OUTCOMES AND OBJECTIVES Outcome 1: Upon completion of this course, students will develop isometric views from given principle views.
Objectives: Given a drawing with principle views, the students will be able to:
- Create the isometric view on the proper angle
- Construct the proper visible lines
- Eliminate geometry that would not be seen
Outcome 2: Upon completion of this course, students will develop principle views from given isometric views.
Objectives: Given a drawing with an isometric view, the student will be able to:
- Construct the proper alignment of the principle views
- Construct hidden lines if necessary
- Demonstrate the proper projection of the views
Outcome 3: Upon completion of this course, students will use descriptive geometry techniques to develop views.
Objectives: Given a project, students will be able to:
- Project points between views
- Construct true length of a line
- Develop true view of a plane
Outcome 4: Upon completion of this course, students will develop sections from a given part drawing.
Objectives: Given a drawing, students will be able to:
- Develop a cutting plane at given location
- Construct a section view
- Develop the proper cross hatching to a section view
- Construct a grid section
- Construct a radial section
Outcome 5: Upon completion of this course, students will construct an engineering drawing with dimensions and information to meet standards.
Objectives: Given a part, the students will be able to:
- Construct the proper dimensions to build the part
- Develop extension lines for the dimensions
- Create necessary notes to complete the drawings
- Calculate hole clearance for threaded holes
- Identify features of threaded fasteners
Outcome 6: Upon completion of this course, students will add tolerances to given dimensions.
Objectives: Given dimensions, the students will be able to:
- Calculate the fit tolerance of a hole/shaft assembly
- Calculate tolerance stack ups
- Identify geometric dimensioning and tolerance symbols
Outcome 7: Upon completion of this course, students will construct an assembly drawing and add proper information to complete the drawing.
Objectives: Given parts that make an assembly, the students will be able to:
- Assemble the parts to make a complete drawing
- Create balloons to identify the assembly drawing
- Develop a parts list for the assembly drawing
- Construct necessary features to complete the assembly drawing.
