2.5 Construction Sequence

2.5.1 Cutting of Body Parts


First, use a pencil, ruler and compass to measure and mark out the lines that
need to be cut on the wood according to the dimensions.
Next, use backsaw to cut the wood into different shapes and sizes. Use a
coping saw to cut curves in wood especially for Part B3, B4, B5 and wheels (refer
to drawings EFPC-7D-AWD-006, EFPC-7D-AWD-011, EFPC-7D-AWD-012
and EFPC-7D-AWD-013).
Use an electric hand drill or drill press to drill holes according to different
diameters on Part C1, C2, D, E1, G, H and wheels (refer to drawings EFPC-7D-
AWD-006, EFPC-7D-AWD-017, EFPC-7D-AWD-018, EFPC-7D-AWD-020,

31
EFPC-7D-AWD-023, EFPC-7D-AWD-025 and EFPC-7D-AWD-027). Make sure
the holes are all drilled perpendicularly down.
For Part E1 and G which have shapes in the middle of the wood (refer to
drawings EFPC-7D-AWD-023 and EFPC-7D-AWD-027), cut them with the
coping saw by first drilling a hole within the boundaries. Then undo the saw blade
from the copping saw and run the blade through the hole. After that redo the blade
onto the saw and cut saw the wood as usual within the boundaries.

2.5.2 Assembly of Body Parts of Car

2.5.2.1 Part B
Wood glue is needed in this part to glue the sub-parts of Part B (i.e.
Part B1, B2, B3, B4, B5 and B6) as a holder of bottle cap.

Firstly, clean off any debris on the gluing surface (i.e. saw dust and
etc.) using a sandpaper. After that start by gluing sub-part B5, B4 and B3
together in the order of (from bottom) B5, B4, B4, and B3. Make sure the
centre cut-off area is aligned properly. Next, glue both of the sub-parts B2
onto the top and at the shorter edges of B3 (refer to drawing EFPC-7D-
AWD-008). After that, glue both of the sub-parts B1 onto the top of B2.
Lastly, glue sub-part B6 onto B5. Apply glue on B5. Align all the pieces
properly as shown in drawing EFPC-7D-AWD-008. If possible, clamp the
glued pieces using a clamp with sacrificial wood on both ends and let it
cure. Recommended curing time is 24 hours.

2.5.2.2 Part C
Use wood glue to glue Part C2 to Part C1. Make sure C2 is aligned
properly to one end of C1 (refer to drawings EFPC-7D-AWD-015 for right
side and EFPC-7D-AWD-016 for left side of the car). Let it dry for at least
an hour.

2.5.2.3 Part E
Glue another piece of Part C2 on Part E1 with wood glue. Make sure
C2 is aligned properly to the end of E1 which has no hole (refer to
drawings EFPC-7D-AWD-021 for right side and EFPC-7D-AWD-022 for
left side of the car). Let it dry for at least an hour.

Use wood glue to stick two pieces of same dimension wood from Part
E2 which have aligned properly together and let it dry, referring to
drawing EFPC-7D-AWD-024. Place E2 into the hole on the other side of
E1 which C2 is not glued onto and then glue them with wood glue. Make
sure the one side of E2 is not coming out from another side of E1 as shown
in drawings EFPC-7D-AWD-021 and EFPC-7D-AWD-022.

32
2.5.3 Assembly of Body of Car
First and foremost, fasten Part C2 and D with a nail (Part C3) on the upper
part using a hammer and a screw on the lower part of D using a driller as shown in
drawings EFPC-7D-AWD-001 and EFPC-7D-AWD-020. Repeat the previous step for
Part C2 which has glued with E1 and H, referring to drawings EFPC-7D-AWD-001
and EFPC-7D-AWD-025.
Attach and use wood glue to glue the end of Part C1 that has a hole to the end
of Part B4 as shown in drawing EFPC-7D-AWD-001. Make sure Part C2 and D
which has glued on C1 are facing outward of the car.
Use wood glue to glue each end of Part G to the side of E2. Make sure they are
aligned properly (refer to drawing EFPC-7D-AWD-002).
Glue one end of Part F on the top of the glued part of E2 and G. Then, glue
another end of the same Part F onto the top of B4 next to B3. Then, glue one end of
another piece of Part F on the lower part of E2 and G. Also, glue another end of Part F
underneath B4 next to B5. Repeat the previous steps for another side of the car (refer
to drawings EFPC-7D-AWD-001 and EFPC-7D-AWD-002).
Next, place the wheels in between Part C1 and D and between Part E1 and H.
Use axles to fix the wheels on their sides as shown in drawing EFPC-7D-AWD-001.
Lastly, place Part A in between Part B1 and B3 as shown in drawing EFPC-
7D-AWD-001.

4.0 Tender Evaluation Criteria
The three tendering companies will be evaluated fairly according to the evaluation
criteria that we had provided. AWD Inc. is searching for competent tenders who meet the
vital necessity to build the prototype car and persistently upgrade the current prototype
design, in order to create the ideal product that can be achieved to meet our clients
expectations. The prototype will be built according on the design specification so that the
prototype can work at its highest degree.
Our companys designers will assess the tenders against each criterion listed based to
the expectations and requirement of AWD Inc. All the potential tenders will be evaluated
against each sections criterion. Each criterion carries about 20% marks, where all five
criteria will total up to 100%. All the tendering companies should aim to score above 75%, or
else they will not be given the contract to build the prototype car. The prototype car design
will be given to the company who score the highest overall marks.

4.1 Marking Criteria

4.1.1 Experience
Due to the nature of this job, the tendering company should have staff on hand with
capable knowledge in woodworking and/or building experience. Specifically, the knowledge
of using tools such as saw/jigsaw, drills/drill press etc. . Other than that, if possible, the
tendering company is able suggest a better process for building the prototype with no
significant design change.

4.1.2 Teamwork and Communication
In a cross-company relationship, teamwork plays an important role to achieve superb
performance. Thus, the tendering company must be able to collaborate well and work
progressively with our designers so that the end product would meet the required calibre and
stature. Moreover, tenders should also be able to interact with our designer with fluent
English language. They also should be able to provide quick and prompt responses when e-
mails and text messages are sent to the tendering company.

4.1.3 Interpretation of Design


Tendering company must be able to interpret the vehicle design and construct the
design in accordance to the specification of AWD Inc. The main points of specific details
such as the drawing and specifications will probably be discussed in depth during the
meeting. Besides, tenders should be able to give recommendations about the designs and
predict obstacle that might occur during the construction process. Moreover, tenders may also
brainstorm some ideas that could help in improving the designs.

4.1.4 Cost and Resources
For this criterion, the tendering company will be evaluated in accordance to how well
they supervise their budget and not overspend in constructing this prototype car. Our
designers would prefer that the tendering company that spend the lowest amount of money
spent in constructing this prototype car as our designers will be supplying most of the
material required for the prototype car, so the total cost should not exceed RM30 limit.
Furthermore, tenders should be able to access the suitable resource for the prototype car. If a
recycled material is used, it will be a bonus as it will reduce the total cost required for the
prototype car.

4.1.5 Punctuality
One of the vital principles to thrive in constructing prototype car is punctuality. We
need contractors who always attend all the meetings on time or a five minutes earlier before
the meetings occurs with our company. By doing so, it will show that the company is
professional in handling tasks. If the members of the tendering company are unable to make
it, or might be late for the meeting, they should inform AWD Inc. at most an hour before the
meeting start.
