Introduction
Development:
•Development is the unfold/unrolled plane figure of 3D object
•A layout of the complete surface of a three dimensional object on
a plane is called the development of the surface/pattern of the
object.
•The knowledge of development of surfaces is very useful in the
sheet metal industry, where products like utensils, cans, buckets,
hoppers, boxes, container, boilers, vessels etc. are manufactured.
•Prior to that, the designer must use the development drawing on
the sheet metal to get the accurate shape/ pattern of the
components.
Intro…
• Every line used in making the development must represent the
true length of the line (edge) on the object.
• A surface is said to be developable if it can be unfolded /
unrolled to coincide with a plane.
• Surfaces of polyhedral (prism and pyramid) and single-curved
surfaces (cylinder and cone) are developable.
• But warped surfaces and double curved surfaces are not
developable they may be developed by approximately dividing
them into developable sections.

Terms used
• Pattern – The development of an object that is rolled/
folded.
• Lateral development- if development excludes the top
and bottom covers.
• Complete surface development- if development
includes the top and bottom covers.
• Right Cylinder- cylinder axis is made perpendicular to
the base of the solid
• Truncated cylinder – A cylinder that has the end cut
off by an inclined surface.
• Parallel line development – A pattern created by
drawing the edges of an object as parallel lines.
• Radial line development – A pattern created by
Types of Methods of development
3. Triangulation 4. Approximate
Method: Method:
This is generally used For Warped or Double
for polyhedron, single Curved Surfaces the
curved surfaces whose shapes obtained are
Surfaces must be only by approximate
