
9. Penetration prism/pyramid, one horizontal axis and one vertical
10. Integration (synthesis)
11. Integration situation: SIBOMANA's monument
12. Integration situation: the Bujumbura City Hall masterpiece

Term 2 — Penetrations (continued) and geometric shadow construction

1. Penetration of two pointed solids, mixed axes
2. Penetration of two non-pointed solids, mixed axes
3. Penetration of two prisms
4. Geometric shadows: general principles (sunlight vs torchlight)
5. Cast shadow of a point, segment and plane figures
6. Own shadow and cast shadow: prism and pyramid
7. Own shadow and cast shadow: cylinder, cone and sphere
8. Exercises (sunlight) and torchlight
9. Integration situation: the priest's monument (prism + pyramid)
10. Integration situation: the priest's monument (cylinder + pyramid)

Term 3 — Descriptive geometry

1. The four dihedrals and bisecting planes
2. Line projections, special positions
3. Perpendicular lines, plane representation, projecting planes
4. Application I: missing projection of a line in a plane
5. Horizontal/frontal lines and missing point in a plane
6. Parallel lines and planes
7. Perpendicular lines and planes
8. Integration situation: the village granary (prism + cylinder)
9. Integration situation: the village granary (cylinder + prism)

Every chapter includes its lesson (with real technical drawings) and a random-question practice quiz; integration weeks bring together real, complete situations with model answers and grading grids.
