MODULE III
Interpret Technical Drawing and Plans
Overview:
In this module, we will learn how to interpret technical drawings and plans that is
relevant to the field of Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning. We will learn the symbols that are
used in making our technical drawing understandable that complies to the standards.
Understand the diagrams given in a RAC system and types of plans that we can encounter.
Learning Outcomes:
At the end of this module, you should be able to:
 Analyze signs, symbol and data;
 Interpret work plans
Introduction
Plans are often for technical purposes such as architecture, engineering, or planning.
Their purpose in these disciplines is to accurately and unambiguously capture all the geometric
features of a site, building, product or component. Plans can also be for presentation or
orientation purposes, and as such are often less detailed versions of the former. The end goal of
plans is either to portray an existing place or object, or to convey enough information to allow a
builder or manufacturer to realize a design.
The term "plan" may casually be used to refer to a single view, sheet, or drawing in a set
of plans. More specifically a plan view is an orthographic projection looking down on the object,
such as in a floor plan.
The process of producing plans, and the skill of producing them, is often referred to
as technical drawing. A working drawing is a type of technical drawing, which is part of the
documentation needed to build an engineering product or architecture. Typically, in architecture
these could include civil drawings, architectural drawings, structural drawings, mechanical
drawings, electrical drawings, and plumbing drawings. In engineering, these drawings show all
necessary data to manufacture a given object, such as dimensions and angles.

Interpret Technical Drawing and Plans
Course Materials
3.2 Technical Drawing and Plan’ Terminologies to Remember
 Block Diagram –showing the basic information or lay-out of electrical diagram on

block form labelled
 Blueprint – a photographic print of technical drawing, with white lines and blue
background
 Construct- to build or assemble something by putting separate parts
 Data – factual information obtain form experiments or survey. Basis for making
calculation
 Dimension – measurement of one or more direction such as length, width and
height.
 Electrical –involving electric cables or circuits powered by electricity
 Interpret – to ascribe particular meaning of significance to something
 Mechanical – a system involving the pipe lines, and mechanical components or
drawing conclusion. Ordered way
 Pictorial Diagram – showing the basic form or lay-out of pictures of actual
component.
 Plan – method of doing something that work out in advance
 Schematic Diagram – showing the basic form or lay-out of electrical symbols.
 Sign – something that indicate the rule to follow
 Symbol – something that represents abstraction.
 Analyze – to examine something in great detail in order to understand it better or
discover more about it.

3.4 Blueprint Plan
A framework gives you a solid foundation to build your project on top of, with an easy-to-
use grid, sensible typography, useful plug-in, and even a style sheet for printing. Various base
materials have been used for blueprints. Paper in common choice; for more durable prints linen
was sometimes used, but with time, the linen print would shrink slightly. To combat this problem,
printing on imitation vellum and, later, polyester film (Mylar) was implemented.

MODULE 4
Maintain Tools and Equipment
Overview:
Construction tools and equipment suffer a lot of wear and tear. Hence, it is important to
maintain them regularly. This will help increase the service life as well as the performance of the
equipment. Precautionary maintenance of tools and equipment will also help reduce unwanted
expenses related to broken or faulty equipment. Small problems generally lead to bigger issues
if left unattended. Perform all cleaning and repair work as soon as you see any signs of damage
or neglect. This will keep your instruments from failing you at crucial moments.
Learning Outcomes:
At the end of this module, you should be able to:

 Check the conditions of tools and equipment
 Perform basic preventive maintenance
Introduction
If you take care of your tools, they will return the favor. Proper care and routine maintenance of
your hand tools and power tools makes any home improvement or repair project easier, safer
and more successful. Proper tool care also saves you money because the better they’re cared
for, the longer they’ll last. There are ways like how to keep these tools, how to lubricate them
and how to check for damages acquired by the tools upon using it.

MODULE 4
Maintain Tools and Equipment
Course Material
4.2 Classification of non-functional and functional tools
Tools are very useful to us in our homes especially to our job. But tools that are no longer
functional may cause harm.
 Make an inventory of functional and non-functional tools in your shop.

 Classify your tools according to its function
 Method of identifying non-functional tools and equipment
 Visual Inspection. It refers to the visual observation of an expert on the appearance of
the tools and equipment.
 Functionality. Vibration or extra noise from the operation means problem on parts and
accessories started to develop.
 Performance. When there is something wrong with the performance of either hand tools
or equipment they need an immediate repair or mainternance.
 Power supply (For electrically operated only). Failure to meet the required power supply,
malfunction will occur in the part hand tools or equipment.
 Person’s involved. It refers to the technical person who has the knowledge and skills
about the technology.
4.3 Classification of tools and equipment according to their uses
 Measuring tools
 Holding tools
 Cutting tools
 Driving tools
 Boring tools
 Electrical equipment
 Boring tools
 Cutting tools
 Testing tools
 Miscellaneous tools/Instrument/Equipment
Non-functional tools and equipment are those that are not able to perform their regular function
because impaired and damage part.

4.4 Support material
 Inventory Sheet
 Report Card
 BAE CODE LEGEND
 Rac BOR.T-0008-AUGER BIT
 CLASSIFICATION OF LUBRICANTS
Before using the tools and equipment in the installation of pipes, you have first to know
the types of lubricants to use. Lubrication prevents the rusting and malfunctioning of tool and
equipment.
4.5 Lubricants
There are four types of lubricants, and these are:

1. Liquid, including emulsion and suspension
2. Solid
3. Grease and
4. Paste
 Liquid lubricants made from natural water. These lubricants inhibit rust, salt and acids.
 Water can also be used as a lubricant mixed with other base oils.
 Mineral oil which is derived from crude oil is a very good quality of lubricant.
 Vegetable oil which is primarily triglyceride esters derived from plants and animals can
also serve the purpose as a lubricant and is environment friendly.
Purpose for Lubricating

 keeps moving parts apart
 reduces friction
 transfers heat more efficiently
 carries away contaminant debris
 transmits power more efficiently
 protects against wear
 prevents corrosion
