Introduction to Engineering Design lesson for Wednesday Decembeer 18, 2013

Instructions: Complete problems 9 and 10 below using  multi-view paper and a pencil. Make sure that you align all your views and copy all the work as shown. Add color to to your drawings the same way that you have done for problems 1 to 8. Put your completed drawings in your portfolio's at the end of class. This work will be checked on Thursday December 19, 2013 (tomorrow!!)

Problem #9: Copy the isometric as shown and then complete the three views of this object. Remember to align your views!!

Problem #10: Copy the isometric as shown and then complete the three views of this object. Remember to align your views!!

Riding a motorcycle around the world

This image is of a friend who is riding his motorcycle around the world. His name is Steve Harpt and before he began his journey, he was the principal of an alternative school in the southern African country of Botswana which is where he has lived since the 1980's. He has spent the last 1 1/2 years motorcycle touring through Asia. Now he is in South America. This picture was taken in Ushuaia, Argentina. Type this location into Google maps or Google earth so that you can see where this city is located.

IED Problems 6 and 7

Complete the multi-views of the object

Complete the multi-views of this object

IED Problems 4 and 5

Here are two more problems for you to do. Problem 4 has hidden detail lines that you need to draw in the  Front view and the Isometric in problem 5 should be very challenging to do!! You should copy the problems exactly as shown. Place the views equidistant from each other and ALWAYS align the views; the top view is exactly over the top of the front view and the front view is exactly to the left of the right side view. Don't forget to draw the axis lines.

Copy the drawing as shown and then complete the front and top view.

Copy the drawing as shown and then complete the isometric view.

IED Term 2 Drawing Assignment Problems 1, 2 and 3

These drawings will be updated throughout the term so please try to check out this site when you come into class every day.

Draw this EXACTLY as shown. Label the three different views; front, top and side. Use color pencil to shade each view.

Draw this as shown. In the top view (where the four corners are shown) complete the top view. Use the isometric view to help you see how the top view should appear. Label and shade the three views

This problem  gives you three views of the SAME object. The green view is the object as seen from the top. The yellow view shows the object from the front and the red view shows the object from the right side. Hint: this is a basic L shape with a notch cut out of it. Draw this object as shown and then sketch the Isometric of this shape in the upper right corner. Shade each side of the shape the same colors as are given in the top, front, and right side views.

IED Character Theme Assignment

Designing using a theme

Project: Pencil Box Project

Design Statement: You are to Design and finish the outside of your pencil boxes using a given theme and the principles of design.

Theme: Character

Introduction:

We all know this quote:

“I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.”(Martin Luther King, Jr.)

What does the word character mean? What does knowing this word have to do with Introduction to Engineering Design (IED)?

Lesson:

You are to define the word character by listing all of the traits that a person should possess in order to have character. You will have to do some research but if you are successful you will find at least 8 traits (we are calling them elements).

What you should do: Open a Microsoft word document and write the elements/traits that you think make up the word character. For each trait:

1.      Define it

2.      Give an example of how this trait/element is shown by someone who possesses it

3.      There should be 5 to 8 traits/elements

4.      Raise your hand when done so that you can review your work with the teacher

Save this document in your Z drive as your name character research (example Tom character research)

Lessons for Monday October 28, 2013

Good morning:

Please find your class below and read your instructions for today's work:

 

Period 1 and 3:

Civil Engineering and Architecture:

Continue to work on your Architecture model projects. Here are some suggestions on what you can do:

 

1.    Sketch out what each wall of your model will look like and give it dimensions.

2.    Make a schedule of work.

a.    How long will it take to cut out your walls from cardboard or foam core?

b.    How long will it take to glue your pieces together?

3.    Create more sketches of your design. Think about the different sides of your project. What will it look like from the back or from the left or right side?

4.    Please be ready on Tuesday to show me what you accomplished

5.    Good Luck!!

Period 2:

Principles of Engineering:

Please go to Khan Academy and view the following video’s on Mechanical advantage:

Mechanical advantage Part 1

Mechanical advantage Part2

Mechanical advantage Part 3

Here is the link:

http://www.khanacademy.org/science/physics/work-and-energy/mechanical-advantage/v/introduction-to-mechanical-advantage

 

Please go over the work that we did on Friday. Tomorrow there will be a Test on calculating the MA of Gears, Levers, and Pulley’s. Here are some suggestions on what you can do:

1.    Search Mechanical advantage lessons on the web. See if you can find another site besides Khan that can teach you about mechanical advantage. Write down the site and I will give you extra credit on the test if you list this site on the exam tomorrow

2.    Type in “Mechanical advantage of gears” problems in a search engine. Are there examples that you can practice for? Try the MA of Pulleys and the MA of levers. What did you find

Good Luck!!!

If you have never done a two point perspective before then click on this link and complete the activity. You will need a sheet of white paper, pencil, and ruler. Remember to always use light lines in the beginning and then go back and darken the lines that you need to see clearly

Here is the link:

https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1dio64682brQGBiojhzZaOzPh_GUrrOU7q93MDuI7gf4/edit?pli=1#slide=id.p13https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1dio64682brQGBiojhzZaOzPh_GUrrOU7q93MDuI7gf4/edit?pli=1#slide=id.p13

If you have done 2 point perspective drawing before , then click through these links below to see some good examples of buildings and interior design that have been posted on the web as well as work  that has been done by students in the past here at Nottingham.

When you are done with these links, then begin to create a 2 point perspective of your chosen model or architectural style.

Here is a very nice 2 point perspective from the web. According to the owner, this was done as a drawing assignment for an architecture class:

http://truthconquers.files.wordpress.com/2012/05/2punkts2.jpeg

This 2 point perspective was done by a Nottingham architecture student in 2007. He is now a business student in England:

IED Project for October

IED Wednesday October 2, 2013

Design Project: 

 Drawing equipment Organization for GW3

The Problem:  

 The work table in GW3 has multiple uses. When projects are being built, there are wooden boxes that can hold the tools so that the work space is not cluttered. When design work is being done, however, like coloring with markers or color pencils or sketching with pencils and erasers, there is no organizational aid.

Design Statement: 

Design and construct a system of organizing drawing equipment for the work tables in gw3

Constraints:

1.     It must hold 20 pencils upright

2.    It must hold 12 markers upright

3.    It must have corners that are 90 degree angles only

4.    It must be made using butt joints and lap joints

5.    It must be made of the following materials:

·         Foam core

·         Luan plywood

·         Hot glue and/or construction adhesive

·         Cardboard

6.    The design should follow the principles and elements of good design

7.    It must be built to last all this year

8.    The “foot print” of the design should not exceed 6” x 6”

9.    It must be completed by the end of October
