Redundant frames refer to redundant or unnecessary frames in a drawing. These frames are typically ignored by the drawing software and do not contribute to the final drawing. They are mostly present for organizational or aesthetic purposes.
Redundant frames can be:
Drawn multiple times with different attributes: For example, a frame might be drawn with different line styles, colors, or fill patterns.
Drawn with overlapping shapes: For example, a frame might be drawn within the shape of a flower.
Drawn with different coordinates: For example, a frame might be positioned off-center or have different scale factors.
Examples:
In a structural analysis drawing, redundant frames can be used to represent the different components of a structure, such as the frame members, connectors, and supports.
In a geometric drawing, redundant frames can be used to create patterns or designs, such as repeating sets of lines or shapes.
In a technical drawing, redundant frames can be used to indicate different views or sections of a drawing.
Consequences of ignoring redundant frames:
They do not affect the accuracy or completeness of the drawing.
They can clutter the drawing and make it more difficult to understand.
They can sometimes create inconsistencies in the drawing.
Note: Redundant frames are often used in conjunction with other drawing techniques, such as hatching, stippling, and shading
