Both considered „transitional“ areas are specifically defined to mean that only the (infinite) forming lines will always be vertical. The geometric formations described above can be found in modern architecture in the context of mass-mounting stages, pedestals of statues, etc. Dva geometrické příklady „přechodových“ ploch v architektuře Keywords: conical developable surface, surface undevelopable, conoid, ruled surfaces, pedestals and sheating surfaces, kuželové plochy rozvinutelné, nerozvinutelné plochy, konoidy, přímkové plochy, piedestaly a jejich plášťové plochy Journal: Littera Scripta Volume: 4 Issue: 1 Year: 2011 Month: May DOI: 10.36708/LS.2011.I01.015 File-URL: https://littera-scripta.com/articles/two-geometric-examples-of-transitional-areas-in-architecture-89bc1b6c File-Format: text/html Handle: RePEc:rsg:littra:2011-015
