LECTURE MATERIALS

In this course the basic surfaces such as the prismatic, cylindrical, pyramidal, conical and spherical surfaces are covered. Through this resource, we will be able to define and identify the basic surfaces and know the basic nomenclature.

Through this topic, we will be able to represent basic surfaces, both in favourable and non-favorable positions and to locate one point on the surface.

Through this topic, we will be able to foresee the geometrical shape that will result from sectioning a surface by a plane; determine the view that allows the simplest or most immediate geometric solution to be obtained; identify the highlights of the section; select the most appropriate plane to perform a section and usually, to develop skills to carry out graphic operations to resolve geometric problems where surfaces are involved.

Through this topic, we will be able to calculate the development of the developable surfaces studied in class and the transformation of those same surfaces; select the most appropriate graphic method for each case and in general, to develop skills to carry out graphic operations to resolve geometric problems where surfaces are involved.

Through this topic, we will be able to anticipate the geometric shape of the line that will result from the intersection of two surfaces; determinate the view that allows obtaining the simplest or most immediate geometric solution; identify the remarkable points of the intersection; select the most suitable planes to find an intersection and in general, to develop graphic operability in geometric problems where surfaces intervene.
