Develop industry standard mechanical drawings.

Indicators for this outcome
(a) Research and describe characteristics of various types of drawings (e.g., manufacturing drawings, assembly drawings, general arrangement drawings, working drawings, part drawings, weldment drawings, forming drawings, profile drawings, burning drawings).
(b) Determine the optimal number of views required to represent each part of a specific mechanical object.
(c) Determine the types of views (e.g., section view, detail view, auxiliary view) and the number of views required to describe each part of a specific mechanical object accurately, paying attention to the assembly order and function of parts.
(d)

Produce simple working drawings for mechanical projects that include:

  • drawing and dimensioning each part;
  • laying out the parts effectively in a title block;
  • drawing an assembly drawing that shows all the parts;
  • labelling parts and including general notes, when necessary; and,
  • creating a parts list or a bill of material.
