Drawing Practice
Number of views l as many as necessary to fully define the component/product
m

do NOT default to 3 views

Hidden detail l only if required, try to avoid


m

e.g. use extra view, section

Course work - team


As a team submit - for week 11 l assembly drawing of your design to BS 308
m

identify parts with balloons

include limits and fits of mating parts (e.g. gear/shaft) to BS 4500


m

correct designation required on the drawing must tie up with assembly drawing do NOT submit the detail cost calculations

l l

parts list
m

cost estimation sheet


m

Drawing to be done on CAD

Course work - individual


Each team member is to submit - for week 12 l a detail engineering drawing to BS 308 of a rotational part (e.g. gear, shaft) l include linear and angular dimensions to BS 308
m m

include BS4500 designation and numerical tolerances for features which form part of a fit other tolerances are not required

l l

drawing to be done on CAD cost calculations for this part


m

include all working in the following order


l l

material cost machining time (including a discontinuity sheet) labour cost overhead cost total cost
