Centre of area
Posted: Sun Feb 15, 2015 8:57 pm
Hi Eric
One thing I have meant to ask you, is it possible for RealCADD to calculate the centre of area of a closed shape (regular and irregular)? Like an irregular polygon, or an object made from poly-lines.
I have to work out the weight and centre of gravity of every piece of structure, which is very very tedious. If I could get at the centre of area, then the rest is easy because they are most always made from constant thickness components.
Cheers
