Introduction to course and engineering drawing basics.

To understand how the course is assessed, what you will learn about and what skills you will develop. To understand the aim of the first practice project and what you will learn during this project To know what an ORTHOGRAPHIC drawing is, and the difference between 1 st angle and 3 rd angle drawings – to also know the correct symbol for both To know how to label linear dimensions, diameters and angles to British Standards for drawing and to have practised this.

To know what an ORTHOGRAPHIC drawing is, and the difference between 1 st angle and 3 rd angle drawings – to also know the correct symbol for both

To know how to label linear dimensions, diameters and angles to British Standards for drawing and to have practised this.

The course is assessed in 4 parts. In year 10: Unit A541: Introduction to designing and making – Design and make a product from a theme - Worth 30% overall In Year 11: Unit A542: Sustainable design – External Exam worth 20% overall Unit A543: Making quality products – Designing and making a product from a theme – 30% overall Unit A544: Technical aspects of designing and making – External Exam worth 20% overall

How to design, draw, model and annotate drawings using traditional hand techniques How to do the same using modern 3D CAD packages – 3D modelling The properties and uses of many engineering materials including ferrous and non ferrous metals, thermoforming and thermosetting plastics, composites materials and adhesive chemicals How to work with these materials using a range of workshop tools and processes including: Lathes Milling machines Pillar Drill Hand tools (various) Welding Brazing / Silver soldering Casting Thermoforming (plastics) Basically lots of stuff that involves fire and cool machines!

How to create the best products possible by following the design process – you will learn skills in research, task analysis, idea generation, development, planning and evaluation to assist you with your ‘controlled assessment’ How modern manufacturing and engineering companies work What CAD is, and the benefits to engineering and manufacturing What CAM is, and how computer controlled machinery is used in modern industry. This course will give you skills and a qualification that will allow you to progress onto many different careers or further education in: Civil engineering, manufacturing, mechanical engineering, product design, material science as well as apprenticeships in trades such as joinery, plumbing, fabrication, welding, motor mechanics.

This is a simple introduction project to teach you several workshop and engineering skills: The project will last until ½ term – You will learn: How to model a simple product in 3D using CAD software and produce a drawing from it How to manufacture the ‘spinner’ using the following metal working skills: Advanced marking out techniques Work by wasting – sawing / filing / polishing Lathe machinery – producing round metal parts Accurate drilling using pillar drill Metal Joinery using Brazing.

Imagine a 3D model of a product... In this case a clock. In real life you can look at it from different views – Front, Side and Plan

Plan Elevation Front Elevation Side Elevation An ORTHOGRAPHIC drawing shows ALL 3 of these at once.

The ‘plan’ or birdseye view is on the RIGHT – Less common The ‘plan’ or birdseye view is on the LEFT – Most common and the type we use. IMPORTANT: - ALWAYS draw the appropriate symbol on your drawings, in both the coursework and exams – there are marks for this!

On the sheet given to you, use the knowledge you have just learned about ‘annotating engineering drawings’ to label this correctly.

Pick a simple object from around your home that has mainly straight edges, but also some round features and maybe angles. Try and sketch it in a 1 st angle projective style with PLAN, SIDE and FRONT elevations. Annotate it with dimensions, materials, angles and diameters as shown. H.L does count towards your reported grade! – it is part of my assessment of your ability and attitude to the subject – however you will not be punished for not doing it in line with new college policy.
