1. INTRODUCTION
Safety precaution
Safety describes that it is the way of doing work
correctly to prevent accident.
It can be defined as the way of prevention of
accidents.
The prevention of accident concerns
The work man (operator) and his partner
The work piece
The working tool
the work shop

2. Causes of accidents
Faulty attitude towards safety
Emotions (anger, worry, excitements…)
The other causes of accident are not to take safety as a
way of life.
General safety measures
Dress correctly (wear apron, short sleeved beltless
coats).
Remove rings, wrist watches, necklaces, bra- slates.
Protect your eyes
No horse play
No scrap materials on the flour
Take care of injuries 2

3. MEASUREMENT
o Measurement is the process of determining or
finding the size, quantity or degree of something .
o The principle dimensional measurement is length;
secondary measurement is angle and curvature.
You can describe shape without describing size, but
not the reverse.
o Measurement science is vital for trade &commerce
,&the basis of modern science& technology.

4. MEANS OF MEASUREMENT
The means of measurement could be classified as
follows:
I. Standards (reference masters or setting standards)-
these are used to reproduce one or several definite
values of a given quantity.
II. Fixed gauges-these are used to check the
dimensions, form, and position of product features.
III. Measuring instrument-these are used to determine
the values of the measured quantity.

VERNIER CALIPER
Function
To measure smaller distances
Can measure up to .001 inch or .01mm.
Features
Larger, lower jaws are designed to measure outer points e.g.
diameter of a rod.
Top jaws are designed to measure inside points e.g. size of a hole.
A rod extends from the rear of the caliper and can be used to
measure the depth.

STRUCTURE OF THE VERNIER CALIPER
Main Scale
Main scale is graduated in cm and mm.
Vernier Scale
It slides on the main scale.
On Vernier scale 0.9cm is divided into 10 equal parts.
Jaws
Two inside jaws (Upper)
Two outside jaws (Lower)

LEAST COUNT
Least count (L.C) is the smallest reading we can
measure with the instrument.
L.C = one main scale division – one
vernier scale division
L.C = 1mm – 0.09mm
L.C = 0.1mm = 0.01cm
Least Count = Value of the smallest division on MS/
Total number of division on VS
L.C = 1mm / 10 = 0.1 cm / 10 = 0.01cm
16. HOW TO USE VERNIER CALIPER?
Close the jaws
Calculate the least count
Place the object between the
two jaws
Record the position of zero
of Vernier scale on the Main
scale (3.2cm)
Notice the reading of VS
which coincides with MS
reading (3rd division in this
case)

READING OF THE INSTRUMENT
Reading of the instrument = MS div +
(coinciding VS div x L.C)
= 3.2 + (3 x 0.01)
= 3.2 + 0.03
= 3.23 cm

TO MEASURE THE DEPTH
A rod extends from the rear of the caliper and can be used to
measure the depth.
Open the jaws of caliper and place the rod inside hole of the
object, such as the rod reaches the inner most portion of the
object.
Read the Vernier caliper. (same procedure as described in
previous slides)

22. EXAMPLE 1: The external measurement (diameter) of a round section piece of steel is
measured using a vernier caliper, metric scale.
A. The main metric scale is read first and this shows that there are 13 whole divisions
before the 0 on the hundredths scale. Therefore, the first number is 13.
B. The’ hundredths of mm’ scale is then read. Only one division on the main metric
scale lines up with a division on the hundredths scale below it, whilst others do not. In
the example below, the 41st division on the hundredths scale lines up exactly with a
division on the metric scale above.
C. This 41 is multiplied by 0.02 giving 0.82 as the answer (each division on the
hundredths scale is equivalent to 0.02mm).
D. The 13 and the 0.82 are added together to give the final measurement of 13.82mm
(the diameter of the piece of round section steel).

31. Laying out is the process of scribing lines, points and arcs on to
the metal to indicate the shape and size of the object or it is
transforming the drawing of the object to be made on to the metal.
Accuracy of a layout is very important to the accuracy of the
finished product.
Good layout will entail the proper and careful use of all layout
tools.

38. • For the correct location and setting of the
divider legs, prick punch marks of 30º are
used.
• Both the legs of the divider should always
be of equal length.
• Dividers are specified by the type of their
joints and length.
• The divider point should be kept sharp in
order to produce fine lines. Frequent
sharpening with an oil stone is better than
sharpening by grinding. Sharpening by
grinding will make the points soft.

40. CALIPER:- Calipers are simple measuring intstrument
used to transfer measurement from steel rule to objects
and vice versa. They are made from tools steel or high
carbon steel.
CALIPER
1. Firm joint caliper:- In the case of firm joint
caliper, both legs are pivoted at one end.
To take measurement of a work piece, the
caliper is opened roughly to the required
size. Fine setting is done by tapping the
caliper lightly on a wooden surface.

41. 2. Spring joint caliper:- For this type of
caliper, the legs are assembled by means of
a pivot loaded with a spring. For opening
and closing the caliper legs, a screw and nut
are provided.
Spring joint caliper have the advantage
of quick setting. The setting made will not
change unless the nut is turned. The size of
caliper is specified by its length, which is
the distance between the pivot centre and
the tip of the leg.

drawing parallel lines along outer edges, scribing lines
along curved edges.

46. Blade
The blade is designed to allow the different heads to slide along the blade
and be clamped at any desired location. The groove in the blade is
concave to eliminate dirt buildup and permit a free and easy slide for the
heads. By removing all the heads, the blade may be used alone as a rule.
Square Head
The square head is designed with a 45° and 90° edge, which makes it
possible to be used as a try square and miter square. By extending the
blade below the square, it can be used as a depth rule. The square head
can also be used as a level.

47. Bevel Protractor
The protractor head is equipped
with a revolving turret graduated in
degrees from 0 to 180 or to 90 in
either direction. It is used to
measure or lay out angles to an
accuracy of 0.5°.
Center Head
The center head, when inserted on
the blade, is used to locate and lay
out the center of cylindrical work
pieces.
