Parallel line development is a drafting and fabrication technique to create patterns for objects with parallel features, such as ducts, pipes, and prisms. It involves projecting lines from a base shape to develop an unfolded or flat pattern that can be cut and formed into the desired three-dimensional shape. This method is advantageous in sheet metal work, where accuracy ensures proper assembly and fit. By maintaining consistent spacing between projection lines, parallel line development ensures that dimensions remain proportional, simplifying the process of cutting and bending materials. This technique is often applied in the design of ventilation systems, structural components, and industrial enclosures.
