Methods used to develop surfaces
Note:- The surface is preferably cut at the location where the edge will be
smallest such that welding or other joining procedures will be
minimal. 4
Parallel line development: This method is employed to develop the surfaces of
prisms and cylinders. Two parallel lines (called stretch-out lines) are drawn
from the two ends of the solids and the lateral faces are located between these
lines.
5
Development of lateral surfaces of different solids.
(Lateral surface is the surface excluding top & base)
Cylinder: A Rectangle
Pyramids: (No.of triangles)
Cone: (Sector of circle)
