Jagadeep.M.M
AIM:
- Create the geometries from P1 to P2 using all the coordinates system methods.
- Create the geometries from P4 to P10 using any one coordinates systeem methods.
- Draw the profile and the trusses using any coordinate system methods.
Introduction:
Coordinate system:
There are 3 coordinate systems
- Absolute coordinate system:Plotting point with respect to origin.
- Relative coordinate system:Plotting next point with respect to previous point.
Relative rectangular coordinate system
Relative polar coordinate system
3. Direct distance entry system:Plotting next point by positioning the cursor in desired direction & mentioning the distance directly.
