surface limit is a line that indicates the reversal of direction of
a curved surface.


A. Horizontal, Frontal and Profile Surfaces


The edges (represented by lines) bounding a surface may be
in a simple position or inclined to the planes of projection
depending up on the shape or position, the surface takes is
name from the plane of projection. Thus, a horizontal line is a
line in a horizontal plane; a frontal line is a line in a frontal
plane; and a profile line is a line in a profile plane. When a line
is parallel to two planes, the line takes the name of both
planes as horizontal frontal, horizontal- profile, or frontal –
profile.
