Family C6
Generalities

Family C6 can be divided into several sub families.

The first important division: folded forms called PLIO and non-folded forms called PLIN.


The second subdivision concerns the radius angle:
Counted horizontally: RAYH Counted frontally: RAYF
The third subdivision concerns the edge angles as in Family C3 :
Horizontally projected edge : RIVH Frontally projected edge : RIVF
The following drawings explain this classification system better than words.
