PROJECT BRIEF

The object of this exercise is to develop your drawing and presentation skills by selecting a simple assembly from the list below, or suggest another to me. Where possible you should try to obtain an item yourself, you may purchase/obtain one as a group to help split the cost. Car Foot Pump Piston, Con Rod, Crank Assy Hub Assembly Shock Absorber Assy. Cycle Bottom Bracket Brake Caliper Wankel Engine

Pipe Bender

Control Arm

If, for example, you decide to draw a shock absorber, it doesnt necessarily need to be from a car. Radio controlled cars use shock absorbers, so do pushbikes and motorcycles. Brake calipers are used on many devices, as are pistons and cranks. So please avoid taking your car apart, and/or complaining you cant measure the shock properly on one of our vehicles as theres a wheel in the way. Do a bit of research!!!
RULE AND REGULATIONS

All drawings are to be drawn on A3 paper folded correctly as per instructions in the back of Technical Drawing Guide on Moodle. Marks will be lost if they are not. Projects to be presented in A4 folder as specified on Moodle. All drawings to use BS8888 technical drawing standard. Projects are strictly individual but you may purchase items in small groups to alleviate the cost. No items are to be removed from Alma Labs. Consult with Development Officer if you would like to use an automotive component, as they may be being stored for projects elsewhere in the University. Do not take one off a shelf assuming it is not being used.

WHAT YOU SHOULD SUBMIT

-Cover Page -Contents -An introduction to the selected product including photos, sketches and an understanding of its usage and materials with appropriate references from books and journals, do not just use internet references (500 words). -Detailed hand drawn 2D orthographic drawing of 1 components (One page = one component). -One Isometric drawing of the entire assembly, CAD or hand drawn (all components in assembly, not just the 1 above). -One Isometric drawing of the exploded components, CAD or hand drawn (all components in assembly, not just the 1 above) (Optional) Bill of Materials (Google this!!) Overall presentation and structure of report must be of suitable standard as marks will be lost for unsatisfactory and poor presentation.

TO ACHIEVE HIGHER MARKS.

All documents should be referenced correctly using CU Harvard style (See Moodle). 2D drawings could include a suitable, necessary detail drawing ( ie, not just one for the sake of trying to obtain more marks, it has to be there for a reason) A necessary section drawing (Google the word necessary). Show evidence of practicing in an appendix. Use a BS8888 recommended scales. Show evidence of having studied BS8888. Use correct lines and linetypes. Third angle symbol present on border. Border correct. Dimensioned efficiently and thoughtfully (find examples in library to learn from) Folded correctly. You are unlikely to become a high level draftsperson overnight, this is a task that must be practiced and developed so allow yourself the time and space to develop this skill. Your first attempt need not be the one you eventually hand in. As an engineer you will be constantly required to prepare or read draft drawings, so the more time you spend on it, the clearer it becomes. In using CAD you must allow yourself the time to model the product as well, so it wont necessarily (note Google the word, necessarily) be easier or quicker to use CAD.
