How do illustrate a set down transformation piece from a top elavation in a drwaing

[ReMark]

Welcome to the CADTutor forum keithozim.

Just to clarify your question, you want to draw a step-down transformation in plan view, correct? Are you going from a square or rectangle duct down to a circular duct? A little more detail would be appreciated. Thank you.

[keithozim]

I am going from rectangular to rectangular duct.

I would draw it with the larger rectangle shown as a solid line and the smaller rectangle as a dashed line. Something like this:

8082

I don't normally draw ductwork so if I am wrong I ask that someone correct me. Thanks.

If the duct is "stepping down" as in changing elevations within the transition, then you note it - don't sorry about displaying it. Attached is an example with elevation notes to clarify. :)

I totally got that wrong.:oops: Thanks for educating both of us Styk. I thought he had one duct under the other. Ohhh...back to school I go.:(

[StykFacE]

haha, not a problem Mark. This is my trade, so naturally I will know the answer. I'm still not sure of his exact question, because its still a bit unclear, but I think I answered what he's after. We will see if he posts back. :)

Styk: The numbers in the boxes, are they the elevation notes? If so, how are they read?

[StykFacE]

Top of the box is the top height of the duct A.F.F. Bottom box is the bottom height of the duct A.F.F.

the duct size (ie: 36x24) is always 36" wide by 24" tall. :)

Thanks for the lesson Styk. Now I know why you're called DUCTMAN.

This exact post was in the LISP forum not too long ago - a spammer me thinks...

Lee: What are you doing up so late?

[Lee Mac]

I don't know really, I really should be in bed - got a 9am lecture tomorrow morning as well... just thought I'd browse the forums for a bit :)

[Lee Mac]

Just been listening to Sting singing "I'll be wrapped around your finger...." (thought I'd look up your sig...) :P

[ReMark]

Well good night. Get some shut eye or you'll be dozing in class instead. See ya.

[ReMark]

Really...stop listening to Sting and go...to...bed.

[Lee Mac]

Haha, no change there then :P
