Surface Development
Surface
developments are required for the
manufacture of many engineering products.
Surface Development of a
Truncated Pyramid
A square pyramid
stands vertically on its
base on horizontal
plane with one edge on
the base to vertical
plane. Its front elevation
is cut by a plane at an
angle of 45° with hp.
Develop the surface of
the truncated pyramid.

Surface Development of a
Truncated Cone
A right cone vertically
stands on its base on
hp. Its front elevation is
cut by a plane of 45°
with hp. Develop the
curved surface of the
truncated cone.
