Required Information
- Height
- True height
Formulas and Measurements
- Mark the true height on the right vertical line Trisect the bottom right quarter circle into equal parts and label Set dividers at Point A and Point 1 and swing an arc from the Base Line to the right vertical line.
- Points 1 and 4 intersect as do Points 2 and Set dividers at Point S and Point 4 and transfer to the horizontal line going from bottom right Point A to the left.
- These will be the slant heights For the Stretch-out, draw a line the exact length of a square side and label both Points A From the Plan View, set dividers at the Apex and Points 1- 4 on the horizontal line.
- Transfer these points to the layout from both Points A to an intersecting point on the Layout to form Point 1 on the Layout Using a second pair of dividers, take a set from 1 to 2 on the quarter circle of the Plan View and on the Layout draw arcs to both sides of From the Plan View, set dividers at the Apex and Point 2-3 on the horizontal line and transfer them to the Layout from both A Points to intersect with last arcs drawn Do the same to obtain Points 3 and 4 on the Layout From Points A, draw arcs to either side using half the distance of a square side From the Plan View set dividers at the Apex and the S-4 Point and from the 4 Points on the Layout draw intersecting arcs to the last arcs drawn.
Procedure
- Step 1
Draw a Plan View and letter as shown. Mark the true height on the right vertical line
- Step 2
Trisect the bottom right quarter circle into equal parts and label
- Step 3
Set dividers at Point A and Point 1 and swing an arc from the Base Line to the right vertical line. Do the same for Point 2. Points 1 and 4 intersect as do Points 2 and
- Step 4
Set dividers at Point S and Point 4 and transfer to the horizontal line going from bottom right Point A to the left. Label the points on the horizontal line as shown
- Step 5
Draw lines from the Apex (true height point) to all points on the horizontal line. These will be the slant heights
- Step 6
For the Stretch-out, draw a line the exact length of a square side and label both Points A
- Step 7
From the Plan View, set dividers at the Apex and Points 1- 4 on the horizontal line. Transfer these points to the layout from both Points A to an intersecting point on the Layout to form Point 1 on the Layout
- Step 8
Using a second pair of dividers, take a set from 1 to 2 on the quarter circle of the Plan View and on the Layout draw arcs to both sides of
- Step 9
From the Plan View, set dividers at the Apex and Point 2-3 on the horizontal line and transfer them to the Layout from both A Points to intersect with last arcs drawn
- Step 10
Do the same to obtain Points 3 and 4 on the Layout
- Step 11
From Points A, draw arcs to either side using half the distance of a square side
- Step 12
From the Plan View set dividers at the Apex and the S-4 Point and from the 4 Points on the Layout draw intersecting arcs to the last arcs drawn. These points will be Points S on the Layout
- Step 13
Connect all the points to form half the fitting
- Step 14
Add for laps and notches where required. NTS
