INTERSECTION OF INCLINED CONICAL PLANES. APPLICATION OF TRADITIONAL METHODS

Abstract

One of the goals of teaching applied descriptive geometry to the students of Mechanical Engineering is the acquisition of knowledge and formation of skills in orthogonal projection of basic volumetric primitives and their intersection. The developed elements can be connected in various combinations whose diversity gives infinite opportunities predefined by the specific requirements of design and technology. Good knowledge of the properties and actual forms of different types of the geometrical bodies projected is the guarantee for their correct projecting. The paper presents the specifics of orthogonal projecting of inclined conical bodies and focuses on the relevance of traditional methods for finding the line of bodies’ intersection in space.
