THE SUBJECT OF LAYING OUT The work of laying out in a boiler shop consists of firstdetermining from blue prints or drawings the true size andshape of the plates, bars, etc., of which an object is to beconstructed, and of then marking out on the material itself tothese dimensions the lines on which it is to be cut and necessitates on the part of the layer out a knowledge ofsome of the more common problems in plane geometry, suchas are ordinarily used in drafting; a knowlerdge of that partof descriptive geometry which deals with the development ofthe surfaces of solids of all kinds; and an intimate knowledgeof the behavior of the material which
