Description

Advanced Level Engineering Drawing

2 sessions of 1.5 hours weekly

This course will enable the students to:

  • explore further and confirm the direct relevance of engineering drawing to the varied design applications found in engineering and technology in general;
  • further the ability to communicate engineering information by engineering drawings;
  • develop further the skill of representing design concepts and solutions using both freehand and accurate drawings;
  • develop an accurate level of draughtsmanship that respects established draughting codes, practices and conventions;
  • develop a knowledge of two-dimensional (2D) computer-aided draughting (CAD).

The Engineering Drawing Advanced Examination is made up of a continually assessed CAD component and a written examination of two papers.  The content includes:

  • The cone and the conic sections
  • Cycloidal curves
  • Spiral curves
  • Helices and screw threads
  • Involute Spur Gears
  • Coplanar loci of points on moving mechanisms
  • Cams
