offsets

[peter radclyffe]

thanks Tad

[peter radclyffe]

perhaps my offsets are wrong, this is not the shape of turn of bilge

[Tad]

Here's the lines drawing from that surface....

[Tad]

Not necessarily wrong, just that you provided no info below that -1 waterline. Thus as the drawing below shows....all guessing below that lower offset.

The red spline is about what you see above, the blue spline also goes through the same offset points....just has a completely different shape. This is the designers problem...how to transmit enough data to build the shape you intend....traditional offset tables work....another (lower) waterline would help

sorry Tad, i have the rabbet & sheer heights, i have to type them

[Guest62110524]

Peter, sorry could not assist more
I dont know how to extract either so what I do is section the lines in rhino, at each frame station, draw the structure and just measure the frame at wl,s, buttocks, sheer, and or chines if any
Do you have R4?
best Stu
and if Tad OR ANYONE could show me how to call offsets from R4 ORMaxsurf, that,d be wonderful

[peter radclyffe]

i dont have r 4, i shall look at it, thanks Stu

[peter radclyffe]

hi Tad, did you get the heights

[Tad]

Peter,

I've been on the road for a few days, just back and catching up...I'll look at this again over the weekend.

[Tad]

Model revised with -2 waterline....
