Introduction

My name is Courtney A. Vassell and I am a grade 11 student in my final year of study at


Meadowbrook High School pursing Technical Drawing at the Caribbean Secondary Education
Certificate (CSEC). I choose to do this subject because I believe it will be an asset for me in
matriculating to tertiary level study while assisting me greatly in diving into the world of work as
an Engineer. The name of my teacher is Mr. Vassell, he is very good at what he does but at times
he can be very strict.

This compilation seeks to give formative and summative feedback as to what I have learnt
through the two years of studying Technical Drawing.

Section 1 (Fundamentals of Technical Drawing)

Occupational Health safety and Environment


Occupational Health and Safety or commonly known as (OHS) is a multi disciplinary
field concerned with the following:

(i) The maintenance and promotion of workers’ health and working capacity; (ii) The
improvement of working environment and work to become conducive to safety and health;
(iii) Development of work organizations and working cultures in a direction which
supports health and safety at work and in doing so also promotes a positive social climate
and smooth operation and may enhance productivity of any venture.

The concept of working culture is intended in this context to mean a reflection of the
essential value systems adopted by parties concerned. Such a culture is reflected in practice
in the managerial systems, personnel policy, principles for participation, training policies
and quality management of the venture.

Components of an OH&S Management Plan

The components to an OH&S Management Plan are:

1. Risk management

2. Management of responsibilities.

3. OH&S training, including induction training.

4. Incident management and corrective action.

5. Workplace safety rules.

6. Safe Work Method Statements

7. Record and Document Management

Section 1 (Fundamentals of Technical Drawing)
Types of Lines, Symbols, Drawing Conventions and Codes

Types of Lines
Technical drawing Lines are used for different purposes to provide specific information for
designers, manufacturers or simply for those looking at the drawing. The person who will read
drawings have to learn what they mean. Line types are also a language type to communicate
between technical people.

Listed below are line types and their uses

Drawing Symbols
In Engineering Drawing there are symbols that are used to identify and to specify a drawing
orientation. Particularly in orthographic projection where there are two basic views that an
object can be drawn, these views are:

- First Angle Projection


- Third Angle Projection

Each projection has its unique way of layout.

For First Angle: The FRONT is at the top and the END is placed on the opposite side of
viewing i.e. if the end is being viewed from the left, it is then drawn on the right and if viewed
from the right it is drawn on the left. The PLAN is located below the FRONT.

For Third Angle: The FRONT is at the bottom and the END is placed on the side of viewing i.e.
if the end is being viewed from the left, it is then drawn on the left and if viewed from the right
it is drawn on the right. The PLAN is located above the FRONT.

5
Drawing Conventions
Drawing conventions are used because there are many common engineering details that are
difficult and tedious to draw. One such engineering feature is a screw thread. To draw this
would prove difficult to maintain consistency and uniformity as well as time consuming. The
BS308 standard is what guides or governs the use of engineering conventions.

Here are some commonly used conventions:

Drawing Standards and Codes
Standards and codes are very essential to ensuring that all drawing, details and productions are
done to international standards. That is anywhere in the world a drawing can be interpreted and
used without falling short of obtaining international standards.

Standard: A standard is a document that defines the characteristics of a product, process or


service, such as dimensions, safety aspects, and performance requirements.

Code: Laws or regulations that specify minimum standards to protect public safety and health
such as codes for construction of buildings. Voluntary standards are incorporated into building
codes

Specification: A set of conditions and requirements of precise and limited application that
provide a detailed description of a procedure, process, material, product, or service for use
primarily in procurement and manufacturing. Standards may be referenced or included in
specifications.

Some common standards are:

ANSI = American National Standards Institute

ISO = International Organization for Standardization

ASME = American Society of Mechanical Engineers

AISI = American Iron and Steel Institute

BS = British Standards

Building Codes are a set of rules that specify the standards for constructed objects such as
buildings and non-building structures. Buildings must conform to the code to obtain planning
permission, usually from a local council. The main purpose of building codes is to protect public
health, safety and general welfare as they relate to the construction and occupancy of buildings
and structures. The building code becomes law of a particular jurisdiction when formally
enacted by the appropriate governmental or private authority.

IBC = International Building Code

IECC = International Energy Conservation Code

IFC = International Fire Code

IPC = International Plumbing Code

Traditional Drawing Equipment and Instruments
Drawing Instruments are used to prepare neat and accurate Drawings. To a greater extent, the
accuracy of the drawings depends on the quality of instruments used to prepare them. The
following is the list of Drawing Instruments and other materials required. a) Drawing Board
b) T-square or Drafter (Drafting machine)
c) Set Squares (60°/30°) and 45°
d) Protractor
e) Drawing Instrument Box (containing compasses and trammel)
f) Drawing Sheet
g) Drawing Pencils
h) Drawing Pins/Clips

Reflection

Looking back at all the exercises I have done in Technical Drawing it is clear to me that I
have grasped a lot. At first my line qualities were extremely poor and my manipulation of my
instruments were not good at all. Now I have mastered using my instruments and have
somehow producing better line qualities. They are still not perfect but I have improved a lot.

Topics I loved

Well in all honesty there were some topics that I just really enjoyed such as:

- Blending of lines and curves


- Cycloids
- Isometric blocks
- Construction of triangles

Topics I did not like

Not everything in TD is easy and for that I did not like these topics

- Orthographic projection
10
- Sectioning
- Auxiliary Projection (lines in space)

I am currently in dialog with my teacher to see how best I can improve these areas. Overall I can
say that the learning experience with my teacher Mr. Vassell is a good one. He can be very hard
on us at times but we understand that quality must be maintained. I look forward to passing my
CXC with a minimum if a grade 2.

Summary

Technical drawing is the language of the technical trade. It embodies principles, standards and
codes that has to be adhered to in order to maintain international standards, reliability, safety
and of course aesthetic appeal. It is a direct bridge between the various technical fields such as
building construction, mechanical engineering, and other fields. Technical Drawing can be done
using the traditional way of manipulation of physical instruments or my using the computer
program – AutoCAD (computer aided drafting). All in all Technical Drawing is a useful subject
to have in today’s industry driven world.
