Hello all, this is my first post so please let me know if im doing anything wrong or you have questions.
This is an engineering drawing I've been given, and tasked with calculating the many un-specified dimensions, before fabricating it from 3mm thick steel. It is a seed hopper for the back of a tractor and is made up of a square base, four modified triangles a tube coming out of the centre and a flange on top.
I've retained a limited knowledge of SOHCAHTOA which has helped me to a point, but now I'm strugling to see my next move. Especially when it comes to finding the length or the angle (radius?) of a curved line.
These are my calculations so far.
The lengths I most want to understand are labelled T and S (Closeup drawing)?
