Introduction to Surfacing

The boundaries of the model shown in Figure 1–9 are
completely defined. Although the surfaces look like they form a
closed body surface, they still need to be joined before the solid
model is created.
Figure 1–9
Many surfaces might be required to achieve the required
geometry. For example, the geometry shown in Figure 1–9 was
created using eight surface features. In addition, operations such
as joining and trimming might be required.
Surface operations can be used to combine various surfaces into
one feature, correct overlap and improve connections between
surfaces, and move surfaces to different locations and
orientations. Basic surface operations include:
• Join
• Split
• Trim
• Extract
• Transform
Step 3 - Perform surface operations.
