The development of surfaces is very important in the fabrication of articles made of sheet metal. The objects such as containers, boxes, boilers, hoppers, vessels, funnels, trays etc., are made of sheet metal by using the principle of development of surfaces. In making the development of a surface, an opening of the surface should be determined first. Every line used in making the development must represent the true length of the line (edge) on the object. “The development of surface of an object means the unrolling and unfolding of all surfaces of the object on a plane.” “If the surface of a solid is laid out on a plain surface, the shape thus obtained is called the development of that solid.” In other words, the development of a solid is the shape of a plain sheet that by proper folding could be converted into the shape of the concerned solid. Importance of Development: Knowledge of development is very useful in sheet metal work, construction of storage vessels, chemical vessels, boilers, and chimneys. Such vessels are manufactured from plates that are cut according to these developments and then properly bend into desired shaped. The joints are then welded or riveted. Principle of Development: Every line on the development should show the true length of the corresponding line on the surface which is developed. Objective in this topic: To learn methods of development of surfaces of different solids, their sections and frustums. Methods of Development The method to be followed for making the development of a solid depends upon the nature of its lateral surfaces. Based on the classification of solids, the following are the methods of development.

Parallel-line Development It is used for developing prisms and single curved surfaces like cylinders/prism in which all the edges / generators of lateral surfaces are parallel to each other. 2. Radial-line Development It is employed for pyramids and single curved surfaces like cones in which the apex is taken as centre and the slant edge or generator (which are the true lengths)as radius for its development. 3. Triangulation method: This is generally used for polyhedron, single curved surfaces, and warped surfaces. 4. Approximate development: In this, the shapes obtained are only approximate. After joining, the part is stretched or distorted to obtain the final shape Parallel-line developments are made from common solids that are composed of parallel lateral edges or elements. e.g. Prisms and cylinders The cylinder is positioned such that one element lies on the development plane. The cylinder is then unrolled until it is flat on the development plane. The base and top of the cylinder are circles, with a circumference equal to the length of the development. All elements of the cylinder are parallel and are perpendicular to the base and the top.
- 3. 2022 ENGINEERING GRAPHICS /DEVELOPMENTOFSURFACES/I-SEM/RGM Page 3 When cylinders are developed, all elements are parallel and any perpendicular section appears as a stretch-out line that is perpendicular to the elements. Developments of objects with parallel elements or parallel lateral edges begins by constructing a stretch-out line that is parallel to a right section of the object and is therefore, perpendicular to the elements or lateral edges. Radial-line developments are made from figures such as cones and pyramids. In the development, all the elements of the figure become radial lines that have the vertex as their origin. The cone is positioned such that one element lies on the development plane. The cone is then unrolled until it is flat on the development plane. One end of all the elements is at the vertex of the cone. The other ends describe a curved line.

Triangulation developments are made from polyhedrons, single curved surfaces, and wrapped surfaces. The development involve subdividing any ruled surface into a series of triangular areas. If each side of every triangle is true length, any number of triangles can be connected into a flat plane to form a development Triangulation for single curved surfaces increases in accuracy through the use of smaller and more numerous triangles. Triangulation developments of wrapped surfaces produces only approximate of those surfaces. Approximate developments are used for double curved surfaces, such as spheres. Approximate developments are constructed through the use of conical sections of the object.Approximate developments the material of the object is then stretched through various machine applications to produce the development of the object.
