Rationalizing Surfaces

You can divide a range of surfaces (planar, ruled surfaces, revolved surfaces, and double-curved surfaces) to rationalize the surface into parametric buildable components.

Use the following workflow to rationalize a surface.

  1. Divide the surface. See Dividing a Surface with UV Grids.
  2. Pattern the surface. See Patterning Surfaces.
  3. The surface is divided with UV grids by default. Apply a pattern component family. See Pattern Component Families.
