About this course
The course is focused on building up the ability of future designers to express their ideas through common communication language - technical drawing. During the course students train and improve their skills in spatial imagination and engineering way of thinking.
Learning outcomes
Be able to express oneself graphically - a basic means of communication for engineers. Train spatial imagination. Acquire knowledge and skills necessary for the following subjects ED2, ED3, ED4, MEM1, MEM2. Breakdown of machine components into basic geometric shapes - component analysis. Unify knowledge about creating drawing documentation (philosophy of displaying and dimensioning described within ISO GPS). Display and dimensioning of geometrically different components - increasing complexity and monitoring the function of the component.
Examination
Assessment Type: Graded Assessment (Classified Credit) Assessment Methods: • Continuous Assessment: Evaluation of practical assignments throughout the semester, specifically the creation of freehand sketches, CAD models, and technical drawings. Outputs must be submitted periodically according to the established deadlines. • Final Examination: The course concludes with a final test consisting of a theoretical questionnaire and a practical freehand sketch of a bolted joint. Grading Criteria: • The final grade is determined by the total score achieved in the final exam. • Grading follows the standard scale: A (Excellent), B (Very Good), C (Good), D (Satisfactory), E (Sufficient), F (Failed). Exam Form: In-person / Combined (written and practical drawing)
Course requirements
Writing instruments for hand sketching. Basic technical drawing course, basic high school knowledge is sufficient. Knowledge of CAD modeling is an advantage, but not necessary.
