The document outlines 16 steps to develop a hexagonal pyramid with a hole from its front, top, and side views. It involves drawing the base and hole, identifying cut edges, finding true lengths, plotting edges on an arc representing the slant height, and transferring cutting points and edges to the unfolded development. Careful naming and measuring is required to avoid errors in the developed figure. Additional practice is recommended to fully understand the process.
11. Step 5
• To get additional cutting points for getting an
effective figure, we are drawing additional two
edges.
• The edges are tangential to the hole.
• Note: This step provides additional cutting points
so that development can be drawn correctly.
23. Step 11
• Similarly plot other edges on the arc and join them
so that all base edges are plotted.
26. Step 12
• Now focus on front and top views.
• The edges drawn on front view are plotted on top
view.
• Check the images and mark all the edges correctly.
• Take care to mark the edges neatly so that figure is
not too complex.
29. Step 13
• Those edges are plotted on to the development.
• For this, select the distance on top view, that
means, select distance 'a - g' on top view and mark
on development to get 'A - G'.
• Similarly do for other edges.
33. Step 14
• Now the axis of the pyramid is also get cut by the
hole.
• Name those edges in top view and on
development.
36. Step 15
• Next we have to plot the cutting points on to
development.
• Select point 9'. It is cut on axis. We need its true
height where the point is cut.
• O - a' is true length. So draw a horizontal line from
9' to slant height O - a' and mark 9''.
38. Step 16
• Take the length O - 9'' and plot on development.
• It is cut on axis edge which is represented on
development as O - O1 and O - O2.
40. Step 16
• Similarly take true length of the cutting points as
done in previous slide and mark them on
development.
46. Comments
• Draw very carefully
• Mistakes in naming will result in a wrong figure
• Any missing edge or corner can be assumed.
• Must practice and study.
