Hi Professor, I have a question about using AutoCAD for multi-view drawings. When I transcribe lines from the first view to use as reference lines for the new view, the Osnaps often select points like endpoints or midpoints along the reference line. However, I need to start my new line at a specific distance away from the original view that I have drawn. If I hold Shift, it turns off all Osnaps, causing the line to float left and right (of the reference line), and I have to zoom in a lot to Keep my tolerance. How can I snap to the vertical aspect of the reference line at a specific distance from another object without losing precision? Perhaps setting the first reference line based on the original vertical line and instead of running the first reference line long. I could simply type a distance approximately the same width of the drawn object and trim out the reference line is the answer. However, Is there a way to begin the drawing along the reference line without having to trim.

You could turn Ortho on (shortcut, F8), turn Dynamic Input on, and enter a distance. Or you could try the old-fashioned method of entering the first point, then typing @[x value],[y value]. To be honest, I often just use Offset and then Trim. Not the most efficient way, but it works.

Thanks you for sharing your knowledge, very well presented and extremely helpful. What is the guideline to define the minimum / maximum length of the keyway in the shaft. Does it depend of the diameter of the shaft? How does the length of the hub factors into it?
@margaretrobertson884818 күн бұрын
You are very welcome! Usually the keyway in the hub runs the whole length of the hub, because it's easier to cut, but I am not aware of any guidelines on length.

Mam, I am not a native American, but I have this stupid question: What is wrought iron, and what is cast iron? How do they differ? Thank you for the great and easy video on grades of material...
@margaretrobertson88483 ай бұрын
There is no such thing as a stupid question! Wrought iron and steel are both low carbon. Steel is iron + 0.5% to 1.5% carbon. Wrought iron has about 0.5% carbon and has a little bit of slag added, so that it is softer and can be "wrought" (i.e., hammered). It's not used so much anymore. (New products that are called "wrought iron" are often actually mild steel, just shaped to look like the old-time wrought iron pieces.) Cast iron has a higher carbon content: 3%-5%. It is brittle, not strong in tension but strong in compression. (It's similar to concrete, in that way.)

Do these evaporatize towers work in areas with high humidity in the air? A lot of these examples are deserts.
@margaretrobertson88483 ай бұрын
Good observation. Because warm air rises, this stack shape will still pull in cooler air and release warmer air out the top. (It's slow movement, however.) In dry climates, water can be inserted at the top of the tower, making a cooling tower, where it evaporates and then cooler air falls. So cool air is flowing down, rather than up.

Hello Margaret, thank you for lucid explanation. Really appreciate your work. I have a doubt. Flatness tolerance zone is two parallel planes seperated by flatness tolerance value and its location is not fixed. But where does the tol zone exactly lie? (since we dont have datum for it) In other words, in the table example, where does the top plane of tolerance zone lie? Lower plane will be at distance of tolerance value, but confused as where does the top plane lie. Hope you've understood what I am trying to ask.
@margaretrobertson88486 ай бұрын
Thank you, and you are welcome. Imagine the tolerance zone as a set of 2 sheets of clear glass, stuck together and floating in space. The set of 2 sheets of glass can be located anywhere and they can be tipped at any angle, as long as they are completely inside the size tolerance. In the table example, the top of the set of glass sheets could be located as high as 31". Or the bottom of the set of glass sheets could be located as low as 29". As long as they don't stick outside the size tolerance zone, they're correct. You're controlling only how flat is the surface, no matter how high or low it is and no matter at what angle it is oriented.
@adityabhargav18306 ай бұрын
@@margaretrobertson8848 Thank you for replaying. What I have understood is - Tol zone should not violate MMC /LMC boundary. But still my question is - where does top plane of tolerance lie in the available space? Is it like that top plane is tangential to topmost peaks of surface variations ( off course not violating MMC boundary) and lower plane is at distance of tol value from top plane. I have similar kind of query when we apply perpendicularity tolerance to surface. Here tol zone will be two parallel planes separated by tol value and perpendicular to given datum but again WHERE??

@@adityabhargav1830 Flatness controls form only; it doesn't have a datum. So the tol zone can lie ANYWHERE within the MMC/LMC boundary.

Thank you. You can always use regular dimensioning without GDT, like dimensioning an angle, and you can put a tolerance on your dimension or let it use the tolerance in the title block. But that gives you a fan-shaped tolerance zone. If you want better control across the whole surface, and with a tolerance zone that stays the same thickness throughout, you can add an angularity control.

You need to be in the kind of hot climate where it is markedly colder at night. So, a desert climate is perfect, and a tropical climate is not. It will work in a temperate climate, too, if the urban heat island effect isn't too great. Then you want thermal mass to absorb heat: concrete, stone, etc. Try doing an internet search under "night ventilation" or "night flushing." See if you can get "Heating, Cooling, Lighting: Sustainable Design Strategies, 5th ed." by Lechner from your library. It's super helpful.

Hi Margaret, if a feature was respected with a compound datum A-B, does that mean the feature needs to be within the tolerance zone from datum A and datum B at the same time ? The purpose of using datum A-B instead of using datum A and datum B separately is making sure neither of them has precedence over the other?
@margaretrobertson884810 ай бұрын
Yes. The two datums are used together is if they are all one datum. You can imagine a line that connects the centers of A and B, and that is in effect the datum. You use compound datums with parts that rotate. The inspector puts the part into an adjustable gage.

The problem (from a textbook, by Onouye) gives the dead loads of each kind of element in pounds per square foot. He is saying that if you look at a section of joists in this building, every square foot of that will weigh 3 pounds. You could think of the "joists" section as being a solid slab of joist material. The joists are 2 feet apart, so each lineal foot of joist carries TWO square feet of weight. You might want to have a look at the video "Struc24d load tracing - tributary area quiz;" at the beginning it might give a little more detailed explanation--for the rafters instead of the joists, but it is the same approach.

Bonus tolerance only happens when a geometric tolerance is applied at MMC, that is, when there is an M in the feature control frame. When an actual part is any size other than MMC, you get a bonus tolerance. The amount which the actual size departs from MMC is the amount of bonus tolerance you get.
