safadif Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 will any body help to draw the following model in 3d autocad 2012 especially the rib a4v Model (1).pdf Quote
ReMark Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 I used the Region, PressPull, Subtract, Union and Slice commands. Not necessarily in that order to create this rough version of the object shown in your PFD. There are probably several other ways it could have been done. Quote
safadif Posted March 20, 2012 Author Posted March 20, 2012 thank you will you explain more i've tried wedge to draw rib but it does not work it does not reach the circle Quote
ReMark Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 I drew the "rib" as a triangle then extruded it. I used an extruded arc to trim it back (SLICE command) so it matched the curvature. Quote
ReMark Posted March 20, 2012 Posted March 20, 2012 (edited) How's it going there safadif? Done yet? Where's that image? Hmmmm.....no response. Guess he figured it out on his own. Edited March 21, 2012 by ReMark Quote
safadif Posted March 21, 2012 Author Posted March 21, 2012 thank you all i've tried that but i do not know how to slice it with arc Quote
ReMark Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 Extrude the arc. It becomes a surface. Use the Surface option of the SLICE command to trim back the front edge of the rib. Quote
JD Mather Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 thank you alli've tried that but i do not know how to slice it with arc When in doubt - attach the dwg file here. You will get more detailed help. Quote
ReMark Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 Maybe this image will help. I used a rectangular box instead of a triangular rib so you could see the result better. Both the rectangle and the arc are extruded. The box is a solid while the arc is a surface. I invoke the SLICE command and pick the object to slice. Then I use the SURFACE option and pick the extruded arc. I accept the option to retain both pieces of geometry (you don't necessarily have to do this) so each could be seen in this demonstration. Finally, I erase the geometry I don't need along with the extruded arc. Does this help at all? Here is what the inputs look like after invoking the SLICE command. Command: slice Select objects to slice: 1 found (the rectangle is picked) Select objects to slice: Specify start point of slicing plane or [planar Object/Surface/Zaxis/View/XY/YZ/ZX/3points] : s (the Surface option) Select a surface: (the extruded arc is picked) Select sliced object to keep or [keep Both sides] : (default is accepted) Any further questions?

ReMark Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 safadif: Did you finish your drawing? Can you post an image? Quote
GAcadman Posted March 24, 2012 Posted March 24, 2012 seems simple enough, I wonder if the Original Poster every finished his model Quote
JD Mather Posted March 24, 2012 Posted March 24, 2012 The assignment was probably due 30 minutes after original post (or more likely - the day before). Quote
